I've finally come to a point that I have to admit to myself: My expectations of others are too high and too many for a normal person to achieve.
I expect other people to be on time, to be ready for me when I call, to listen to me, to make right choices, to be able to be independent (not dependent on me), to learn the first time they are told, to respect me, to be open to their opinions on me... and many many more expectations.
As a result, when these expectations are not met, I am flustered and frustrated. Why can't they do this, why can't they do that? Why can't they and never "Why can't I"...
It's very difficult for me to lower my expectations on the people I know, because I believe meeting the minimum standards of mine would make them better person in society and among people. Because I just know.
It's miserable to feel this way. Argh.
God, PLEASE SAVE ME FROM MY EXPECTATIONS!
