For example, because of my schedule, I can't go with my friend to hang out with some people (including the guy I like right now) this weekend. It really sucks, but there's nothing I can do about it. How do you all deal with the emotion of disappointment... or frustration in this case?

In response to Louis L,
I like this part of your answer: "Frustration is caused by placing more emphasis on unimportant social events that mean nothing instead of educating your mind on how to maintain a social life."
Beyond that, WOAH! Slow down! I did refer to them as life's LITTLE disappointments, did I not? I'm not saying I hate people or my life. Chill out, ok?

Short and simple
As one door closes, another opens
Which basically means that everything happens for a reason, maybe your ganna meet an even nicer guy that you like and fate will bring you together!

Learn that life can be disappointing and that social disappointments are the top of the list. Focus more on education and less on the importance of friends. Learn what family is about and how to take care of family and your education first. Friends are a dime a dozen. You need to deal with your emotions period. Disappointment is what you create in your head. Frustration is caused by placing more emphasis on unimportant social events that mean nothing instead of educating your mind on how to maintain a social life. I can see you need a book on this or some counseling. Maybe you think you deserve better friends and are too hard to please. Look at yourself first before you try to correct what is wrong with all the people who you think let you down. They have lives too. Your schedule is probably more important than your social events. Try to place more value on that. It seems you have a sense that it may be more important than some flaky friends.

You have to remember that when we are concentrating hard to achieve any goal we have to sacrifice our will.If we work hard in our young age and get success we can enjoy our whole life.If we slip out in this time and enjoy this valuable moments we have to work hard for the whole time.If you have a very busy schedule you can tell your friends about your problems.If you are still not satisfied you should go with them but you have to manage this time in some other occasions.You can awoke 1hour early for a few days.If you are rushing ahead to your goal you should never turn behind other wise it can cause you very much in this cut throat competition

Eating junk food that taste oh so good. Like a Wendy's hamburger, or a several Twinkies, or even kicking your neighbor's cat!

sometimes you have to chalk it up to experience but you can sometimes compensate by giving yourself a reward in some other way it doesn't hurt to treat yourself well because you are worth it !
peace out & enjoy the life

Frankly, i dont know how to deal with them. But whenever i encounter feeling of such, i'll do wat normal ppl do initially, either express in verbal or psysical, but i'll forget them immediately and focus on something else. Just dont cling on to things for too long, learn to let go. I dont know will this work for u?

If you start feeling sorry for yourself go to the burns ward at the hospital - you'll soon feel a whole lot better about your situation.

Ask this question of yourself. If , at a later date , you were writing your autobiography, how much space will this incident deserve?
