[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like she's scared of disappointment. If she grew up with someone/a parent who was always promising something and then never following through? That would be my guess.[/quote] Sounds like a self fulfilling prophecy then. How can you not be disappointed by self-imposed disappointments?[/quote] Right? It's a vicious circle. There are people who sabotage holidays and events that are supposed to be fun and joyful - just to avoid the disappointment in case something goes wrong or doesn't live up to expectations. It's like they'd rather not do it at all than be disappointed so they're going to lay waste to the whole thing. [/quote]
