Disappointment or deception can come from anyone or anywhere. Anyone with bad character such as: Greed, envy and selfishness, can disappoint or deceive others. Disappointment or deceit could come from children to parents, mother or father to children, husband to wife or vice versa, or from siblings or family members, but most times, people never expected such from friends. As a result of placing great confidence in a friend, it often causes sorrow or depression for people that are disappointed or deceived.

According to the Yoruba adage that said “It is not worth dwelling on a friend’s disappointment or deceit, as such do occur from siblings/family members”. This proverb showed that anyone could disappoint or deceive because “Trust/confidence in people is vanity”. The adage can be used to console or comfort those that are depressed as a result of friend’s disappointment or those who have incurred losses as a result of a friend’s deceit.
