Rules of the Game
You must know how to be happy in life or else there are enough people in this world to make you sad.The foremost and probably the only successfull rule to happiness is not to keep any expectations of anybody.The moment you expect something and the expectation isnt fruitful you brood,you fret you fume and kill yourself mentally.Take for instance the following scenario,you are very hungry..you dont want to go out alone ,you want some company.you ask your best friend he/she turns down the offer.Now if you expected your friend to surely come and banked everything on that..you would be ruined..u will feel digusted..left out.But on the other hand you had planned something like, if your friend doesnt turn up you have plan a-Order something to your seat, plan b-Go get yourself something packed and have it in your seat.You mentally decide that you will have an option ready even if your friend turns down your request,this way wont you be more happy?.Its amazing how being proactive to 'expecations falling apart' can be from 'reacting sadly' to the same.In short keep your expectations but dont live on them.

What is the measure of happiness is the question to be answered.Having food is happiness or going with your best
friend(he/she) and having is happiness(according to your
example)?.If the first one is true, then whatever your plans
(A&B)work well.Else, according to the situation where
people can get ruined and disguisted so easily for just not
accompaning for food it justifies the relationship of the
person with his/her Best Friend.And theres where
expectations come.We don't expect anything from anyone
in this world....we expect from people whom we care and
we are more attached to.Thats life.
But we can always keep expectations and happiness on two parellel tracks.There are so many things u can share with people and reap happiness.You neccesarily neednt derive happiness from fulfillment of expectations.Thats exaclty my contention.
