Is love truly blind??
I like this guy... im not sure if its love... but my friends constantly tell me that he's no good, and I can do better.... but I cant seem to see all the faults that they do... Am I ignorant, and blind to reality?
But is love truly blind?
Or does it at least make you see the world through rose colored glasses?

Yes, that's why men feel their way around!

Love is blind.. some say its true, other don't believe it..
When you love someone, i mean really love someone.. you will accept all the truth about him even if you see his faults or flaws..
its love.. its blind because you ignore all his faults because that how much you love him..
But there are some point where you are not sure of your feelings for him.. its like you're confused.. maybe its just an infatuation...
because you don't see his fault, i think its not love.. because love is accepting someone as a whole being.. not being IGNORANT,,
its up to you if you wanna listen to your friend or your heart.. but remember sometimes "heart does not always has a right answer, so does your friends"
its better to listen to your heart the to others so that you won't have anybody to blame but your heart..
Good luck and God Speed

To some aspects it is blind. If this man makes you feel good alot of the time, you may not think too much of the awful things he does. Your age, and experiences, can determine if you are in love or not. Some times if it is our first love, we may feel that this is the one, especially if we never felt like this before.
Just don't let this get you down. If you know for a fact that he is okay, then just take it slow to find out the truth. Your friends just care about you, and want to help you. If you think realistically about everything, and see for your self that he is bad news, than maybe get out before things get to complicated for you.
No one can really tell you who to love, but we must not confuse love with lust, or infatuation. When we love someone, we forgive all their faults, and we do see their good side as well as the bad. We do not think they are perfect, and then blind our selves to the truth. When we see them for who they really are, but yet we stay with them and work it out, then this is love.

yes, love is blind and makes you see the world through rose colored glasses... You can't see what everybody else sees because you are emotionally involved, so you will only see the greatness that you had fallen in love with. However, your friends may not be right and just may not like him... Its up to you to take a step back and seperate yourself and try to see him as a whole...
I dated a person with whom I thought was the world. I believed that he was my everything and this picture perfect image of what i wanted in a man. In reality, he was very emotionally abusive and put me down alot.. I didnt see it (because I was in love), but my friends saw it.. It wasnt until I seperated myself from him and took a look at myself around him that I realized that he brought out the worse in me.
My best advice to take what your friends are saying into consideration and try to seperate yourself from him emotionally for a bit... then make up the decision yourself as to whether he is good or not.
and in my opinion, when friends are really close - like family - they become very protective of you and its hard to find any guy who is good for you and you will always be able to do better..

Yea i think love can blind you somewhat. You tend to overlook alot of wrongs when you honestly love someone. Only when the wrong repeat do you lose a little love with each one. Then once the love is gone, you see things much more clear and wonder "what was I thinking". Ever done that? Yep, thought so. So yea, I think love is blinding. Good luck to u.

OMG love can be totally blind and when you realize whats going on when you wake up you realize what the h were you thinking.....I have been there believe me I never believed love was blind and it happened to me and I about got myself into a ton of financial trouble could have messed my whole life up as well as other parts of my life and believe me if friends are saying it or if family is saying it more than likely its true it was for me and i know it happened to my sister to so please take a step back and truly look at your relationship and I totally wish you luck before something really happens.

It depends on what you think you are in love or not.
are you really over the moon or does the fact your friends see him as bad news tempt you more.
ask yourself how you would feel about him, if he were with one of your friends and had the same outlook on life.
Its not just love that blinds people, lonlieness, temptation, desperation and flattery will do the same things.
The question is how would you feel if he were hurt and couldn't walk or his looks were damaged. If you could honestly say you would still be there its probably love.If not its infatuation.
If he gets into stuff that could land you into jail, then what ?
You never said what it is that makes your friends feel this way ?
so its impossible to answer the question except with questions.

Chrissy
Ask yourself this
Are your friends really good friends whom you trust, spend good times with and who look after you and whom you trust?
If the answer is yes then they're right and this guy is bad news.
If the answer is no then he's hot stuff and one or more of your friends may be jealous and preventing you from seeing him because they want him.
If you trust your friends, don't see this guy and then if 2 weeks later one of your friends starts seeing him then you know that one or more of your friends isn't your friend and that you need new friends!
OR
Just go out with him have your heart broken possibly but feel good bout how tough the experience has made you!
isn't life just full of wild and dangerous decisions? Don't be afraid to make mistakes but make damn sure you learn from them!
Chemistry with someone is very very difficult to switch off so good luck!

No, not even man's best friend's. I always think the bastard is looking at me until I wave the hand with the sandwich.
Know what, girl? I'd say you give the schumuck a chance. Once upon a time I was in love with this girl, I think I really was... Then she listened to her friends. Guess we'll never find out.

no one finds love on the first try (because you always had loved someone before them). love is not blind, you cant just swing in the air and expect to find it, you gotta snoop around to find it ;p
P.S. Everyone has faults, so don't expect the perfect man to always be perfect

No, infatuation is blind. You should listen to your friends.
When they say "love is blind" they mean what when you're married, you are "blind" to your spouse's small imperfections.
