In life that's all you can be is who you really are...I have been told a billion times ''Just be yourself'' well 5 months down they road they try to change you into someone (They) want you to be...So I've learned to stay the same 24/7 no matter what if someone doesn't like me so be it go hangout with someone you do like.

We all have good and bad in us (some men cheat on there wife yet will take a bullet to save someone he doesn't know) life is what you make it and make out of it...But DON'T ever change who you are for anyone else cause then you really aren't you right.

your right op sometimes in life being yourself is boring an those on line think that they can be someone else that their not boring ...
why change yourself is a good ? ... now their are many that you would like to see change like for instance murders etc ... but what if that is them being their self ... hard junkies ... sure would like to see them do better in their lives but they may be that till they die ... it really is like you can lead a horse to water but you can't make them drink... now recently meeting someone new being myself ... I was called a character ... I laughed it off ... really should have asked which one lol and some times I say things aloud I shouldn't ...so if you are not yourself then who are you really ... things may change but more then likely we our still ourselves ... or you are great at faking who you are... especially in person...


Well, I think there is a difference between being yourself and having an addiction or having a psychological problem like being a murderer. I think when it comes to change; its something you must want to do. For instance I went back to school after joining the military so when I left the military; I could get a job; not because a guy wanted me to. After my car accident; I gained weight and then lost it because I didn't want to endanger my health. I did these things to improve me not because it was demanded of me. Other than coming to a few social sites like this; my computer is used mainly for research on how to fix things in the house, or create things, etc. I think things like that help improve me as a person. If people like the changes its all cool but if they don't; I really could care less. Life is too short not to do what makes you happy and as far as I am concerned that is my number 1 priority.

Me personally,I don't change for people,if they're to be any changes or attempts at it ,its because I feel it's best for ME!!

I understand and agree with alot what you said,but with that statement,"or you are great at faking who you are",well to me it really is practicing positive or good behavior,they way I want to be ECT,I practice it,it works for me,we're never going to change entirely,cause we're not suppose too,but yeah,I just try practice those stuff ya know!!

Be yourself,it sounds really good and genuine doesn't it? Well guess what,I'm here to tell you that sometimes, that's a load of horse chit,I know some you folks going eat me alive now,scared ,it's always best for us to strive to be better,to grow,we're not perfect and we'll never be at lest not in THIS life,so how are we going to accomplish this by stay the same??But there are times when some of us need to be ourselves,example,pretending to be what your not to impress other people,the opposite sex ECT,but the list is endless with stuff people do that I'll make you go,why doesn't he/change,totally classless acts ECT!! I'm all ear and I'm always open to learning,what are you guys opinion on being yourself? I'm gonna pop me some corn and be right back lol!bigsmile drinker

Be yourself, for the people you love and care about
for others you always have to pretend to be something you are not :smile:

Being yourself is not always good enough for them
