Life doesn't always live up to its expectations, there will always be good and bad moments along the way, unfortunately, life is just super disappointing sometimes. Everyone has been the victim of a clever marketing scheme before, something looks really, really good in the ad, and then seeing it in person is just a whole new level of let-down. Being tricked by these clever marketers is just part of being human it seems, no one is safe from the enticing ads, everyone wants to try that new fast food, limited edition meal.

Or how about the dozens of frozen, microwave-ready meals in the grocery store? Those are never as gourmet as they claim to be. Many of life's biggest disappointments can be found on Reddit's /r/ExpectationVsReality. This subreddit is full of just that, times when expectation did not meet reality. Here are just 15 folks who had all their hopes and dreams let down in the most upsetting ways.
