Does love make you a better person?

Just being able to love makes you a better person. If you love yourself that makes it easier for others to like and then love you. On occasion only does a great relationship improve a wayward soul. The norm does not bear that out. Hope that this gives you an idea of what you seek!

I definitely think love makes us better people. I love my children and want them to be proud of me and the things I do, therefore I try harder. I don't believe bad people suddenly become good people however, I think it takes more than that.

Yes I really think it does because when you fall in love you try so hard to please the other person , So you are not thinking about just yourself xx

yes,love have opened my eyes,made me to be much better,gave me the strength to go farther,to pass over my problems,to be more confident in my powers!

PErsonally i do agree that love really changes a person to become better and i can a test to that myself. Ive been with my boyfriend for almost two years now and i guess because with that i was able to become focus on what ive wanted in my life. Everytime he appreciates me and the things i do, i also learned to appreciate myself more and the things i do. I become more inspired in reaching my goal since he has always been apart of every goal i have in life. Because of him, i learned to love my life more and realized my potential as a person.

I don't think that love makes you a better person. I know people who are in love and still aren't that nice of people. It just depends on the person, some people are just not nice.

I think it is God's love that makes you a better person...knowing that no matter what..the is One who will always love you ...thats what makes a person good:)+

I think love can change a person for the better. I have seen people that were just womanizers that would cat call any pretty woman and try his best to get with her. But when he finally met the person he wanted to be with...it stopped. Because he found what he was looking for. Because he realizes there is something else to a woman besides her body. I think in that way, yes, people do become better people because it makes the person stop and see people for who they really are and gives the person a sense of compassion that they may have been lacking before.

I don't tend to believe HollyWood and love. In the real world love has so many meanings and levels it's hard to figure it all out, but I think that people are still who they are and make choices. If falling in love makes them better it is because they chose to be better or they choose to stop the activities that made them look bad, but at any time that can change with a thought. So I would say love can make us fake it pretty good for a time.

i think it is different in different circumstances. for example, i a better when i am in love as it gives me a purpose to get up in the mornings and i find i am very happy. however in some relationships people become violent and therefore love is a very bad thing for them

I think generally, yes. Love is chemical and can control the mind. I am very much in love, and it makes me feel great. I am generally a nicer person because of this. I don't think you could take a serial killer, and turn them into a saint with love, though.

i dnt see it on someone else but i had experience it...love change me and made me a good person...perhaps because when u love someone else u learn how to sacrifice on how u going to take care of ur love one

I think that is just something invented by the movies to make life seem more romantic and wonderful than it actually is. I dont' think you can change a personality, but people are more likely to be in a good mood if they are in love.

i think so...coz ur in love it brings out the best in you....

yes...it happens....love totally changes a person...it makes a person polite, more caring, more sensitive, more at heart for others...

Love makes all the difference. Once any person has a loving support system it will make big changes in their lives.

Depends on what our idea of love is. LOve in general, to the entire world we live in makes us better people. But love for specific people can have both positive and negative effects on us. The moment we claim we love a person, we tend to be possessive and become susceptible to more hurt. Some people say that it's all part of life, to be loved, to be hurt, and to survive the upas and downs. All such personal love are necessarily selfish, but if we look at life, all our deeds are selfish in one way or the other. So, we have a choice, finally, to make ourselves better through all kinds of love, if we know how to channelise it.

I believe so. When you love someone, you want to be better for them. You want more than anything to see them smile or to hear them laugh, and if that means changing yourself for the better, then why not?

I'm not sure if love makes you a better person, But it does change you.. It makes you care more about other people then just yourself and thats a good thing..So I guess that makes people better.. BUt you can fall in love with the wrong person and can change you for the worse if they pull you into the wrong life style.

Yes i think that love makes you a btter person becas love is a gift of god so if you fall in love then you r near to god so it is better to be near to god.
