After having a discussion with my hubby about yesterday it occurred to me that one of our differences are the expectations we have of others, this could relate to all situations within life.
I don’t have expectations of others only of myself and my expectations of myself I set high standards for, and don’t like to fail in things I set for myself but if I do I take full responsibility of my own failings.
My hubby has a level of expectations for others, and often gets disappointed when they don’t live up to his expectations.
I believe by expecting others to live up to your expectations is passing the responsibility onto them.
Do people have too many expectations of others?
I believe in having this can only lead to frustrations and disappointments in others

Expectations of Others
Sex God
I expect others to behave responsibly and have common sense. If they can not do that as a minimum they are not worthy of my time or effort. I have no expectations of myself as I have commented in the past I am far too lazy to expect anything from myself. I will bumble through life in an average capacity and be happy as long as I dont have to do too much work 
:thumbup:
:thumbup: Unfortunately, I tend to hold out the vain hope that other people will have the same attitude towards life as myself, and act accordingly with tolerance towards their fellow man. This has often been shown to be disappointingly misguided, but I am an eternal optimist 
. I have also observed that the degree of common sense shown varies inversely proportionately with perceived intellect.

There are plenty out there, especially some of the people I deal with through my work. :twisted:
I have high expectations of myself, and I get annoyed when others do not show the same levels of expectations when they deal with me.
I would have thought people would at least have high expectations for themselves?
