I am so sick of people expecting me to act a certain way.. it has been happening all my bloody life... my dad expects me to be some macho football playing star.. this is proven by the fact that he had the australian test captains for the wallabies sign a bloody jersey for me when i was like three.. and then there is the people from school who expect me to be thinking about girls racks all day long.. or the girls at school who think i should be thinking about guys all day.. i am sick to death of it.. i am so sorry for my little bitch session...but it drives me mad

We all bitch at some point. I know how you feel. It's hard when you have all these expectations from people, and they aren't what you are. It's stupid though, that people automatically expect certain things just because you are a certain way. It's not fair really.


Don't ask how I'm doing if you don't want to know!

yup! those expectations are common specially from parents... that happened to me my paternal grandparents expected a lot from me but I cant fulfill all those expectations so I explained to them I said that "this is me I cant push my self beyond my limitations, I'm doing the best that I could"

You can either do what people expect or do what you want, and that's pretty much it.

all our lives we look for the answer and ask the question why

exactly. What others think really doesn't matter. As long as you are happy with yourself and content, then it doesn't really matter what others say. Don't live up to expectations to make OTHER people happy, live up to your expectations to make yourself happy.


Don't ask how I'm doing if you don't want to know!

Is the question about that people have this expectations? I do not think so. Society does this all the time: "once a doctor always a doctor", "what do you expect, he is black, yellow, rose, gay, bi, communist, decomocrat, republican, smoker, etc."
So I do not think your queston is about "what people think or expect", but maybe:
why does it matter to me that these different parts of my life do have such expectations.
For your father this is clear to me: we give a lot about our parents. About what they think and feel and we suffer their expectations. However you are only projecting the ideas and expectations of your father. Maybe his love for his child is bigger than his love for machos? Maybe not, and he is a very limited personality. But you do effectively NOT know it. Because you did not reveal yourself to him as far as I did understand. Now if this is true than it is also condemning a person without prove of the "crime", right?
But I will leave aside the parents: why does it matter to you what society says about you.......
Have a reflection about your motives. It may help a lot.

join the circus and piss them all off

hey dont get upset about it, your dad got you that shirt when you was 3 years old, he didnt know how you was gonna turn out

As for the kids at school, well you know how it is, you gotta be put in a little box and labelled or they freak out.

When you leave school and home you will make all your own choices and mould the life that you want.

Yes nega, it always does and the reasons stay in the very concept of normality. Sheeps are getting nervous when one is running in the oposite direction of the herd. Mainly for the reasons that in these moments they develop for a second an individuality that makes them think: this big sheep at the beginning of the herd, maybe he is running in the wrong direction. That is irritating of course. So they try to go picking on the one who is running in the (supposedly wrong direction). The reason here is that is saver to pick on one covered by the herd than to change direction and be only two.

Still, what does it matter to us. The "others" is another interesting concept in life, isn't it?
