Good literature of love-blind person manipulated by a bad spouse?

Or like Adeline Yen-Mah in Falling Leaves wrote of her father besotted with his mean new wife, to him 'even her farts were fragrant'.

I know a man who can see no wrong in his useless wife, even though she does nothing for him, sleeps all day and wastes his money. He on the other hand dotes on his wife's every whim and doesn't even realise that his wife does nothing in return. Yet he speaks harshly to other people so he only lets her walk over him. It's like he's under a witche's spell but I'd rather reference literature or true historical examples of people who have been so completely blinded by love that they don't see a single fault in their spouse.

Let's block ads! (Why?)
