Why the Jedi Council Purposely IGNORED Anakin's Feelings for Padmé - Star Wars Explained

In Star Wars we all know how Anakin Skywalker was obsessed with Padme. This was against the Jedi code and infringed on his Jedi philosophy of 'no attachments'. However, the council knew it, Obi-Wan Kenobi knew it, Mace Windu knew it, and of course Yoda as well. So why did they let it all unfold?

The answer is from the novels and the film itself, so let me know what your thoughts are on this. Should the Jedi Council have let Anakin proceed? What if the Jedi Council DIDN'T Ignore Anakin's Feelings for Padme? Would Palpatine have taken him a his Sith apprentice early?

Would Snoke have contacted them earlier? Would Order 66 still happen?
