Research has shown that positive illusions about one's partner can actually lead to longer lasting and happier relationships. As long as both partners maintain their positive view of each other, it can lead to increased commitment and satisfaction in the relationship. However, if one or both partners become disillusioned and the positive illusions are shattered, it can lead to negative outcomes such as decreased satisfaction and even the end of the relationship.
