Love is messed up.

I fell head over heels for a girl who wound up scamming me out of a lot of money and nearly my possessions. But I still love her why???!!! Well, to answer my own question, I love the idea of what she could have been, not what she turned out to be. Like I'm seeing her through a telescope into an alternate universe where she is a good person and that's the person I want to be with.
