[quote=Anonymous]^^^ There is a condition called Cognitive Dissonance. You can look it up. Basically it occurs when you are faced with a situation that differs so much from your expectations and what you understand is reality that you resolve this painful dissonance by erring on the side of the less painful option. An extreme example is a person who claims to never have known that their spouse was a serial killer. Fact is there probably were many, many signs that could have indicated something was very wrong, but the spouse chose to ignore them. Not because the spouse was complicit, but because who wants to “go there” by considering that their spouse — the person they love and built their life around — could be such a low life. [/quote]
