Expectations can be defined as the feeling of hoping for something to happen.
As human beings , we all do have expectations, we aways expect things from others. In every relationship sometimes,I think both sides have “standards”, which is usually confused with expectations.
There are standards in all kind of relationships . In my opinion standards are base or the minimum requirement from others. There is a difference between both formulation ; if standards are based on support, Meaning expectations are hoping for the others to support you. From standards comes expectations as we can see . There’s nothing wrong with expectations as long as it’s not too much. As we live with our standards we should be careful with our level of expectations.

How many relationships have you lost because you were always expecting people to do things for you just because you were doing the same.
if we all expect others to make the first step who is going to do it .
Let’s love unconditionally but with wisdom. Choose your relationship carefully , play your part in all of them and stop waiting to see what others have to offer. Show genuine love when it’s needed. Honestly,in times like this it’s hard but the good news is God is here for you.

Stop expecting from other people what only God can give you no matter what you need ,seek God first.If you take the decision to let God be the center of your life , you will see a big change in your relationship with people.You will stop expecting a lot from the world because you get everything from God . Besides, we have this tendency to project our insecurities and issues to other people which is unhealthy . For example, the people dealing with confidence are always expecting people to give the compliments , to acknowledge them..etc

Remember to Learn to be happy and to be fulfilled alone . Have this self love , that can make you: go on a self date or doing things on your own and appreciate yourself even if society does not.
