I would like to know how you feel about changing yourself to please others?

Why is it people stereotype one another and claim others are sick or stupid or have behavioral problems if they don't react or conduct themselves the exact same way as everyone else? I mean how can anyone tell someone else how they are supposed to feel. Everyone is different for a reason aren't we? Wouldn't it be a really dull world if we all reacted exactly the same way to every single situation?I would like to know how you feel about changing yourself to please others?
yeah i agree with you. usually people do this because they feel frightened. my therapist always says not to label people because when you do, you're giving them more reasons to act the way they do. plus, its human nature to be greedy and rude.I would like to know how you feel about changing yourself to please others?
my teacher told me about this once, he simply put it ';you should never go out of your way to make others comfortable, if either of u cant be compatible without one changing, then you not meant to be together';
You were born a really unique person, you spend most of your life trying to improve that person, to be the best you can.

a the end of the day, you have to live with youself, but I think some people need to be needed and to fit in and that is why they change, they feel it will help the situation, when in fact I think it hinders their growth, as they tend to find out soon enough that it does not work
i have noticed this too. i find it very pathetic to asume something is wrong with them simply because they act differant. they are saying things are desieases when its just behavoral. it irritates me alot when people show the lack of inteligence to comprehend the true facts.



and i agree with you too.

Can you give me an example of changing yourself to please only yourself?

They don't...you are...you're making a claim that isn't so. People largely claim others are sick or stupid when they say sick or stupid things...otherwise everyone would do exactly what they want and simply claim ';you don't give me the freedom to be myself'; which is sick and stupid because it endorses crime as ok.



%26gt;%26gt;I mean how can anyone tell someone else how they are supposed to feel.



Because when a person feels good about killing someone, for example, it's also wrong to say there's no problem.



%26gt;%26gt;Everyone is different for a reason aren't we?



Being different and choosing to act without regard aren't the same.



%26gt;%26gt;Wouldn't it be a really dull world if we all reacted exactly the same way to every single situation?



Yes, and that can't happen because humans aren't robots.



Are you saying you would have a problem with everyone deciding to act exactly the same regarding rape, murder, and terrorism and not ever do it??



(didn't think so)
I won't and don't change my self to please others in most instances. I might change something minor if it was to please my partner like trying to be a little neater because it would make her life happier but changing the basic person that I am? No, That would change the person that she fell in love with. The only time that I would make drastic changes is if I felt that some of my behaviors were causing me not not have a fulfilled a life as I would like. But I would have to make the decision, That's why people will tell you that you can't lose weight, quit smoking or using drugs or liquor for someone else, you have to do it because you want to or you won't be successful in the long run.
I would never change myself to fit into someones beliefs. And for anyone else who believes that changing themself to suit someone else then they are not being true to themselves. As for stereotyping someone because of them being a bit different to everyone else is because the person or people who are calling names may not understand the person and the persons needs, and may be afraid of the person because they are different.
Its the most unhealthy thing to do to change ourselves for others in order to be more acceptable to them.I feel as long as we don't injure others with words and actions we must stay true to our own selves.Otherwise we will feel very unhappy and puppets to be manipulated by others.We will also deny our own happiness in order to satisfy others.We need to celebrate our differences and individuality as necessary elements for mutual growth.
it sucks. never do it. ppl should like you the way you are. unless you were born a poser, of course.
I refuse to change anything about me to please others.



By the grace of God, I am what I am.



Except it or don't bother me. I'm happy with the person that I am.
