Do you think those expectations are a reality though? Maybe setting yourself up for disappointment? Not saying it's wrong to have those expectations, but when they falter from that expectation it hurts. Maybe specific expectations is what gets us hurt. Maybe just expecting people to be people would be fair and reasonable, since we are all subject to mistakes and letting down someone's expectations.
Something to think about for sure.
