:: Expectation ::

In the case of uncertainty, expectation is what is considered

the most likely to happen. An expectation, which is

a belief that is centred on the future, may or may not

be realistic. A less advantageous result gives rise to the emotion of

disappointment. If something happens that is not at all expected

it is a surprise. An expectation about the behavior or performance of

another person, expressed to that person, may have

the nature of a strong request, or an order.
