This explains the typical wearing off of the “honeymoon phase“... the illusion one constructed slowly dissipates. And this is why the greatest loves grow stronger over time, the beloved reveals more and more of one’s ideal, rather than disfiguring it.

Or... the greatest loves come from lovers who are more curious and open to the mystery of their partner, rather than hoping they conform to a pre-determined ideal.

Good point. It may not be so much that love is blind, but that introverts can act like extroverts in certain contexts, especially speed dating.

Interesting observation, wrong conclusion. Early romantic interest switches on "confirmation bias," and we want to believe what we feel. The solution is: Stay open and curious to the mystery when you feel attraction. Don't put people into a box of who you *think* they are!
