IMO. Our expectations are usually pretty high and when you fall short even though we expect you to at some point although we hope you don't we're always surprisingly dissapointed when it happens.

We're easily disappointed because we expect a lot from the people we surround ourselves with. That being said, the vast majority of Scorpios expect much much more from ourselves. If you think we're disappointed in others often, you have no idea just how often we're disappointed in ourselves. It pushes us to continue to grow and become better.

Personally, I have way too many expectations before I really know a person.

Or, I give so much of myself and it's not returned. Too much loyalty in my system, people take advantage of that.

I am learning to keep my distance and get to know them from afar... then jump in and attack.

We do have high expectations of those we care about and we have even higher expectations of ourselves. I refuse help because I know I can do it or figure it out myself. Even when its a difficult thing, I want to be able to take pride in knowing I did it on my own.

But we also expect others to have integrity, have standards of themselves and have good intentions. When someone fails us, we get hurt and disappointed and when we're disappointed...its hard for us to let it go or forget.

I wouldn't say our expectations are high we pretty much want the basics out of people loyalty, honesty and respect.

Some people just don't have that in them which is why I'm quick to cut people off once I find out they lack those qualities I dont have time to waste I want real friendships and relationships. Without those basics it is not real.

Might be my venus in virgo that ice people out in a millisecond lol

We don't like to settle that's why I'm disappointed.

I'm like fox. When I do nice things for someone, I expect they'd appreciate it.

When I ask for help, I expect they care enough to be reliable

I am also having a hard time trying not to have expectations of people.

Wipe judgment out from your mind ^

That's a really difficult thing for me to do because I make judgements everyday (not necessarily on people) but I do nonetheless. This new year, I want to try and change my attitude towards people. Sometimes I'm confused as to whether I love humanity or hate it.

I did it before I felt like I was reaching my higher self. Practice it more often and make yourself focus on being aware when your judging have to train your brain to get rid of negative thoughts

I just hate people who asks for my help and if I don't do it they change.
