 I used to have no expectations at all. That ultimately led to me having an ex-husband 😁 Maybe I should do things differently in future. I shouldn't have any specific ideas about what a man should be like, but instead make it clear to myself what I definitely don't want. What characteristics and behaviors are taboo, what can't I tolerate 
 Yeah, I hate tardiness or ghosting and whatnot. I need to see some enthusiasm. 
 And I can't do drama or mindgames or whatnot. I don't have the social skills to deal with that isht. 
 I have trust issues. So honesty is important to me. I'm the type of person who prefers to be told what's going on, then there's bound to be a solution. I don't believe that everything is always perfect. I hate manipulation. It's tiring and a waste of time. I also hate it when someone is late but I think I would be willing to compromise at that point 😂 
 I get panicky, if someone is late or doesn't respond to attempts to communicate. Can't handle the stress. 
 I go crazy when someone is late, but I'm extreme about that. How do you think I felt when I was stuck in traffic on the way to see you two? I had to calm down a lot. That was one of my toughest tests. But I would try to work on that. Ghosting is another thing. I take that personally. Above all, I don't understand it. Why not say what's going on? 
 I know and we're such worryworts that we were constantly checking for updates. 😂 Nerdy chicks are a tough crowd. *meltdown incoming*

Just the idea of ghosting makes me want to tear my hair out. geez 
 My husband says he has to ping me regularly, like a network server, so that I don't panic.
