Is it hard to think critically about something you love?

Sometimes passion gets the best of us and all we see is the good or the bad. It's one extreme or the other. For myself and depending on what it is I'm thinking about, I can critically and objectively assess what it is I love. If it is my art (drawing or writing), it'd take some time to look passed the flaws since I'd always be fixing something. I eventually come to accept that what I create won't be as I see it in my mind. So, yes, it is difficult to think about something I love critically. However, I do what I can with what I have.

Yes it's hard sometimes because If you keep remembering the person you love and you'll get more depressed by that.

It can be hard to think critically about something you love if you are not accepting to other's opinions. You can still admit it has flaws and still love it. I don't think someone else's opinion should affect what you think about a certain thing or person though. if you love it take pride in it.

I believe it is, yes. However, I think it is important to try to see the negative side of things sometimes, as the mist of love can make things that are bad for you seem perfectly acceptable.

Sometimes it can be very hard to look objectively at something you care about. You might even feel like you're being personally attacked when someone says something critical about the thing you love. But I think people should realize that everyone has different tastes and not everyone will love the same things you do. If someone says something critical about something you love. it's not a personal attack on you. Just a difference of opinion.

It is. Our eyes are always colored, we see through multiple filters. We are more likely to think positivly about things and people we love.

No, not really. I guess it depends how much you love it though. But for most things, they have pros and cons, it's just that the pros outweigh the cons.

This is an interesting question also. It is hard to think critically about something you love because it is hard to imagine releasing this.

Yeah, usually it is hard because when you love someone you are idolizing them. You are angry if someone says something bad about them and you can't see any bad thing at them, you seem them as perfect, but it is not right.

Yes, We like to believe that our judgement is clear regarding those close to us, but frequently it is all too easy to opt to be blind to their traits.
