You’ve likely heard the saying, “Love is blind.” But in case you’re confused about what it actually means, it explains how many people tend to overlook the faults, imperfections, and even the blatant lies of the person they are with.
These women would know, and they are sharing their unfortunate experiences in a recent TikTok post. All of these anecdotes may prompt readers to cast judgment, but again, love can sometimes blur the lines between what is acceptable and otherwise.
If you’ve ever been in a similar situation, feel free to share your own stories in the comments. And don’t worry, it happens to the best of us.
