do people really change because of love?

there will be certain changes in a person when he or she falls in love.... u wud expect certain things from ur partner....so u wud change urselves according to ur partner....but such a change is not appreciable....it can make us lose frens.....

You don't have to change just to get love or just because of love. Stay as what you are. But there are some bad habbits we need to control just to keep love stay because we need to please others to show love. We don't need to change what we are but change something in your bad habbit.

that true love changes u ... but it depends on person to person.. it can be good as well as bad for others point of view..

Yes, I think people in love change voluntarily for the better to strengthen their relationships even more. The changes should come from the person himself, and not demanded by his partner.

Well I don't know about asking nothing, sometimes we do have expectations of one another, however YES I do think people in a lot of cases change. I would like to think I have never treated my friends any differently however I know once I was married I had friends not call as much and certainly didn't come over as much. I also had a friend that made a point of wanting to meet for lunch at least once sometimes twice a month but after she found romance I have never been called again and I have never even met the man in her life. So in answer to your question although I don't think it should have to be I say Yes to your question. I think if your partner asks you to give up your friends it's a sign of being insecure for sure...

yes that is very true peopeldo change when they are in love, they tend to qualify love with changing themselves and making the other person happy and there's this thing called fear of being dumped or left behind by that person. thats reality especially women, they tend to change and turn themselves to this girl that the person has in his mind his ideal girl so that the guy will love her more. but as for me, before i was like that. i was just fooling myself and guess what he just left me after all. now, ive realized when a guys loves me and accepted me for who i am then he truly loves me after all. a guy who doesnt want even a single aspect of yourself indeed loves you tuly love syou unconditionally and thats something that every girl should look for not the qualified love.

I do think people change, but I don't think people have to change to please their partner. You have to compromise to make relationships work (compromise is needed to make anything work really), so that's a concious change. They want to do it to make things easier. However, I also think, people change just by being involved with their partner. I do not think that this is as drastic as the other changes one in a relationship make experience. I think the qualities of the other person just wear off on them.

I know being in love hasn't changed me except I am a bit more tired these days as I stay up late chatting to my boyfriend. I think that some people become totally obsessed by their new partner and ignore all their friends and that is why people say they have changed. I can't do that though as I have a full life with my children already so can't just become obsessed with my new love.

yeah thats right I think when you REALLY love somebody though, you even try to anticipate what they would like. Just to make it as perfect as possible. When you feel like thats what you want to do for somebody, its true love. Putting somebody else's needs first. Even if its just for awhile, its the true test I think.
