    Yes. People do really change for love. For love of THEMSELVES.

    If you're living wrong, have addictions, have failed at parenting, jobs, relationships, the only path IS change. And the reason to change is NOT ANOTHER PERSON. It's YOU.

    If you change to make yourself a better person, you will wind up being better at everything you do: parenting, working, being a friend, lover, SO.

    But if the only impetus is a SO, the change will usually only be temporary. Deep change comes from inside: a deep conviction that change is necessary to survive and thrive. Love of another person might only be passing. Love of self, in the most positive, thriving sense, should be eternal. And from self-love, all positive love relationships blossom.

    The stupid ones do. Like cousin is getting rid all of his guns because his "girlfriend" don't like guns. But my cousin Grown up in the military life spent 25 years in military and is a works for the government

    But he is going to get rid of them. You know what I said right on front of both of them. I said "Hey Tony, why not do this? Give me your guns. I'll hold on to them and when you're done with her. You can have them back.

    I said that on Christmas day to him. She gave the look and I gave her the "You wanna go bitch" look, cause I'll fuck you up

    Only if they are willing to change for that person , if they aren’t willing to do so , then they are shit out of luck and just wasting their time thinking they will change for them. Someone basically what you see is what you get , if you don’t like what you see you are best to walk the other way. Because of your can’t accept someone for who they are as a person , don’t expect them to accept you as a person. Love only grows when 2 people choose each other and accept each others’ flaws , Not one person on this planet is perfect , we are all imperfect people , So asking someone to change to appease you , is just a waste of time because they won’t change to appease you , if they do? Then something is wrong with them lol

    Nobody changes for someone else! People only change when they, themselves are motivated to change for whatever reason. So when it comes to a lifetime partner or spouse, the best philosophy is, "What you see is what you get."

    You know, there's a saying: A man marries a woman hoping she'll never change. A woman marries a man hoping to change him. BOTH will be disappointed!

  • Aims to share my wisdom on relationships! So, here's the deal with changing for love: yes and no! 😜 People can certainly evolve and grow when they're in love, driven by the desire to make things work. But it’s crucial that changes come from a genuine place, not just to please someone else. 🚦 Red flag alert if you feel pressured! It’s about becoming a better version of yourself, not transforming into someone you're not. Keep it real and sprinkle a bit of love magic! 🪄💖

    Some may become the best version of themselves but a lot of times change isn’t genuine. Depends if it’s a negative trait yes if they WANT to but be aware of fakers. Unfortunately some people pretend to be someone else to win someone over. That’s not genuine and eventually that mask will wear off. Either you’ll be miserable keeping up the persona all the time or they will see it’s not who you really are.

    They do, and in a certain respect, they should.

    It's basically two universes coming together. When one enters into a deep and intimate relationship with another person, they each becoming more in tune with the inner life of the other. Each sees areas of strength that become stronger, but they also become more aware of deficiencies and shortcomings that need to be corrected or challenged. And yes, it is perfectly okay for one partner to call out flaws and weaknesses in the other. They must do so tactfully and charitably, in the right context, and with the right motivations.

    Additionally, as they become more intimate, they'll naturally change how they think about and do things. They become more sensitive to the wants and needs of the other person and want to - and ought to - act more accordingly.

    Love can motivate people to improve themselves to become a better version of themselves. A man might start dressing better. A woman might exercise more to improve her appearance.

    But when you pin all your motivation on someone else’s approval then you are setting yourself up for a dangerous outcome. They might reject you anyway and then that can lead to depression.

    You should change because you want to improve yourself period.

    I confess I was extremely motivated by a young woman to change in when I was in college. I out on 10 lbs of muscle, dressed better, did ā€œfunā€ activities just so I could come off as more interesting to her, etc.

    She ended up meeting her future husband right in front of me. She proceeded to friendzone me and I was too naive and inexperienced to understand it the time. It was pure hell.

    Sometimes people will change temporarily, but after a while they snap from stress and revert back to their actual selves.

    Most people stay themselves the entire time.

    Trying to change someone is a foolish mindset, if you do not like who they are as is, then do not get into a relationship with them.

    Not really change, but a love response in general.

    Not many know themselves to consider that is how they are. No one wants to open up to love. It's an unknown more than a change
