by personality, I mean character. And by that I mean someone's willingness to be good.
So even when they have periods of time where they struggle with things like (just an example) depression which may or may not cause them to behave a bit different than they used to.
For example, their normal personality is to be an active person, always finishing work on time, never missing appointments, always being an outdoor person, etc
But then due to that, they change and instead become super isolated, distressed and maybe even lazy.
but their willingness to still strive and become better remains. So even when they are terrible they have the hope to be better and they try everyday even if they fail.
And personality is a point of "becoming" it's not something set/fixed. I think.
so when people say beauty fades, personality doesn't, they don't refer to every single habits that make up that person but rather the main thing of it.. like the willingness/ goal of becoming a better person than they were yesterday.

True, personalities change that is why divorce rates are so high. I also think thats why women loose interest in their spouse they liked him more for his personality vs looks but after a few years he stops treating her the way he used to and might have a porn addiction. The woman no longer is happy their is no sex she she puts on like 50 lbs. And eventually files for divorce cause she was attracted to his personality than looks. I will never be with someone who im more attracted to their personality than looks. thats why i have to be attracted to thier spirirt vs those his looks and personality
Who you are at the core doesn't change. That's why we as a society shame rapists, domestic abusers, pedophiles, people who have such hate in their hearts, people who are so evil they steal from charity, people who are disgusting and abuse or steal from vulnerable old people and the disabled etc...
Small actions might change as people mature or grow as a person, but who you are at the core will always be who you are.

No, personality does not change over time. You may be focusing on superficial behaviors, which certainly can change, but personality, e. g., the extent to which someone is passive-aggressive or dysthymic, dies not change. When you are young, you very much want to believe that everyone can and will change and we will all become better people, but experience will tech you otherwise.
That's true, but personalities can also develop and improve over time. Looks rarely ever do. They tend to go downhill over time.

No, I disagree with your statement. Beauty fades, but personality gets better with time. It's all about connecting with your partner. Physical attraction helps but it can only get you so far. Just imagine being attracted to someone that you think is cute or hot but then find out that they're boring as hell or tha you both just don't get along. So that's based off of looks alone. But if you meet someone and have this same level of connection and chemistry, it just makes sense and it feels good
Personality is more fundamental, and is unlikely to change much over time unless something extreme occurs, generally something negative and highly emotional.
What they mean is your soul, your essence. It is something that goes beyond physical beauty.
Personality changes too. You do grow as a person.
But the memories remain there. The memories you share, the stupid things you do for each other. It makes you strike to keep loving them.The ones who say "beauty fades" are the bitter ones with a shitty personality in the first place anyway.
People who say this tend to be self righteous about not seeking sexual chemistry.
Now look at how beautiful I am, and the people of my country are even more beautiful.
Personality becomes entrenched. . . All parts of it. D:
Thought it was" Beauty fades but brains last forever"
Because people can be stupid.
There is no such thing as permanence.
Thats a quote from romantics..
Because their are living in ignorance
Change isn't quite the same as fade.
People don't generally change their personality.
True...
I agree 😃
