disappointment
to think i could be disappointing anyone is almost too much to bear. my "pleaser" personality always wants to make sure everyone is happy ... and happy with me. when i know people are disappointed over something i am doing or have done, it hurts. i still haven't quite learned that i need to let people feel how they're going to feel and be okay with that -- even if it means they're disappointed with me.

I'm with you on that. I have a pleaser personality too. I have to remind myself that ultimately I'm responsible to God for my actions, not other people, and as long as I'm not sinning, the disappointment may just be something the disappointed person has to deal with, i.e., I haven't done anything wrong. There are some people who I think honestly enjoy being disappointed, and there's nothing you can do about it or them!
Love,
Amy O.
