Is it right to have expectations from people close to you ?

Expectations in any relationship is always a big mistake that humans cann't avoid... :)

Expectations from anyone is not good as it hurts when our expectations are not met.I never expect anything from people may be that is the reason i am happy wtih my life. :)

If the relations are close,then obviously,there will be expectation.
This is also true that more and more close relations could sometimes give you bad experiences.

Yes that happens as we expect a lot from the close relatives and when it does not get fulfilled we are hurt badly. :blink:

Sunil, no matter what we may say there are always expectations in life over minor every day matters - like you expect your wife to do certain things and she too may expect you to do certain things, which is part and parcel of life.But when it goes to the extent where the other person feels pressurised in keeping up others expectations there is bound to be some friction ..

Among relatives also, as long as it is a mutual cordial relationship where the expectations are not demands , things would work...

I think its not feasible in relatives especially when they are close...they may even create problems in our life if expectations are not met...

In relation with relatives,limit should always be kept to keep the binding of our relation with them.

Expectations are seen in every relationship and this can easily lead to over expectation and also possessiveness which is an extension of it.All these feelings can easily get out of hand...

Expectations are the main thing which break the relation ships and create unhappiness. If we won't expect anything from anyone then there is no unhappiness and no relation breakups

Overall,we should leave the expectations and should live by our own. If this is so then why relations are made...just to unite and then separate.

But without expectation no one can live. Every one will have some expectations on others. that is natural thing.

It is best not to have expectations. Depend on yourself. When you need some help from others never depend on a single person or neighbor. Some neighbor or friend may fail but not all.

If one could live without having expectations from anyone it is really good,at least one can try to lead life without depending on others for every little thing...

What you may not do with your own efforts is always available at a price. It is best to pay for things and services and not to nourish expectations.

Moreover, if you have no expectations from others, they will also have none from you. Thus you will have no tension.

I think we should have expectations from our self rather than from others. Because there is no guarantee of the fulfillment of expectations done from others but we can definitely fulfill our own expectations thus making our life more easier and better.

Ideally one should not expect but life is as it is! Consciously or subconsciously such expectations always underline our actions!

Is this justified? It is only natural that people have some expectations from others close to them.But where does one draw the line? When it goes beyond a certain limit ,this can lead to a lot of unhappiness and the relationship can suffer...

Yes this is right every person has some boundary and they help you till that boundary and after that they are not able to help you..........Good thing is that become self dependent.......................

True!! And the expectations are always going to be there, wrong or right, they will not go away even though we may say so. Also, I feel there is no harm in keeping expectations from people you love, because that is expected and is also a part of your mutual bonding. Without them, there won't be much to keep the relationship intact! Because when there is expectations, people work hard at meeting them and in a way, keeping the relationship going.

This also is true, one must know where to draw a line and not cross the boundary!
