Life doesn't always go as planned. Sometimes people get their hopes up for something only for it to come crashing down when it actually arrives. Life is full of disappointments and moments that no one was expecting; it keeps it exciting but also allows for a lot of heartbreak. Maybe that new menu item didn't come out as pictured, maybe that DIY project was a total fail, maybe the new purchase looked way better on the box. Whatever it may be, over and over again people's high hopes are bound to be squashed every now and then.

Reddit has a subreddit called /r/expectationvsreality. This subreddit features the comparison of 'expectation vs reality' things in life, when things go very wrong. This subreddit serves as a sort of solace for those who are still mourning the loss of what they were hoping for, and also provides some entertainment and fair warnings for everyone else. Here are 25 very disappointing moments from people's lives.
