When you set expectations of someone, do you think you meet them yourself? If not, maybe you shouldn't expect so much from someone as well, what do you think?

I just want a girl that's single without drama and go from there, usually works. Hell, TO MANY to choose from. :2funny:

I know what you're saying though, most my friends want something in a girl. I just tell them it should just be that she's a gal and you go from there. :police:

Primetime, are you trying to be a player? U don't seem to be the type.. hehe But then maybe I don't know you well enough as I thought I would. Yes, just as long as she has something that keep you interested. Don't expect too much because you might find yourself disappointed. Just like picking out a apple from the market.. you keep on tossing and picking. Thought you found the good one at the end, but you end up with a hole on the back that you didn't even see it.

I expect kindness and understanding.  Do you think I will get those qualities in return if I give them the Universal rule?
Only after you already know them well. If not, you have to be on guard. :police:

I never have any expectations just hope. I just go with the flow, that way if it doesn't go the way I had hoped for, it's okay. There will be someone, eventually.

I do agree that if you don't meet your own expectations than you shouldn't expect it from others.

when it comes to relationships all I have to say is expect the unexpected.

When women set these expectations for their men, do you guys talked to the men about it? And was it expected the same for you? Y'all know we can't read the mind right?  :)

I do have some sort of expectations but not the ones that you can't meet or it's impossible. I think everyone has some sort. Others are just set higher than they think they can get out of that other person. I tried not to judge people and I ALWAYS give them the benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise.

It depends what the expectations are. For instance, if it's a height expectation, I wouldn't want to be the same height as my guy...I would want him to be taller.

I never have any expectations just hope. I just go with the flow, that way if it doesn't go the way I had hoped for, it's okay. There will be someone, eventually.

Everyone has expectations.. .just hoping for something to go the right way, is expecting. You expect that person to be a certain way to fulfill your desires and needs...that's why if it doesn't go the way you hoped, then it doesn't work out.

You can be a lowlife and expect better. As long as the other person has lower expectations and accepts you, why can't you aim high?  :2funny:

I would think so.... I've learned that it's good to have expectations.. . well, goals... If you don't, you end up no where.
