People don't make mistakes in love; they make mistakes in people.
The quote "People don't make mistakes in love; they make mistakes in people" suggests that the challenges we face in romantic relationships often stem from our choices in partners rather than love itself being flawed. It implies that love, as an emotion or experience, is pure and genuine, but individuals can misjudge the characteristics and intentions of the people they choose to be with. When we enter relationships, we may idealize someone or overlook red flags, leading to heartache. Essentially, it emphasizes the importance of understanding and evaluating the person we choose to love, as our missteps in selecting the right partner can lead to negative experiences in love.
