I know I've suffered from perceived expectations on me because I did not know how to establish good boundaries - in either direction. Now that I know that's my tendency, I can accept that I'm not going to be what some people expect, but a lot of the time, they really don't care or even think about me. For some reason, I assume that people notice a lot of things that to me seem really obvious about my own blunders - but really, they probably don't give it a second thought. Realizing this helped me a not make as big of a deal out of my foibles too.
yeah eventually i figured this out. took me a good long while tho. some things go straight over my head and other things straight to the heart. cant really predict.
