Toronto Globe and Mail: Put your partner on a pedestal? You might have a happier marriage

An article in the Toronto Globe and Mail reports a new study has found that people who idealize their romantic partners are happier in the long run than people who see them as they really are, and quotes Sandra Murray, professor of psychology. "People who idealized their partner less experienced a steep decline [in satisfaction]," said Murray, who is co-author of the study. The research also is the subject of an article in the Boston Globe's Daily Dose blog.
