The Illusion of Romantic Love As with most illusions, reality inevitably intervenes, causing hurt, anger, and the exceptional success of broken-hearted love ballads. Unlike other disappointments, however, reality intervening in romantic love fails to bring disillusion. We still believe in romantic love; we just think we didnt measure up or they didnt measure up. Next time, we believe – next person, next weekend, next year, next lifetime it will be better, it will happen – true love, true love. To believe that the illusion is real, but that the loved one or our ability to love is inadequate, is of course all part of the illusion.
