Do you believe in the old saying: "LOVE IS BLIND" ?

Question

Screenwriter · Accepted Answer

More of "lust" and initial attraction are blind. As times goes on, you find out more about people than first, pretty impressions... You can't take people at first impressions. You need to know them in person over time.

No perfect guarantee... but studies have shown that people let their hair down between six months and 2 years, in general. Then you meet the unadorned person and your rose colored glasses unfog too.

Only if one or both have blinders on.

Love is not, but infatuation is. That’s the stage of attraction during which people start to conceive of possibilities and tend to overlook red flags. Love is a series of commitments during which you recognize someone’s faults and foibles but forgive them because of the positive value that their contribution to your life means to you personally.

It's only blind for those who refuse to see a relationship for what it is. There are many people who get so attached to their abusive partner, and genuinely believe they love them, when it's not love... just the fear of losing someone they're attached to.

Ah, the age-old debate of love's vision! As a relationship coach, I'd say love might not be entirely blind, but it definitely wears rose-colored glasses! 😎 When you're smitten, emotions can cloud your judgement, making red flags seem more like pink ones! Falling head over heels can be magical, but never lose sight of your values and sense of self. It's all about balance, darling! 💖

Love is deaf, dumb, blind, and smell-deaf!

lightbulb27 · Answer

yes except it's more that it is dumb and dumber. What do you expect from a tiny little walnut circuitry in the brain that doesn't know all the complexity of the world and life but only knows it's body is going to fail and it's essential to reproduce at any opportunity.

Add to it lots of corrupt environment with poor or void training... trashy music, sexual baiting from an early age, the Kardashians as models and such, and frosted flakes for breakfast... with hormone laden milk with plastic estrogens...

What could possibly go wrong between two selfish humans?

LOVE isn't really blind, it's crazy... selfishness for so many. LOVE is a feeling and not an orientation to the creator. That is where the problem is.

jshm2 · Answer

Don't be silly. It's just a cliche, that sounds good in literature, but has no reality.

Nothing is more judgmental than love. To the extent that people are willing to kill, and steal for love. Two things you very much cannot do without very good sight and understanding.

Zack-Bann · Answer

People say that when talking about someone else’s taste that’s different from their own Love isn’t blind It’s personal  No point trying to quantify it  the heart wants what the heart wants

razor97 · Answer

This implies that most people and eventually humanity is blind. And it is “blind” in the sense that one's emotions prompt them to make mistakes which eventually affect someone else while even going as far as to create all sorts of emotional dilemmas and contradictions.

OneViewpoint · Answer

Emotions can create blind spots and cause us to compromise our morality and ethics or otherwise make excuses and exceptions we normally wouldn't find acceptable.

Twalli · Answer

Based on the Netflix show, no. If it was, most people in the show would get married at the end. Most don't, most don't even last the month they're supposed to get to know each other outside of the pods.

exitseven · Answer

Crankor · Answer

Yes I do but that doesn't even apply to our society anymore. Its more just people and their minds are blind

Massageman · Answer

LOVE isn't blind. But, sometimes love CAUSES us to ACT as if we were blind.

Anonymous · Answer

No, if it's about romantic love only, then I'm actually very visual, if I don't like the girl's appearance, there is no way that I'm going to develop some kind of love feelings for her.
