Yes.
My ex was a chill stoner who got radicalized on the internet and became an abusive alcoholic raging racist, then got sober but is still an angry right wing asshole.
I was selfish/self-centered as fuck as a teenager and gained patience and perspective over time, I think most people do change in that way, become more aware of others, nicer. Not everyone, obviously. But most.
You probably already do, I know I'm not the same person I was years ago. I think it's a good thing to be conscious of your personality going forward. My take is, you are you, therefore whatever you do is something you would do. So do what you want, don't overthink it.
Not properly.
Many theories suggest people have their main personality but it's possible to mimic other ones in certain scenario.
If you want to go deeper search for Jung's cognitive functions, also MBTI is good as an initial approach on the theme ( also [email protected] ).
