Is it normal to believe the person you are in love with is the most attractive person in the world?

If this were true, men and women won’t have affairs.

I mean, that might be your normal (and that's fine!), but it's not everyone's normal.

For reference, I've been married for nearly 14 years and don't feel that way about my husband, although I might have in the beginning (again, normal). Do I still find him attractive? Yep.

But I can concede that there are more attractive dudes out there. But just because those more attractive people exist doesn't mean I have any desire to venture elsewhere or kick my spouse to the curb, lol.

Love at first sight
Love is blind
Yes, I believe it can be normal if you feel that way. One person in my life had me feeling that way; he was my absolute best friend for almost 10 years; I could tell him anything when nobody else gave a minute to listen; and he was nice to look at, comfortable arms to be in, had a wonderful smile. But it can be a dangerous thing as well. If you get to the point of 'they can do no wrong' but then they do, it hurts even deeper.
Always treat blind love with caution and a protected heart.

There's no two ways about it: by spouse is one goofy looking guy- tall and thin with a slightly irregular gait, long skinny arms like a car lot air dancer, and somewhat flattened face like a persian cat except for a nose slightly too big for his other features.

But when we've separated a crowd or even in the grocery store for just a few minutes I turn around and see him again, my eyes dilate, and every other person in the room disappears into a cheesy vaseline-on-a-camera blur, and he's the most handsome man on the planet (and has been for the 35 years my eyes have been dialating for him) :-)

Aaww. This. To find this again

Like they say....
Beauty IS in the Eye of the Beholder.
I believe Beauty is from within and the more awesome a person is inside, the more loving, giving, compassionate, and happiness one shows and literally makes them shine and radiate these beautiful things therefore making their inside beauty show.

Have you ever noticed when you think somebody is amazingly beautiful and then you get to know this person, and they're not that great of a person inside?Suddenly that beauty that first attracted you seems to have faded? they're actually not as beautiful as you first thought.

I think my husband is Beautiful, not only the fact that he's handsome, has a wonderful beard and eyes that pierce through me, but the fact that he is such a compassionate loving human being; this makes him all that more attractive to me!
I know that he's not perfect, I know that he's not the most beautiful man in the world, however to me he is, and for me... he is the most beautiful and Perfect human that I want to share my life with! 💕
So to answer your question...
Yes, I think it's normal!! 😊

Be Happy and always take notice and appreciate those beautiful attributes that your Love, your Soul Mate exhibits and radiates to you and to others. This will make you realise that he or she is the most beautiful person to you! 😌❤️

I think my husband is an objectively handsome man but we’ve gone through some good times and bad and my attraction to him depends on how things are going. If he’s bein a jerk about something, no attraction.

But when things are consistently good as they have been for a few years now and that man smiles at me, it lights me up. It’s the most beautiful thing, that warm smiling face.

And I understand the whole across the room thing someone else mentioned. If I’m in a crowded place looking for him, seeing his face feels like home. Some people get bored of their partner it seems, but the more familiar he becomes to me over time, the more I cherish that familiarity.
