Justice is blind! Cupid isn't blind when he stings you with an arrow -- but YOU are blind about the person you're in love with, yes.
Soulmates are very rare. I've heard of them and read about them in biographies, but never actually met a couple who were assuredly soulmates.
Rolling Stone did a story of country singer Willie Nelson about 10 years ago. Nelson was giving a performance at a county fair in upstate New York. He told the interviewer backstage, pointing to the audience, "The real story is out there. Ninety-nine percent of those people are NOT with their first true love."
Yet their lives and ability to love goes on --without a soulmate or the hope of ever having one -- a very profound observation!

Yes on both counts. Real love is "blind" in the sense that it doesn't just see what's on the surface, but what's inside. Yes I believe in soulmates -- people that are destined to be together, people who have a strong connection on every level. The problem is that most people settle, they don't wait for their true "soulmate." If they did, the divorce rate wouldn't be so high.

I believe that Love is Blind because you never know when it is going to walk into you. I do NOT believe in soulmates because that is not true, and it is physically impossible to be soulmates. I don't even really believe in souls too much.

Yes, I believe love is blind. Soulmates? Well I thought I had one, but I was wrong, so very wrong. What I do know, and it is not just me, is that the very thing that attracts you to someone...is the very thing that turns you away from them in the end.

For wise love, I've heard you need to keep your eyes wide open before you marry... and halfway shut after. TAKE YOUR TIME GETTING TO KNOW THEM GOOD - LISTEN TO THE WARNINGS. this person will raise your children...whether you want them to or not!! They'll spend your hard earned money and take care of your house, yard and cars. Are they responsible? It doesn't usually get better after they put on a good dating front.
Sometimes love needs to be blind...But for only two reasons
1. You already married him.
2. And it doesn't exceed your boundaries.
Don't ever let yourself except bad shi from anyone. They will learn to do only what you LET them. Take it from one who has enabled far too long and now it's gone too far thinking I was making peace and being a loving ,forgiving Christian. Keep your eyes OPEN!
Soulmates, no. Commitments, yes.

Dear friend,
I believe love is blind because neither you neither me can see it right? It's so blind that we wouldn't know if we would be together one day!!! Even when I believe love is blind, we can still see it through the actions other people do.

There is a saying that Love is the idea of loosing yourself for another and in that sense love is very one sided and blind, That is true love has no expectations.
As for Soul-mates, if there is no such thing then what point is there to marriage!
