Disappointment...
When i was a child, i used to collect seashells and listen to the ocean by placing them to my ears during the night time. But as i grew up i learnt the fact that the 'sounds' coming out wasn't the ocean rather the echoes of the cochlea's 'sloshing' that's filled with fluid in the ears :(
What facts disappointed you? any age, anything.

When I was little there was a picture of Mary and Jesus hanging on the the wall. Whenever I prayed in front of the picture with my head bowed, a candy would fall down on top of me. As I was about 6, I saw my grandmother throwing the candy against the wall as I was praying. I was so disappointed it was not Mary and Jesus giving me the candy for beeing a good girl and saying my prayers.

Like the rest of us here finding out that the childhood fairy tales like Santa and the Easter Bunny weren't true, was heart breaking. I remember feeling so betrayed over the fact that my parents would lie to me. It was crushing to me, I never thought parents would lie to their kids.
The other let down was when I found out that I wasn't a Billionaire by the age of 30 and semi retired. I blame myself for that one.

Yeah, I actually was on the right track for a while. I just gave up to soon and didn't stick in there, who knows how far I could have gone.? I never though I would live past the age of 40, yet here I am a few years past it and still alive...
Santa Clause was one. And finding out I wasn't found under a cabbage was another.

If you asked some parents where you came from, they would say they found you under a cabbage. So, I guess that's why I'm an eggplant.

when i asked where i came from, they just told me 'You were born from your mum's stomach' and i'd be like 'how?' they'd say 'from your mum's stomach'
i guess that manipulated my mind a bit as i never asked again...

I was disappointed that my parents had betrayed my trust of them by lying to me about Santa.

And they told me the story of Santa was a crewel myth played on childrenā¦after having read you comment Colleen.
Cruel people can be cruel to people of all ages, not just kids :(
Santa brings them bills for not believing. Santa karma. :)

I was disapointed as a child when i realized my father was not a loving and caring father.

That discovery became a plot-line for some form of murder in my own child mine. My covert-hostility toward family members made leaving home without regrets much easier.
disappointment is a result of putting trust in yourself

Interesting...I found disappointment in trusting other to be a little grateful for what I gave them. My own failings have been intentional generally. Now, as my brain is faulter-ing along it's sad to see the body breaking down after all my childish self-abuse.
Seems like we've all been betrayed by Santa :)
