Hi, It's hard for me to understand the difference and when to use those 3.
Can you explain and give me a few examples as to when to use each of them?
Thanks!!!

为 = for
替 = 顶替 = replace
对 = 面对= face
1. do sth for me = 为我做某事
2. do the thing that is what I need to do(perhaps it's my responsibility) for someone = 替某人做某事 = the position i'm standing is replaced by you, so we call 替。 替补球员 = substitute
3. 对 = 面对 = face = versus = against。 你对我做某事 means you do sth facing/versusing/against me(for me, just to express a kind of situation that the thing is done for me because you are facing me to do) approximately = pay court to a sb. have you seen that male pay court to female in nature? such as dancing or singing to women(man often face to women).
gradually the 对 got etended meaning in different areas of use. now even though you are not facing to sb actually, you are just doing sth for sb. it can also be used 对 in these situations
