No, i don't get hurt cos i don't expect from others to do same for me of what i have done to them...It's human nature..No one can expect 100% return for their gratitude and support(moral-physcial or finanacial)lend to others..just keep on doing GOOD WORK..thats it.

Personally I feel that if you are doing something for someone without expecting anything in return; then it's a great feeling when accomplished. On the other hand if you put your efforts in, primarily targeting something in return, then you tend to chase your targets within certain boundaries and you may probably invite troubles for you and others.

hiya bubbly

me thinks great expectations lead to disappointment. better to think of now and be happy in the moment, you will learn to appreciate it more.

Expect everything you will get it but don't expect love it will hurt. Can you live without that?

By mjamille28• 11 Oct 2010 21:29
mjamille28

bubbly, exactly what I have realized lately.. do not expect so much from the people around you, that way, you don't end up in disappointment...

You can get hurt no matter what you expect. Expecting and getting hurt have got nothing to do with each other.

to expect is not bad but to over-expect ... that is the way to get yourself so disappointed.

By mr_qatar• 11 Oct 2010 20:22

Yup expectation from others sometime hurts but its life & everyone depend on each others. Just like a wall of cards.. Expect, but not so much & not from everyone.

Yes, agree....but it is very difficult.

We all expect something, so to say never expect is near impossible in my opinion.

The same goes for......if you want nothing you will have everything.

Only words....which as we know is easier than actions.

what 2 expect and from whom?God gave two hands to earn and live, a heart to love and a brain to think...Guess you lack something....Brain?
