"No puedes conocer realmente a alguien y amarlo al mismo tiempo"

Simplified Meaning:

It's hard to truly understand someone completely and also have deep love for them at the same time. When you love someone deeply, you might overlook their flaws or not see them clearly, because love makes you focus on the good parts more. For example, if you have a friend who you really admire, you might not notice their bad habits as much because you're focused on how much you like them. But when you get to know them better, you might start to see their imperfections, and your feelings could change. This quote suggests that real, deep love can sometimes make it hard to see someone for who they genuinely are, because love can be like wearing rose-colored glasses. To apply this idea in life, try to balance your feelings with a clear understanding of the other person's true character, accepting both the good and the bad.
