Wrong assumptions are the real stumbling blocks in science and in life. Tell us of a wrong assumption [funny or otherwise] you have made which held up any understanding or otherwise changed your life.

I have assumed, too often, though not lately, that our government will, eventually, do what is "right" for the American people. On the back side of that, I have assumed, again too often, that the American people would stand and be counted when needed.......fooled me.

Please don't give up hope. It is as useful as Faith if correctly placed.

It's wrong to assume that if you love someone they also love you. Happens to me all the time.

Ever thought what you can do to break the habit? Or is it just that you are programmed that way?

@Mcflewster maybe I should stop looking for love. But I don't want to because I want love. It's sort of a vicious circle. Any thoughts?

@confidentrealm Of course it is a vicious circle and there are many like you - but none of that helps. Yours are the natural reactions of everyone and your partners are the ones who have renaged on your expectations. Most people who do find love have to go through pain of some sort and the solution could be as simple as empathy. Anything you have learned which helps you be resilient to pain and practices empathy [Really that means seeing things from the other side] should be helpful . Good luck!
