Ever heard the expression "love is blind"? It completely baffles me, too, but I see it happen all the time so it must be true. They either can't or won't allow themselves to see the person as he or she really is so they just lie to themselves and/or rationalize it to themselves or others. It's very sad.

Well it's really called love and devotion.Some of the vilest criminals, who ever walked the earth,have been defended by thier parents or siblings Even in the face of irrefutable evidence families will try(especially mums)to justify thier offsprings behaviour.Sad but it's true

First impressions are often lasting. People do not make room for new information in their psyche about a person after they have formed a general impression about the person.

There's usually an opposite trait that is equally or more appealing, such as the person has done something extraordinarily nice (like stuck by you through your cancer treatments) or is filthy rich.

Because one's shortcomings are not endearing.
