In life we all manage expectations. I manage them every day for other people . However, more and more I find I'm not quite able to manage my own. As a result :quite often things I get excited about (in all aspects not just sex) just aren't quite living up to my expectations.
I now feel like I'm just seeking something more .
Does anyone else struggle with this at times?
How do you get past this ? Or is it a sign I'm just not pushing boundaries enough?

"There's a line in a Cheryl Crowe song that goes..
It's not having what you want
It's wanting what you've got.

Guessing she didn’t do too well in North Korea’s top 40 then. |

"Expect nothing and you will get everything xc
Expect to be dissapointed and you will never be suprised "
My dad taught me this. I usually follow it apart from recently |

" keep life simple for a while, pick something you enjoy but never get around to doing and do it and like others have said don't expect anything and you'll be surprised at what you might get, material things for me anyway mean nothing, it's great to have ambition mind it's a driving force in making you achieve but don't live life for work, work to live. |

Lifes a series of linked recoveries, swings and roundabouts, the challenging times are most likely the times we personally improve ourselves and gain the most personal accomplishment as we come out the other side.....even though it may not feel that way...

Stay away from social media or buying into fake happiness or lifestyles lol |

Used to be massively like this, after a few serious bouts of mental health issues I tried mindfulness, it seriously changed my way of thinking, try the head space app for a start. Live in the moment. I'm a totally different person to the one I was 4 years ago.
