Chose to be offended

Did i just chose to be offended?
This should be a question we should ask ourselves everyday. We tend to expect a lot from people. Somehow, people just wouldn't think from our perspective, neither would they think that they will offend or disappoint us by doing certain things.
Could it be when we expect too much from somebody? And we just don't get our expectations done, and get disappointed? Could be.
That somebody may not know what to do, or it could be they don't think they need to do it, or maybe things are not within their ability. However, when we start to get disappointed over something which somebody do not see why to do it and do not get it right, we chose to be offended. In short, we should not expect too much.
We chose to be offended by expecting too much which seems to be impossible from somebody. Thinking back of my anger, i realize that they do have to do things to please me. I was the one who chose to be offended.
