Love is blind.
Meaning of the quote
When you love someone, you may not see their faults or problems. Your feelings for them make you overlook the things that might bother you about them. Love makes you focus only on the good things about the person, and not the bad things. This quote means that love can make you blind to the flaws in the person you love.
