I've often suffered from this, particularly when it comes to memebers of my family. I think the problem is that people close to you can often see your potential and build expectations based on that.

Unfortunately, what they don't see is that in order to live up to that potential and fulfill those expectations, you have to want to do it, and often people aren't willing to sacrifice other aspects of our lives (such as love, friendship, sex, and fun) in order to make those dreams come true.

I agree!Unfortunately,if you are a perfectionist(like me),things are
never good enough for you,because you think that(with time) you
could do it better! Irish
