LOVE makes you blind?

GROWING UP ALL I EVER HEARD WAS THAT'' LOVE                                                 

MAKES YOU BLIND'' AND YOU KNOW WHAT I DIDNT UNDERSTAND IT AND I NEVER QUESIONED IT EITHER.

I WOULD SEE WOMEN IN ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIPS STAY AND I AM JUST LIKE WHY PUT YOURSELF THROUGH THAT AND YOU KNOW WHAT THE OLDER LADIES SAID ''HMM BABY GIRL LOVE MAKES YOU BLIND''. 

WOMEN WHO STRUGGLED TO MAKE A MAN STAY ,THEY WOULD INVEST IN HIM MENTALLY,PHYSICALLY ,EMOTIONALLY AND ABOVE ALL FINANCIALLY CAUSE N***A COULDNT HOLD HIS OWN  AND IM LIKE WHY YOU WASTING YOUR MONEY ON HIM AND YOU KNOW WHAT I WAS TOLD ''BABY GIRL LOVE MAKES YOU BLIND''

SO THERE I WAS A YOUNG SOUL AND WHAT I KNEW ABOUT LOVE WAS THAT IT MADE YOU BLIND #HUH. IT WAS LIKE A SEED SOWN IN MY BRAIN THAT THE MOMENT YOU LOVE IS THE MOMENT YOU BECOME BLIND AND PUT UP WITH ERRTHING AND BY ERRTHING I MEAN ABUSE,DISRESPECT ,BELITTLEMENT ,SHAME ,SORROW, PAIN AND WHY AM I GOIN THROUGH THIS AGAIN? COZ I AM IN LOVE #SMIRK

THAT IS WHEN I BEGAN TO QUESTION IT , DOES LOVE REALLY MAKE YOU BLIND? AND MY VERDICT......HELL NO!!!!WHY DO WE HAVE TO BLAME LOVE FOR PEOPLES OWN FOOLISH DAMNED REASONS .GOD IS LOVE! AND HE DONT ABUSE ME ,NO, HE DONT DISRESPECT ME OR CAUSE ME PAIN NO HE SOOTHES THE PAIN,HE RESPECTS ME ,HE RAISES ME UP I MEAN HE HAS GOT MY BEST INTENTIONS AT HEART CAUSE HIS LOVE FOR ME IS PURE.

AND THIS IS THE PART WERE YALL GUYS ARE GONNA SAE 'WE AINT NO GOD ,WE JUSS HUMAN#SIDEEYE'' AND MY RESPONSE TO THAT IS OF COURSE U AINT NO GOD BUH GUESS WAH BABE U MADE IN HIS IMAGE AND HE GOT A MESSAGE FOR US ''LOVE IS PATIENT ,KIND...''

THIS MESSAGE IS FOR THE  WOMEN OUT THERE ,MY MOTHERS, SISTERS ,GRANDMAS TO JUST LET YOU KNOW THAT YOU DESERVE THE WORLD AND THAT YOU SHLDNT SETTLE FOR LESS .IF HE AINT TREATING YOU RIGHT AND SEEMS LIKE HE DONT CARE BABE ITS NOT AN ACT NOR IS IT A PHASE SOMETIMES ITS GOD TELLING YOU THAT THIS FIGHT AINT YOURS AND THAT YOU SHLD JUST PICK UP YOUR BROKEN PIECES N RUN! BABE JUSS RUN THERE IS SO MUCH MORE WAITING FOR U OUT THERE#SELFLOVE

P.S BEING A RIDE OR DIE ISNT STICKING WHEN HE DISRESPECTS YOU OR ACTS LIKE YOU AINT THERE TX ABOUT BUILDING EACH OTHER AND BRINGING OUT THE BEST OUT OF EACHOTHER#MORELOVE:)

I suppose the all caps and somewhat lack of grammar made me a bit blind to the wanting to understand your writing AT FIRST, but that is just my personal preference. Overall I have to agree with your points. In my opinion, people in abusive/disrespectful relationships are not blinded by love, they are blinded by their vision of what they want out of the other person. I for one have been blinded by true love for a long time now, and in some cases it does allow me to put up with more than I should. But that's because I know that time shared with her is most certainly worth the temporary strife she may cause from time to time, I too fall into poor practices from under times of pressure or stress.

"GOD IS LOVE! AND HE DONT ABUSE ME, NO, HE DONT DISRESPECT ME OR CAUSE ME PAIN NO HE SOOTHES THE PAIN, HE RESPECTS ME, HE RAISES ME UP I MEAN HE HAS GOT MY BEST INTENTIONS AT HEART CAUSE HIS LOVE FOR ME IS PURE." That was very true and honest. Your words were powerful. Great job!
