"Expectations imply that one knows best." Barbara Boyer, Courage of Fear

"Expectations imply that one knows best."

K, where this quote came from is short and sweet... yeah, right!

I once dated this guy (yes, i used to do that too.) Sometimes he would initiate conversations like:

Him: Why do you hug so many guys?
Me: I hug everyone.

Him: It is obvious that guy has a crush on you. Why do you talk with him? Aren't you just encouraging him?
Me: If I stopped talking to everyone that had a crush on me you and I would never have another conversation.

Him: Why are you always late?
Me: Honey, the only time I am late is when I fail to show up at all.

Him: When are you leaving work. I am hungry.
Me: Well, make yourself something to eat.

Him: Why do you have to wear that dress? I am not going to be there.
Finally Me: Honey, be careful who you try to change me in to, you may not like me when you are done.

Now, when you read Courage of Fear you will NEVER get that from that section (any really), but that's where it came from.

When i expect folks to be a certain way I am saying I know what's best...
