                                                    PART 22 [6] 

                    ♥  Don't set too many expectations & rules ♥

-----✿----------✿-------------✿-----------✿-------------✿--------------✿----------------

● Are people you thought were friends behaving

    like more of an acquaintance?

   Do you feel instant closeness to new people,

   and then become disappointed

   when they don't seem to think of you the same way?

   If you're consistently being let down by friendships,

   it's one sign that your expectations could be the culprit.

● Since friendships grow at different speeds,

   it's possible that what you expect to happen

   in a new friendship is different from someone else.

   You might have totally realistic expectations,

   but for whatever reason your friend is advancing slower in your friendship.

   Perhaps you feel a bond, but they don't yet.

    Or you feel as if you want to spend more time together,

    In these cases, your friend isn't wrong and neither are you,

    but you need to be patient... until your friend feels

     the same way about the friendship that you do.

●   When you've made sure that your expectations

     for friendship are reasonable,

      a good way to ensure you

     always have friends that can meet your needs

     is simply to get a variety of friends.

    This way, you'll have friends in your life to laugh

    and have fun with when you want.
