Yes, it seems harmless to allow myself to be partially fooled, when I'm consciously aware of the truth of the matter. Trying to burrow into my brain and eradicate it seems pointless when it would only cause me to be more upset.

The problems arise when you're not aware of the disparity between the belief and reality.
