I don't understand why she wouldn't marry him because he was blind. This made me cry... but I guess it shows the extent to which someone can love another.
She was very superficial is the issue. Why did she need the ability to see in order to marry someone in the first place? What does sight have to do with love? So when she saw he was blind, she saw that it would not be the perfect marriage that she wanted. Again, superficiality.
It's a sad story, and the point is to show the difference between real love and superficial love. The way I see it, the boyfriend is better off, but it still hurts when shit like that happens.
I saw the moral of this story just as you did -- the girl's self-centeredness. On the other hand, Speaksoftly saw it from the other point of view -- the boyfriend who was willing to give so much for the one he loved.
