There's nothing wrong with hope and expectation, really. They are inherently stored in our default system. The problem is that the process of hoping and expecting is both excruciating and tiring. So if you can't stand hoping and expecting, don't. Save your energy for things you can have, already have and those you take for granted.
However, there's a catch to it. Once you've given up hope and stop expecting you will lead a dull and uninteresting life. Your life will be uneventful because you also stop taking risks. There will be no surprises. The good news is you have less chance of getting hurt.
So if you think you will be able to grit your teeth and endure the pain everytime your expectation fails to materialize, go for it. Nurture your hope and build up your expectation. But if you think the pain is not worth all the while, stop hoping and expecting and welcome to a dull but depression-free life.
