It 's been my experience that those who expect "nothing"...are seldon disappointed. Don't we all have the expectation that we will be treated well, respected, loved in return?? When a relationship is no longer taking care of the needs and desires of the people involved than isn't it true that we can expect for it to end. The last man in my life said that he expected nothing from our relationship... it ended and now there is nothing! He just went away without a word of explanation...nothing.
