Could you phrase that better? Anyways, I think you should support her, and if she's doing something you don't like, have a nice, long chat with her. Compromise, do something that makes you both happy. Don't just be in this relationship for one thing and one thing only, she needs you there when she's happy, when she's ok, and when she's sad/upset, and especially when she's upset or angry. What do you mean by you think she has changed though? And a relationship is definitely a step up from a friendship, so I'm still quite puzzled by what you are trying to portray.

when you start going out with someone. your relationship completely changes. things start getting more serious, and you do forget how to be friends. Thats what happened to my ex, we are no longer friends anymore. So just try and keep everything the same and dont change anything. and if you break up, i have on word of advice. DONT TALK TO HER NON STOP AND TELL HER THAT YOU MISS HER, they hate that. wait for her to start talking to you again

what i mean by the fact that she has changed is that she feels she has some sort of role to play she wants to act like a girl friend but doesnt realy know how she takes all the relationship jokes to seriosly like every one says that its always the mans fault and she lives by that she thinks that the gf is supose to hit the bf when he does somthing wrong and she doesnt realize that they mean a playful hit as a joke not like real violence

does this make any sence?
its real hard to explain

So basically she's acting as if she's supposed to act a certain way, like the model girlfriend, rather than being herself?

just tell her that she doesn't need to impress you to keep the relationship. just tell her that you like/love (which ever applies to you) her for who she is and she doesn't have to be someone different to impress you. hopefully she will understand and be herself.

Wait, are you saying she physically harms you? Well, if thats the fact, you better convince to start acting better (and stop slapping you, or what ever she does), and not take being a girlfriend as a role to act out. Explain to her that she should just be herself, and that you really like her, but not the way she is acting. Tell her you love her all the time, but you love her even more when she acts like herself. If she doesn't listen to you, this relationship could be on the verge of failure. :/
