This a tough question for me. You're making me think when I'd rather not. You're also putting a crimp in my fun today making me thing about things like this. It's a toss up depending upon the day and what I'm thinking about. I've been disappointed in so many people during my life. Yet, I've been greatly disappointed in myself a few times. If I were pressed, I'd say I was greatly disappointed in someone else. My parents specifically. They didn't want children nor the responsibility that comes with raising them. I was left to my own devices at a very young age. If it wasn't for my grandmother, I don't know if I would have survived my childhood.
Wow, sounds like we are two peas in a pod more than i thought. I was also left to my own devises at a very early age, and my grandmother, i dont know weather i would have survived my childhood either. ;))
I feel disappointment in myself. I have different issues that have brought my self confidence down and I have let negative people dictate to me my self worth.
This probably sounds odd, given what a cheerleader I am for the human race in general. I do believe people are capable of amazing things, but at the end of the day, I mostly expect humanity to fall on its face because that's what it does best. I expect people to screw up, and because of this, I'm almost never disappointed in anyone, especially if I know them well. Me, on the other hand... I expect more out of myself. I know my own shortcomings and pitfalls better than anyone else, and so I'm better-poised to plan for them and overcome them. If I fail at something, it's because I didn't plan for a contingency that was within my control. I can't think of a single thing that ever really mattered that I failed at, but in the ebb and flow of life, the scale would lean toward disappointment in myself if both were weighed.
Myself.... I gave my word to a close friend about self harm and relapsed shortly after. It took another 11 hard years before I could try again. That disappointment turned into something that I am proud of now. It's been 4 years now with minimal thoughts due to a couple people from sodahead.
