Welcome to English in a Minute!
If you have ever been in love, you know it can affect you in many ways. Sometimes you can’t even eat or sleep.
Love is Blind
Speaker A: Okay, yesterday I had dinner with Josh and his new girlfriend.
Speaker B: Um… what did you think?
Speaker A: She is really rude! She actually yelled at the waiter in the restaurant for bringing her the wrong dish. Josh just does not see how unpleasant she is.
Speaker B: I guess it’s true. Love is blind.
Love is a very powerful feeling. When we are in love, sometimes we do not think clearly or see clearly.
So, when we are in love with someone, we may refuse to see anything bad about that person.
We are, in some ways, blind to their faults.
And that’s English in a Minute!
