movie scene letdown

When, even for a split second, you begin to think that something amazing or romantic is about to happen, just like in the movies, then you realize that nothing of the sort is going down. After the realization that such a notion is silly and pathetic, you try not to look disappointed, mostly because you don't want to explain your stupid fantasy to those around you, because it's embarrassing.

When the buzzer rang at the apartment today, I thought for a second that perhaps the man of my dreams was coming to confess his love for me, but when I buzzed the mystery guest in, it was just a few guys delivering a package for my roommate. Epic movie scene letdown.

The Letdown

someone who tries over and over again but can never succeed, it's just not in the cards for them. they will always fail to fulfill the expectations of others, and will constantly create continual disappoint throughout their lifetime. they are undependable and wreak of failure.

letdown's syndrome

Not to be confused with the abnormalities in looks/faculties that can occur from being born too late in your mother's life, this term refers to an equally-unpleasant degradation of one's physical/mental health due to repeated "dashed hopes" incidents that you've encountered when needing to "answer Mother Nature's call on line 2" but no restroom was immediately available --- after having "held it" for a considerable time, you eventually see what you initially assume will be an opportunity to finally relieve yourself, and so you partially relax your painfully-fatigued internal muscles in preparation for said dump. But then at the last minute, you discover to your extreme dismay that said lavatory is in fact **not** available for you to use, either because there is already someone in there or it is out of order; you are now obliged to frantically "clinch yourself up tight" again and either wait even longer or rush off to look for another toilet. But of course it is now much harder to "hold it in" because you have unwittingly allowed your poop-load to partially "slide downwards", and so you may now encounter more difficulty in "keeping your grip on it" than if you'd waited to see for certain if you could indeed go potty before partially "letting go".

Another possible contributing factor to letdown's syndrome, of course, is if you sometimes "relax too far" when thinking that you're gonna have a chance to poop but then are not able to and therefore hafta "clamp up" again --- if you've inadvertently allowed your poop-log to "progress outwards" too far, you pose the risk of "pinching one off" when you hastily re-tighten your sphincter-muscles, and thus you may actually squeeze some of your unmentionables out in your feverish efforts to "re-establish your grip" on said yuckies. Further comments/explanation unnecessary.
