I cannot think of a way that changing your personality for acceptance could ever be fair. You need to be accepted and loved for the person you are. Nobody has the right to try to change you. It is not right for anyone to ask you to change your personality. Personality is a big part of who you are. Taking that away from you could never be the right thing to do.

Hey sapphire2127! Changing personality for someone is made by a lot of people!They think they have found love but most of the time afterward they are disappointed. In my opinion doing so is a stupid thing!If they don't like,love you the way you are would you think they will love you the way you have changed?They will just use you and trow you away when they are done. The good thing about it is having some nice moments.In my opinion it isn't worth it. Happy mylotting

If it's for the better yes, it is okay as long as it will make you a better person. After all we are bound for changes, nothing is constant, and if that really works for the relationship then its a plus. As for me, I wouldn't mind changing my personality for better that is what we should do, change our ways in order to be loved by someone or to be loved the people around you.

Sweetie, you should never change just for someone to love you. The person get to know you and when the time comes that he/she meet the real you, what then? Never change, always be yourself. TATA.

in my opinion, either yes or no. yes because it is difficult to not be accepted and loved so to change personality becomes the price to pay. if no it is because the person prefer to love a more natural kind and in that case the relationship won't work.

As cliché as this sounds, I believe that people should love you for who you really are. If you change your personality for someone to love you, then they're not really loving you; they're loving the person they want you to be, and that is not who you are. Sure, compromises are acceptable but they work both ways (meaning both people need to make compromises) but completely changing your personality is simply not acceptable.

it is still fair but do it 70-30. i mean dont change 70% of your personality because your original you is better than fake you. and 30% is for you to change just a bit of yourself to being comfortable with him/her.imagine if i just smoke in front of my new buddy that hate smokers?..it's war and end of the 'world' is it?...change for better personality and stay with the real self will save the day and the day after tomorrow..

You need to be loved for what you are and not what you are going to be. A persons personality can be changed for good. If you love a person and change him / her and then they change back to the same personality, will you like it.

But I have also seen people change their personalities for the one they love. I used to drink & smoke before I met my GF who is presently my wife. But i changed myself for her. But everytime you change thier expectations alos increase.

i think we must be ourselves ^^ when you say you love someone is bcs you love everything about that person^^ i just think someone should change some attitudes like those guys that for example are always in fights in the street ok they are used to do those kind of things but they should avoid that to dont let their gfs worry so much or should try to avoid be so violent you know in that i agree they change a bit their attitude but not who they really are^^ we must always be ourselves and if the person really love us they will accept us anyway^^

it is not fair to chane for some one to love you and to accept you ,if somebody didn't accept you better find some one who accepts the way you are.
