It is said that an expectation can be a premeditated resentment. I often place expectations on people to act or react a certain way. Naturally, I don't tell them how they should act or react because they should already know. They, being human, fail to meet my expectations which disappoints me. I don't tell them how they made me feel because they know me well enough that they should already know how I feel and that it's their fault. You'd think they would at least apologize for their inadequacies but they don't do that either and I start to get resentful. Now, if I didn't place expectations on them in the first place, think how much less trouble they would get themselves into.
