I've Made Mistakes In Life

I’m such a sucker.

I have a friend going through a divorce. I remember what that’s like. Life turned upside down. Moving. Stress. Fighting.

I bought her a present. Something for her that she couldn’t afford right now. A little luxury that she didn’t have to feel guilty about having.

It got to her yesterday and not a peep. No thank you, no nothing. She. An complain in real time, but say thanks? It seems I have to wait. Sigh. I’m such a fool.

She’s going through a lot. I find having expectations of others based on how you would react or behave often leads to disappointment. Hopefully, she’ll thank you, but you gave the gift out of love and compassion so check your expectations at the door. Just my two cents.

Well said. I was patient and she did give me a very nice thank you. Writing this and the responses was a good reality check. @ChampagneOnIce
