I don't believed that love is blind. Because love is not really blind. In fact, love can show us the real meaning of beauty. :)

Definitely love is not blind..When you truly love someone you will see and examine what you feel and know better the person you loved. It will not happened in a flash,it is not love..

It depends.. since i know some situations wherein love is really blind.. it makes people blind.. especially if a person is madly in love with another.. Even if the partner is bad or cheating or whatever.. the person remains loyal and continues loving..

It depends on a person how they define love. Definition of love matters on the person if she/he is inlove or not.
I won't believe also that love is blind. The person who claims love is blind pretending themselves only but that is not true.

I do believe that love is blind. This is because despite the flaws of a person, we can still truly be in love with that person.

I don't believe on that saying because love is a feeling, I am much of a believer that "Lovers are blind." because no matter what other people judge your relationship and accuse you that why you get along with that person you are stll the one who will prove that you really love him or her.

I agree with you love is not blind because love go pass what others see and show you the way to the person heart and the beauty they really are . When in love it doesnt matter what anyone else say because you know what you see .

I think love is blind, because when you love someone you really love them despite any flaws. You don't focus on what is wrong, but look for the good. I think you can love someone without approving of any hurtful things they do though. Ignoring the bad doesn't mean you put up with abuse or bad behavior-it just means you can love and forgive that. If you really love yourself you will not stick around for that treatment.

Thanks a ton for posting this discussion. Well i have never understood the concept of blindness in love, in fact if we are blind in love then how we will realize the beauty of love present around us. We would not be able to understand our life partner properly. Its high time that people start coming out of age and love in a realistic manner and not to stay in the fantasy world of love.
What say?

I guess this is because when you're in love, you dont look at your partner's flaws and faults. What's important is that you love that person, nothing more and nothing else.

Some people say that love is blind because it sees way past the physical beauty of a person; while looks are important, true love doesn't necessarily rest on looks alone. On the other hand, by the very same argument, is love really blind, or it is just unconditional? As a human, we all know what's pretty and ugly, what's good and bad, what's right and wrong. We can all see strengths and weaknesses. For example, my husband tends to be so demanding and I hate being controlled. But I still love him, yet I recognize his imperfections. Does that make my love for him blind because I see way past his bad side, or my love for him is just mature enough to accept him for what he truly is?
Maybe the expression "love is blind" is just a figure of speech. We are not really blind, figuratively or literally. We just see way past the imperfections and see the person as a whole and not by his weaknesses alone.
Of course this argument doesn't apply to a brutal kind of "love" wherein people physically hurt each other or but lives in danger because of "love".

In the sense Yes! When we love it is generally unconditionally meaning that no matter what that person has a hold on our heart.. People fall in love not knowing why or how. It's a very special feeling and it doesn't require much answer.
Happy mylotting!

Love can show us the true meaning of beauty, but beauty without compassion is evil. There are 2 things that make up a person, looks and behavior.
Love is blind when it only sees "looks" and ignores bad behavior, otherwise it could be a good thing.
