I think couples should always be willing to change when their lover does. Or, at very least, be willing to accept the other person's change and compromise.

True but, you should be liked or loved for who you are. The only way change will come about is if you both want it & are willing to change like you said.

its a really interesting question. i think that your lover should love you for who you really are without needing to change anything in you. but if you want to change for him to better yourself then by all means go for it!

in a perfect world it would be great to change everything that you do not like about your loved one. But then I think that we would get bored and it would cause problems. I love my hubby just the way he is.. annoying habits and all.

I don't think people necessarily need to change for the people they love. They should love you for who you are...But there is always compromise. A compromise is the next best thing--there's no reason to change.

If you fell in love with someone why would you want to change them. They are who they are and that the person you fell in love with. If you feel you need to change that person it's probably no true love.

I feel that if a couple disagrees on points, they need to meet midway on it. People shouldn't change themselves competely for others because each person has their own identity. Small things like minor likes or dislikes are ok to be changes. But its not good to make major changes in one's personality for any one.

There is nothing stubern in life. Life itself is subjected to changes day by day. Then why should I hesitate to change if my love asks me to do so if it is not wrong. I can change my habbits if she likes not.We are made for each other.

Yes, I think you should at least be willing to try to change. If that change doesnt work for you then hey at least you or they can say they tried.

i believe i should coz i'm not perfect. to make a relationship work, you gotta change some things somehow. no two people are alike and there'll always be rough edges you have to improve on so you'd fit. harmony isn't obtained coz of total compatibility since there's nothing as such, it's achieved by your willingness to change, improve, and compromise.

Only if you have bad habits, and it is a good change :)

You don't change for others, you change for yourself. However, if it is going to cause problems with what you want to change, then you might want to try, or compromise.

You don't need to change for that person. It's best to just be yourself. Of course ... you need to make some stuff to make things work. Like ... don't be a jackass with her ... if you are one. :)
