I feel that way too because so much of what I wanted didn't work out, in spite of my best efforts. I tried so hard.......I don't tell anyone because they'll give me a platitude like "Things happen for a reason."
Year after year after year. There are certain tasks that trigger that realization, such as an annual routine doctor's visit or putting new tags on my license plate.
I also live in an apartment and hate the intrusion of an inspection. Or even a repair. My tub faucet drips, but it's a small leak and isn't hurting anything. I keep a bowl under it and even overnight, there's just 2 tablespoons of water. And the manager can be so snarky. I don't want to interact with him or have anyone come in here. Maintenance guys are nice but it's still an intrusion.
Unless it leaks so much it overflows the bowl, and wastes water by going down the drain, I'm not telling them about it.
