The older I’m getting, the more I’m failing to understand how emotions work.
That ex who is a father of a child, still confesses to you being his first love.
That friend with whom you were so close knitted with, now barely a like on the Gram story.
That long distance with whom each second was bliss, now is a one word text reply.
That cousin with whom you had your first night out, busy with kids and a family of her own.
Selfish? Failed expectations? Remorse?
To make things easier let’s blame it on the generation for being too cynical. But in reality have I also changed? Gullible. Call me whatever. I like the way things were. Too bad I can’t do anything about it. Everyone is self-loving these days you see. Nobody has the time. You’re lucky they keep in touch.
Self-reminder – don’t expect. The heart and brain don’t speak the same. Walk your own road, burning desires in flame.

Is it weird that I still expect? Somehow, I wanna expect too. Even if it hurts me in the end. Because I feel like not expecting would mean I may not ever experience the joy of having an expectation turn into reality. Don’t know just a random thought.

I totally second you! Sans expectations, are we even human? It’s okay to expect but also keep an open mind if that is not met. After which moving on should also be something we should learn with time.
Getting hurt is just affecting you at the end of the day and nobody else. So love yourself just a tad bit more than you think others do! 💜💜
Thanks for your comment. And have a lovely day… 🌸🌸

The relationships comprise everything which you have mentioned. Relationships are always complicated and we have to manage the most complex situations with that. The emotions which are playing a vital role among people but irony is the emotions which keep changing in our life.

People will love and support you, some will hate and reject you. At some point they switch places. Dont get too attached.

Relationships are complicated. People change with time. They get busy in their lives. When our expectations don’t meet, we do get disappointed. The best way is to never expect.

The lesser you expect, the better. Makes life and relationships last. But certain values, should be non negotiable. The ex has no business. I hope that loving and life lasting relationships come your way soon

It’s kind of reassuring to know I’m not the only one I guess. Somedays I just get sick of trying to believe how everyone else changes and not me. Guess it is what it is.
