Q. "When dating, how do I maintain my identity without having to change who I am because of their "expectations" of who I 'should' be? 

A. That's on you. Irregardless of another's expectations, you be clear about who you are, your boundaries, etc, and this notion of 'having to change' is called codependency. You might benefit from working with a Counselor to help  you work though this. We can all learn, grow and be flexible, yet instead ofchanging to meet someone else's expectations....run!!
