No it means you accept that person completely and love them for who they are which includes all the little imperfections. We all have them.But we don't always accept them in people we really don't care about.

no you are not blinded. at first your heart is overwhelmed with the emotion and it is easier to over look the imperfections, but as time goes on and you become more comfortable with the other person you get less tolerant of their mistakes. In some cases the opposite partner will learn what buttons can be pushed overtime and then they manipulate the relationship to their advantage, however it is recommended that two people try to learn each others imperfections and together work through them to build a better and stronger relationship.

Not so much as blinded but accepting of one's imperfections. You have to remember everyone has their flaws. Picking on the imperfections will only make you both miserable. There are better things to worry about than to waste time and energy of silly little things like that

Why must it be "either" "or?" Of course you can totally love someone and be fully aware of their imperfections. If you can live with these imperfections and he can live with yours, that's pretty much the basis for a good relationship. Think of imperfections as being those things that make a person colorful rather than think they're totally negative. You'd rather be thought of as "colorful" with your imperfections, wouldn't you? Let the good stuff overwhelm the imperfections.

This is a legitimate grownup question. Yes you are blinded to one`s imperfections. You except that person warts and all. When I first met my husband, I noticed that his nose was a little on the large side. The more I fell in love with him, the more handsome to me he became. The same thing with things that would normaly irritate me if someone else did them. It does not bother me when he does the same thing. I love him and think he is wonderful.

No, and you shouldn't even have to "love someone in spite of their imperfections". Even though there are some things about my husband that I'm not **crazy** about, I love all the little things that add up to him being the unique person he is.
If I was to take one of those "imperfections" away, he wouldn't be the person that he is, and the person that I love.

No you're not blinded to them, in fact they can drive you nuts but if you love someone you accept them as they are.

yes i certinly believe love is blind, and when you love you don't always see what's wrong.when in love your willing to forgo your wants and give to that other person. sometimes one loves so deeply they can't see when they need to set boundaries, so after awhile they do become resentful.

No! I've always said that I knew it was "true love" with my husband because I recognized that he wasn't perfect but I didn't care.
