Cliché: love is blind

Meaning: we can overlook a lot when we love someone . Use examples.
Rewrite 1: love sees few
blemishes
Rewrite 2: one loves what love sees
Rewrite 3: many are ugly but for the love that blinds the acquaintance
Rewrite 4: seeing past
imperfections2 is love’s greatest gift

Comment: This one takes some finesse to speak eloquently without burdening credibility.
