I THINK U CAN BE BLINDED BY LOVE, AND U WANT TO BELIEVE THEM. BUT U HAVE TO REALLY WORK ON TRUST IN A RELATIONSHIP, BECAUSE THAT IS ONE THING THAT I LOOK FOR THE OTHER IS COMMUNICATION.

Yes it can blind you. You're friends see something about the dude that you make excuses for. You think if you changed this part of you that he will not do the hurtful things that he uses to control you. He goes out with his buddies while you sit at home waiting on him by the phone.

I have an X roommate who has cheated on her husband twice and they are still together

Yes yes yes...That first flush of love can be a dangerous thing....For once you take the rose coloured glasses off wham.......things might look a little differently.. we are on our best behaviour at first then as time goes by we slip more into our true selves and sometimes it can be a real shock.....also sometimes we love for the wrong reasons and this can really blind us...I have learnt some painful lessons along the way and still dont trust myself 100% but pretty sure now what Im looking for and what Im not....

Yes. I know I definitely put up with feeling second best for a lot of years because I loved my ex. My standing "joke" was that the only part of him I saw for a number of years was the back of his head while he was at the computer.

When you have to make excuses to yourself and others for their behavior, there's a decision to be made. I try to believe that I have learned now what NOT to allow, but I have had a couple experiences since my divorce that keep reinforcing that, after the fact, of course. Most people believe that people are on their best behavior at the beginning of a relationship, and if a new person doesn't just blow you away with kindness right from the beginning, well, we should all just remember that it only gets worse when the other person gets comfortable, so you'd better demand the treatment you want right from the beginning. Sometimes I just wish I could be a demanding b*tch instead of being walked on.

Yes, love can blind you to the truth - not only in romatic relationships but in others as well.

There's also "Blind faith" and trust.

Anyone who makes the choice to mislead you or deceive you when you give them your respect or trust, can...until you stop allowing them to do so.

In reality,Yes..., literally and figuratively. Why? It is Nature's overwhelming desire that new life be brought forth unto every specie. So mighty, so very powerful has Nature engineered this desire that it must, by Her design, over come every real and possible obstacle imaginable, including human reason and logic.

By this fact, all male and female humans at some time or another, become "blind" to reason, and yield to Love that has no reason to exist but for its own pleasure and progeny.

If this were not so, consider the following question/idea.

What rational human being would deliberately subject them self to hours of excruciating pain, like that of childbirth?

Is or is it not true, that the objective of our individual pursuit of Happiness, is the avoidance of pain?

Of course love can blind you, it won't let you see the "real" person you are with. love can be the greatest thing but can also be the scorch in your life...
