I was thinking. Perhaps there is a bi-implication of love and knowledge.
What I mean, the more you know something, it has potential of either causing you to love it more.
The more you know love something, the more you have knowledge of it.
For example, in another thread, Festive1 remarked how she dislikes random people often. She tells about how one didn't mind their own business in a conversation, and hence, she disliked that person.
I think when it comes to strangers, we judge them quickly, without getting to know them truly.
On the other hand, people we love closely, we tend to have more knowledge of their flaws then other people, but we "forbear" them more.
We are more intolerant towards people we are largely ignorant of, and judge them quickly on mistakes/flaws.
I think when we fall in love with someone, we come to get to know them better than others. It causes us to have more knowledge, and this includes knowledge of their flaws.
But this is not only true of people. The same is true of different things like food.
We love a certain music, and we then get a certain perception and insight to the music others don't.
The same can be said about a book we love. The more we love it, the more insight we get of it.
This isn't always a bi-implication. But often it is.
