Disappointment

I have a hard time processing disappointment.  To be specific, I have hard time processing disappointment when it deals with the significant other and/or close friends.  In turn, I take any disappointment that might stem from me/my behavior seriously.  

I suppose ultimately this issue with disappointment is my own fault.  I have a trifecta of flaws that creates the perfect storm: high expectation, overactive imagination, and stubbornness.

This is how it plays out.....

I tend to plan entire conversations, outings, activities, days, nights well before they actually happen.  From that point in the planning process I allow my mind to work out all possible responses, sentiments, actions stemming from the plan.  Any deviation from that which I've already thought out yields a 'tude.

It's bratty.  I know.
