Tough going!!

" Expectations " A very common, and an even more commonly used word in the English dictionary, but one that, I, have had a lot of trouble understanding and explaining, to myself, of course!
We are advised not to have any, in any of the relations, we may be in, at any given time, for it's said, having them could turn out to be the surest way of losing our loved ones,,and I've found this to be so true.
But, if we hold still and think about it, We end up trying very hard, most of our lives, to meet up to the expectations people hold. and the disappointment that accompanies any failure in doing so, is disturbing.
Why these double standards?
How can any relation, not have its own inherent list of expectations,?
How can we not expect anything from those we love?
I've thought hard, long and often on this,, haven't reached any conclusions as yet.
as a result, I have to measure out my steps, and weigh my words, and this isn't who I am, neither am I used to dealing with people in this manner, but the consequences of not doing so, are too painful to even contemplate going through, another time.
Did any of what i just wrote, make any sense?
I think not,,at least not to me, it didn't.:)
