Human disappointments

Understanding Disappointments in Human Relationships

Disappointments in human relationships often stem from unmet expectations or revealing true character. Recognizing signs of manipulation or insincerity can help protect your emotional well-being and foster healthier connections. Reflecting on boundaries and trust can prevent future hurt and improve relationship quality.

Do you know that feeling when your love for someone has turned into disgust? For example, when their true face shows in relation to you (and others) - whether they’re attempting to use you and your resources under a veneer of being nice, cordial, a “friend”?

That’s kind of where I am at the moment with a couple of people.

Humans just suck sometimes.

This is why you need to be careful in giving yourself to others easily. Also it’s good to have some Leo placements cause you get off on people adoring you vs you adoring them 🌝

I come from a very straightforward and emotionally open culture, so my experience may not translate well to a Western-born person.

I’m not bashing Western culture btw, but it had been often noted that it’s moreso detached and removed from emotional involvement.

I don't know that its a cultural thing cause I am the same. I call them fair weather friends. They are there for you when the going is good but when you fall on hard times or need their support its crickets.

Just cut them out, or give no effort anymore. Let them step up for once. Or just let it fade to black.

It would be good to express it, even if you wrote to her...better than internalising it....

I used to be like that! Disgust, hate, anger, etc!

But I like/prefer your title better tbqh

'disappointed' is an amazing description imo!

mostly in myself when I trust or think I'm sooo000oo smart & know people or whatever but you can't be disappointed if you think about it consciously because look at all the #lessons you learned! x

Sure you still can be disappointed even with learned lessons. One doesn’t negate the other.

There are no rules to how a human psyche operates with emotions lol

I hope you didn't fall out with the twin flame.

But just beat them up or call a beatdown on them.

Nope, it’s my old time Leo friend whom I called out on this 2 years ago, and just recently again when she came looking for favors.

And also the Cap with whom I’ve had no contact since early Feb. Still, a shallow and petty type behind the niceness mask.

One thing I never get fully over or forgive is being treated as a disposable friend. I also believe in retributory justice when it comes to these things.

Of course there are no rules! And of course people need to vent, feel, heal, etc to truly be able to move on imo!

But if you look at the #hiddentreasure in all of this, it's the lesson(s) you learned and how you can use that to benefit you & advance you to the next level in your life

Also you'll know how to effectively recognize & deal with similar situations in the future if they musttttt arise

best wishes x

I had a friend who turned out to be homophobic and I discovered she was subtly trying to "straighten" me out lmao

Only time I've ever felt both disgusted and amused at the same time.

Lol how did she go about it?

click to expand

I was completely oblivious to it, until one day when she got mad at me for some unknown reason, and everything came out there and then. She said she was trying to "help me in my attraction to women" because it was not healthy being that way (I suspect she was trying her best to avoid calling it a sin).

Mind you, this was the same person who took me to a strip club 2 nights before.

The irony in this situation was, it wasn't a strip club with male strippers, but the usual one with female strippers lmao

Maybe she was hoping to get drunk with you so you can pull some #girlmoves on her to unleash that inner curious lesbian in her that manifested as homophobia x

On hindsight, that was probably what it was.

But I wasn't drinking enough, and I wasn't handsy with the girls (they tried, but I have issues with personal space, yes even with sex workers). So I guess all hopes she had of wanting me to seduce her were dashed to smithereens.

That feel when you don’t know how to articulate own feelings and wishes and spoil everything for yourself with somebody due to own poor communication. Rip.

Anyway, @Ram416 , what does a girl have to do around here to get a drink with you?🍸

Disposable in what way? If someone stops being friends with you, do you feel you have the right to seek vengeance for that? If so, on what grounds?

click to expand

Not “out of nowhere” obviously, there was a reason - I stopped being useful in more than one way. I also don’t feel like explaining here fully, the context is not required.

It’s been rough for me. I’ve never really formed strong bonds with anyone other than my partner and when that’s done, it happens all over again with a new partner. Most of my friendships have been off and on and very casual. Not deep at all. Except for a Taurus man, we’ve been friends for a long time, but we’re not that close anymore just due to life getting in the way.

I lost respect for my parents when I went out into the world and learned that my parents were irresponsible, uncaring, and neglectful. Very selfish parents with poor life style s. When I was a child they were my world and very important to me until I knew better. That’s disappointing.

I feel like I need to adopt new parents and get what I’ve missed all these years. 😁

It is disappointing but your life is just beginning now - love and care for yourself in every way that you missed and more. Be good to you because you are here and you are special !

lmfao

she didn't even ask me if i'm okay or anything

That would have been the day our friendship ended, without me ever looking back. To me, that shows just how much you mean to here. If you can’t depend on friends in a time of need, there’s no point to having them around.

this is so TMI but....

back in college, she once had this really bad diarrhea. there was a single occupant toilet on there with thankfully nobody around outside so i was forced to stay right by the door while she took a shit. and get this, there were no toilet paper rolls. i had to run to some other part of the building to get some toilet paper. always thought we're such good friends after that. and there was one time she got caught drunk on school property and she dragged me into it coz she didn't wanna be alone for the punishment. i was suspended along with her and she didn't even defend me. she could've got me out of that by telling everybody she was alone. i always got her out of shit (one time literally) and she's never done anything for me.

try to be a good enough of a friend to at least not try to sell me supplements for a serious illness come on.

yeah my ex. i dont like to remember the bad things and its true that when you're in love, you have like these love goggles on. I might in a toxic relationship but all it took was for me to not be in that relationship anymore to see how bad it really was. Im thankful that he ended the toxic relationship because i dont know if i could have done it myself.
