    1st of all change is inevitable so change is going to happen anyways, so why wouldnt you change for someone.. you can change the way you eat

    you can change the way you dress(if you want)

    if you do something for so long then it changes the way you do things.. If its for the better then its fine.. but say smoking of drinking; no I wouldnt.

    I believe that we cahnge all the time. We just dont realize it for a while. So we naturally change from being around people, I say yes I can change for someone

    Yes. I would have to be a change I WANTED...

    I don't know that I would, of course... the someone would have to have a very good reason, and be VERY important to me...

    but the central ingredient would STILL have to be that I wanted to change.

    Besides, I'm pretty close to perfect now... what could they possibly want me to change? Hah. }:>

    edit: I just read your answers so far... Not a very flexible group

    over all, are we? (I like that about us!)

  • I could make some changes for someone, but not change for them. I did that once and I was miserable. It is not good to change unless you do it for yourself because you want to.

    Yes,I changed alot when I got married,more responsible,less selfish.When I became a mother I changed even more for them,not a completely different person but my priorities changed.

    No... if they dont like me for what I am then there is no use in changing for them.. Be the person YOU want to be not what someone else wants.

    I say take me the way I am or don't take me at all.

    But I don't feel you should have to change for anyone, and I don't believe that even if you wanted to that you could. People are set in their ways and will repeat patterns in their life. Even if people that want to change its too hard

    up to a certain point and only small stuff, but my core, the real me is always me....that should be what attracts someone to me....I do not see the need to change that much, maybe adapt to a new circumstance but not change all.

  • I don't think we can change. we can deny our true selves for a period of time, then when our soul can no longer take it it's over, and our true self reemerges. I don't think people change but just become more of who we truly are.

    Source(s): some times it just takes the right person to bring our true self out.

    it depends on what im changing because im not going to change my personality or something like that but if its something simple like for example i would have to stop eating bacon then i might possibly do it
