I think having high expectations in humans is dangerous because they're bound to let you down sooner or later.

Keep expectations lower so you don't get burned and do your own thing.

I really don't think simply being there for a friend is a high expectation at all. Infact it's part of what being a friend is, well a true friend anyways. Nowadays it seems people throw around the term friend too loosely. Heck I even do it, though it's only to not upset my "friends."

That's the part that got the OP. She is my true friend because I helped her in need so I expected her to be there for me. If we remove these expectations of casual friend, true friend, family then there is no let down and you've mentally prepared yourself for the worst without relying on people to intervene.
