It's very easy to see someone as what they are not. In relationships, often the person you fall in love with can take on additional traits in your mind that aren't necessarily realistic.

Love is always tough. You can't control what your heart holds. Secondly, it's hard to stop loving someone because we invest ourselves so much into them. We make time for them and we trust them and make them a part of our lives and letting all this go away, is not easy!

It's pretty hard to tell your heart who to love and who not to love, honestly. I think that when it comes to love, it can be anybody, even the ones who aren't good for you.

Because we think we can change them and that if you keep loving them that they will change. Simple as that...

Because deep down your heart you feel that you can change them by your love and you think that they need you

There is often a disconnect between what the heart wants and what the brain needs. At the core of this issue is fear of change. It is natural to fear a break up from even an unsavory person, as change is frightening to most people.

Because sometimes that person, even though they are not good for you, will make you feel good and tell you things you want to hear.

emotions are a very hard thing to stop, especially a strong emotion like love. maybe someone isnt good for you, but once you fall in love with them its very hard to just stop those feelings and the attachment which comes along with that love feeling.

Sometimes the only things you see about that person is good qualities which can hinder your capability in seeing the truth about them.

It's hard because you build up emotional attachments to that person because in your head, you feel as if they're perfect but in reality they're not. They're what's poisoning your mind
