...set their expections so high? And then they become disappointed and perhaps angry if their wishes aren't quite granted. because hope is a powerful state of mind, it can drive people on to do things that they normally don't, they build it up in their minds and when sometimes it doesn't work out they deal with it almost like a sense of loss. |

I always have high expectations because I dont think I deserve anything less than that

Having high expectations is fine. You also need a thick skin when things don't go exactly as planned.

its called challenging yourself to get the best you can for yourself, if you dont succeed then atleast you tried
set low expections and you get what you deserve, and settle for what you can get |

...set their expections so high? And then they become disappointed and perhaps angry if their wishes aren't quite granted. because they are afraid of sucess, and if they set them high, they will never succeed. |

Set your goals high, and your expectations low, but don't compromise your standards.

Expect nothing & you won't be disappointed

Set your goals high, and your expectations low, but don't compromise your standards. ^^ Brilliantly stated! For me, I learned many moons ago to keep my expectations low and my acceptance high. With this mindset, I certainly do not compromise my standards...but, who the heck am *I* to "expect" someone to live up to them? I simply let folks consistantly show me over time who they are...and when they do, I believe AND accept them. This in no manner means I have to continue to engage/interact with them tho. "CHOICE" is a beautiful thing! |

I always have high expectations because I dont think I deserve anything less than that Nuthing wrong in wanting someone or somthing that you feel is right for you. But knowing this is the net and anyone can be anthing they want on here. Is that expectations really going to help? Just a question I and i'm sure alot of people o this site have seen where a few do have them high expectations and latter found them wounder what what happen when things didn't work out the way they thought it should. Yes, i been there, but i chose not to do it again if i can help it. |

...set their expections so high? And then they become disappointed and perhaps angry if their wishes aren't quite granted. They don't understand the concept of "realistic." |

I set my expectations low because I didn't think I deserved better. I ended up depressed and stressed for a decade.
I may be alone the rest of my life, but I'll be damned if I settle again. I deserve the One. |
