Relationships are riddled with unspoken expectations. Whether a friendship, a marriage, a casual sexual relationship, a family member, etc, we all come with preconceived ideas about how it should work. And we each have a unique set of expectations based on our experiences, our needs, and our deepest desires.
Do yourself the favor of setting clear and honest expectations verbally in your relationships. It will save you so much heartbreak, misunderstanding, and resentment.
If in this process you discover a relationship is not compatible, practice letting go with love and faith that you'll find the relationships that bring out your best self.
