About This Quote
This quote expresses the imaginative nature of love. It is true that when you are in love, you see your lover in a special light. You see them as unique and beautiful, without any flaws. But this is not always the case.
When you fall in love, it is easy to imagine your lover to be the perfect person. Love makes us idealize our lover and rarely see them for who they really are. This quote is warning people that while it seems like the world revolves around you when you are in love, it does not always feel like this.
When you are in love, everything feels right and everything fits together so perfectly that sometimes you think the world revolves around you. But when reality sets in, things may not fit together quite so perfectly.
