/^t/In adulthood one encounters other expectations that affect his or her life. It is one's work very often. Supervisors' too high expectations may cause someone to become too ambitious. Then a desire to be perfect in carrying out one's duties may appear and may destroy one mentally.

In a marriage it sometimes happens that a spouse, similarly like in case of parents, wants the other one to be just like he or she would like to see him.

In a positive sense of spouses expectations they mutually stimulate themselves, invigorate and give strength.
