Idioms: Love
Liebe macht blind
Curiously, to German speakers, love itself isn’t blind: that would be far too illogical. Rather, it makes one blind
Alte Liebe rostet nicht
This one can either mean that a longstanding relationship can endure a lot of strain, or that an old flame doesn’t die: in other words, you won’t forget your high school crush!
Hin und weg sein
In German, if you’re ‘hin und weg’, then you’re head over heels in love with someone. Or alternatively, something: like your new PS5
Beispiel: “Ich war wirklich hin und weg, als ich meine Tochter das erste Mal sah.” (“I was totally towards and away when I saw my daughter for the first time.”)
