Don't want to get bogged down in semantics, but I'd draw a distinction between expectation and demand. I hope for, and expect, good performances - but I don't demand them and take it personally if they don't happen. I think I've learned to be philosophical about it over the years. I was thoroughly pissed off with the Forest result after the game, but I was over it by the evening. Imo, life's too short to spend a significant part of it angry or miserable. At least when it comes to football, that is. There are bigger things - politics, poverty, injustice etc - that I learn to live with but never really come to terms with.
"I'm not angry, just disappointed." I agree with @saintKlopp that there are more important things. That said, a Liverpool win can help pick me up, while a loss doesn't help if I'm not in a good mood. But more in a sad way than an angry way. I often don't come on here as much after we lose, just because I don't want to surround myself with the negativity (not a pop about people being negative) and would rather concentrate on other things.
As usually, we're in total agreement. Unfortunately, my recent mental health issues have seen me angrier than I'd like after recent results but I'm learning to deal with it.
Mrs back was hurting over the weekend too but not said anything today. The youngest seems ok now; he occasionally mentions neck ache but I'm not convinced I'm still suffering with neck and back pains though, even missed footy tonight . Admin side of doing insurance claim, car collection, rental cart, etc is a pain in the arse! Cheers for asking please log in to view this image
