Love is of all passions the strongest, for it attacks simultaneously the head, the heart and the senses.

Love does not arrive through one door. It recruits your thinking, your feelings and your body at the same time, which is why it overrides judgement so easily: no part of you is left standing outside to referee. That is not an argument against it, only an explanation of why sensible people make decisions in it they cannot later account for.

Given that, do your important reasoning about a relationship while you are not inside the strongest feeling. Decide in advance what you would need to see in order to walk away. And keep one honest friend whose judgement is not compromised by the same weather.
