Murray and Holmes (1997)
Over time partners in committed relationships created “positive illusions” of their partners. The idealization of the partner was positively associated with relationship satisfaction and fewer conflicts. Confidence in the partner seems to foster a sense of trust and security. which in turn promotes accommodation in conflicts.
