flying_high Posted February 15 Report Share Posted February 15 Sorry to hear that and yes I think I know what you're going through right now. I used to get all hyped up about meeting new people, old friends etc. and I always had those big hopes and expections. Nowadays I'm rather trying to keep those things low and take much smaller chunks...maybe that's shit and I should start believing in ppl again but at least the pain isn't soo much once you got disappointed and hurt again... hope you're feeling better soon and that the next person coming along won't turn on you and/or disappoint...------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

helpermonkey Posted February 15 Report Share Posted February 15 My roommate is like that. He sets up unrealistic expectations and then gets disapointed when real life doesn't live up to his expectations. Don't be so stuck up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beaker2 Posted February 16 Report Share Posted February 16 You have to look on the bright side, better that other people disappoint you, than you disappoint yourself! There is nothing wrong with having high expectations of other people but it does increase the chance they don’t live up to them. Then again, it’s even more rewarding and special when you met someone who exceeds those expectations. And believe me they are out there somewhere. You just have to keep on rocking along with a smile on your face and making sure you are happy with who you are and what you’re doing. People are attracted to those that are comfortable with themselves. Life can throw everyone some crap every now and then, roll with it and you come out the other side a lot stronger/wiser. Just make sure you enjoy yourself because no of us are around hear long enough to waste even a day. How was that for deep? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pgroove Posted February 16 Report Share Posted February 16 Yeah man, I know how that can be. I used to always plan things out in advance and think of the "ideal" way things would be. The problem with that mentality is that nothing ever lives up to your expectations. You will always be disappointed. I found this to be especially true with dates, women, etc.-- the more you think about things the more you fuck yourself up for when things are going to happen.Just take each day as it comes and be thankful for it. Live spontaneualy and with little concern for what that new day will bring. There is a silver lining to every cloud (you just have to find it).Alright, once again I find myself rambling.Peace all ------------------"Crippled but free, I was blind all the time I was learning to see" -Dead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petp Posted February 16 Report Share Posted February 16 i was like you in the past. my remedy, dont expect so much out of other people. you cant affect how a certain person behaves or how the world works, so take it as it comes and always strive for the better. the only thing you have complete control over is yourself, so the best thing you can do is be the best twilogoddess you can be and eerything will fall into place.

IT'S FRIDAY !!! and a looooong weekend in fact!!! I'll have to agree that it is all about how you look at things. But I also think that as you get older you tolerate less, and suddenly realize that the shit you used to be able to put up with you just can't anymore. I have realized as I grow that it takes much more to impress me -I have different standards. And I realize that some of the friends I used to have I couldn't have now, and then I ask myself why I let people treat me the way they did.Answer...I was young ------------------The music makes the people come together...

rld2g Posted February 16 Report Share Posted February 16 i agree with just about all...i was the same way for most of my life, been let down entirely too much...now i dont have expectations for anyone or anything...sounds dark, but it's great...anytime something happens whether good or bad, i just go off the joy of that experience...i'll tell you if you're just looking at life(the experience), you'll never get let down...life's beauty is manifested in soo many different ways, you have no choice but to feel invigorated by it...and life will never let you down as long as you love it...yeah------------------i'm only doing this once...until the second time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I 'thought' we were friends, and friends alone (well with benefits) . For some reason, he concocted a scenario where he thought I wanted more out of the relationship and instead of talking to me to find out for sure, he basically "laid down the law" and assumed I wanted more emotionally and totally ran away like a bat outta hell...Haven't heard from him since, but whatever . But overall, it was a disappointing experience because I thought we were friends, but now he has forced me to confiscate his benefits card.

Anyone else feel the same way? maybe you're comparing past situations (which were great) to these new ones and they're not measuring up to the feelings, emotions, and experiences you had before. it not necessarily higher expectation, but now things have become ordinary, calculated and expected. anyway, cc/dt will be sure to live beyond expectation, so dont lose all the faith ------------------I buried gravity twice, and now own him....he is a racist, and a hypocrite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twilogoddess Posted February 16 Author Report Share Posted February 16 I agree w/u all are saying. I'm not unhappy. It just frustrates me that Ppl say 1 thing & do another, Lead U on, make promises & don't come thru etc. I hate that shit! I've concluded family are the only ppl that don't disappoint, my family at least. ------------------Trancessed!- Me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalfinus Posted February 16 Report Share Posted February 16 I know exactly what you mean D. I felt the same way for a long time, but I made new friends. They play nice. I say fuck the rest!! Well, not literally. You know what I mean. Fuck em', fuck em' all!! ------------------ "I don't wanna stop just because,people walkin' by are watchin' us.

resident Posted February 17 Report Share Posted February 17 I'm totally with you. Recently I've been very lucky in that my last few club ventures were different, being Richie Hawtin (duh - techno, different), and Tenaglia (duh, enough said). Other than that, everything else seemed kind of anticlimactic, including (dare I say this...) Danny Howells and everything but the last two hours of Digweed.I can only attribute this to overdoing it. That's why I'm definitely looking to different places to go to - Vinyl, SF, maybe Centro-Fly some time.I'm sure that real Twiloheads will attack me next time they see me, but that's just me - I get bored easily and absolutely need change. Not just with clubs or music - everything. Including my job, which I'm working on changing right now...And yo - I live closer to Twilo than you do! 19 blocks - beat that!
