The current romantic idea of love likely comes through the Roman view of love. There have been zillions of examples of this kind of love promoted in many cultures nonstop. One familiar example is that of Romeo and Juliet, the type of love where both persons are so in love with each other that they will do anything for each other, including die for each other. This type of love, whether presented in a play, movie or book, is always missing the real interactions of two people living everyday life and interacting with the broader world and families. How's that for illusion.
The illusion is not created by the writer's or presenters of plays and movies, but rather by us who take stuff from those forms of media and treat it like the gospel truth.
