Why do we expect things from others? and why our happiness is related with others?

Answer 1

you keep thinking like this, you'll never be happy. it's true that our happiness has somehow to do with all the things around us but the way you perceive them is what decides whether you choose to be happy or not. While normally we expect so much from others, you can (again) choose the other way around. Learning to expect nothing in return will be less dissapointing and doing more out of free will could be less depressive. ye who the hell gives & gives & gets nothing? ok, then you can choose not to do anything for anyone if everytime you do something will have to be reciprocated. remember that you can't please everyone at the same time so stop depending on your happiness to others. Decide what you want and go for it. If it did'nt succeed, at least you've done what you really want & be happy just the same without blaming anyone for the result. (of your happiness or fulfillment)

Answer 2

God has created human beings such that though we are most intelligent compared to other animals still its our new born who takes maximun careing period to stand on own feets. We are born and brought up in such a way that we remain dependent on one or the other directly or indirectly.
At maturity though we try to be idependent we could not be totally. The more a person expects some thing from others, more he would be unhappy in his/her life.
We have to see at the root cause, i.e expectation.
Dont expect any thing from any one and what ever you get think thats the gift from all mighty and you will be happiest person.
Expectation is the prime cause of relation and happiness.

Answer 3

Expectation is in the nature of human

Though Expectation leads you to tension, sadness.

Every human feels good if whatever he/she expects comes out to be true. He feels honoured, happy, proud and top of the world.

Expectation grews more when you do a favour to someone.
You feel that you can expect something good in return. Thats why we search for happiness instead of finding it in ourselves.

My suggestion is Do your right and forget it. As nothing cant be done if other person doesnt treats you well.
Actually you should do right for yourself(to feel good inside) rather than for anybody else.

Answer 4

i imagine the expectancy is low-cost. A balanced relationship has provide and take. the priority is when we do some thing for the point of having a particular issue. a sturdy relationship is at the same time as 2 human beings look to fulfill one yet another's needs. The trick is that it is not 50/50 perpetually. some circumstances it will be all about them and they could be oblivious, then you definately've a disaster and also you actually are not there for them. now and back you're completely in sinc, in spite of the undeniable fact that it truly is more beneficial the exception. you're making your self depressing in case you recommend a script on your head as to how they ought to react for your each gesture. existence is too complicated for that. Loving selflessly is acceptable yet loving stupidly isn't. If he ignores your needs, would not care about your existence and in undemanding words takes then that's a waste of time. you want some thing mutually nurturing. that could no longer egocentric, that's sensible. sturdy success.

Answer 5

Generally speaking, we are all human beings and God made it such that we need friends and company like in the bible Genesis. As to your question above, because we are with people, we have the tendency to expect things from others (natural feeling) and also our happiness is related with others as well. I hope that answers your question.

Answer 6

Expectations arises out of the needs , jealousy .and feeling of various complexes.

Happiness is related to a sense of feeling good. If we like someone and something good happens to that person , we feel happy

Answer 7

Expect is a word which itself is made for other.. so if u dont expect from anyone then this word has got no meaning. Expecting something from someone is not bad, you always dont end up getting hurt dear.. and it always feels good to expect somehting from someone.. you know they are going to be there when you would need them..
Thats why we have relations, beloved ones.. and enemies... you expect something from everyone... and you shd...always!!
if you get my point.. you can reply back.
take care

Answer 8

I don't expect a damn thing from anyone . I am very happy with myself .Its so much easier to depend on yourself then others and much more gratifying. Happiness is with God I'm not a religious freak i don't even go to church but God is always standing next to me that's all I need to make me happy . Maybe you should look at life differently and get a grip on it stand on your own 2 feet .

Answer 9

I think we expect things from others because we give things to others and expect to be treated in kind.
Not sure how to answer the 2nd. question.Well, who else are we going to share it with?What is happiness if there is no one around?On the other side,who are you going to be pissed at if there is no one around?

Answer 10

Because we rely on other people. But your dependency needs to be cut off somewhere, If your looking for every ounce of external support without thinking of looking within, you have an imbalance.
If I could look to myself for everything today, you bet I'd accept it, but I'm not wired that way. maybe some people are but not me.
I'm not a college grad or anything but I've "heard" that a lack of human touch deprives you.
Lack of acceptance could lead you to kill yourself, etc.
I look at all the lonely people.
I envy the mountain men.
