Ok, so, a bit of a story time

I have a friend, let's call her C. C has a girlfriend, lets call her P. They both like anime. C is like me, she doesn't get crushes on anime characters. P does, she falls for a bunch of anime characters

C told me that she wanted to change the way she acted to get 'noticed more' by P. A lot of the characters P falls for are jumpy, happy, energetic, smiley. C finds it hard to be like that.

C is faced with 2 problems at the moment
1) wanting to act like P's crushes to get more attention
2) not really feeling loved because she isn't like the people P falls for

She asked P who some of her anime crushes are. C told me that she has literally searched up characters' personalities, so she knows what she has to change about herself.

I don't want her to change. She doesn't want to change herself either. But she feels the need to. She wants to be loved more, even thought they already have such a strong relationship.

I want to help her be herself

I don't know how to.

Help, please. We don't want her to change
