They were used to nothing but great things happening to them .They had the ability to predict what would happen in the future .They were used to having bad things happen to them .None of the above choices .
What may be the reason they expected the worst ?
This was a survival tactic ; I did n't feel pain each and every time people acted according to their own nature . You could say I became cynical , as I did . I always expected the worst . Over time , I changed these views . I prepared for the worst , but hoped for the best , and when the worst came around , I tried to deal with it to the best of my ability .
