Relatives and neighbors are people we often come into contact with in our daily lives. They may be related to us by blood, or they may be members of the community near where we live. However, in the process of getting along with them, do we feel a closer connection? Is blood thicker than water among relatives, and is there more friendliness and harmony between neighbors? Let's take a look at it together.
First, let's talk about relationships with neighbors. Neighbors are one of the closest groups in our lives, and living next to them will inevitably cause us to intersect. Sometimes, the interaction between neighbors can make us feel warm and harmonious. We will help each other and share joys and sorrows. This relatively close relationship makes it easier for us to form true friendships.
However, it is also undeniable that not all neighbors are able to get along easily. Some neighbors may bother and upset us.
First of all, there are those neighbors who love to take advantage. They always try to profit from others, regardless of the feelings and rights of others. It is difficult for us to have a good experience with such neighbors, because they tend to get carried away and may even be treacherous.
Secondly, the neighbors who are gossiping are also people we should avoid. There are often some people in life who like to gossip about other people's parents, and like to spread rumors and create disputes. If we stay too close to such people, it will not only affect our mood, but it may also cause them to misunderstand or maliciously attack us. Such human qualities deserve a question mark and we should stay away from them.
Finally, don't associate with narrow-minded neighbors. After all, neighbors live in the same neighborhood or building, and it is inevitable that they will intersect. But if the other party is a person who likes to think about small things, and a little friction can make them hold a grudge and possibly retaliate against us, then we should be wary of such neighbors. The scary thing about this kind of person is that once friction occurs, they will remember your mistakes for a long time and are not willing to forgive or let go.
The relationship between relatives seems to be more related by blood than between neighbors. We often think that blood is thicker than water, and the bond between relatives is stronger. However, this is often not the case. Sometimes, the relationship between relatives is not as close and harmonious as we think.
First of all, we should avoid associating with those snobbish loved ones. When we have money, they are friendly to us and recognize us as relatives; And when we are down, they may turn their backs and deny people, or even fall into the trap. Such people do not care about our feelings and predicaments, but only care about their own interests. No matter how close we are, we must keep our distance so as not to be hurt by them.
Secondly, relatives who see money are not the ones we should associate with. In our daily lives, we often hear examples of conflicts and conflicts between relatives due to inheritance disputes or borrowing issues. When there is no interest involved, relatives may have a good relationship, but when it comes to monetary interests, they may quarrel or even turn their faces. No matter how close we are to our loved ones, we must also be vigilant to avoid hurting each other's feelings because of financial problems.
Finally, don't associate with loved ones who don't know how to be grateful. As relatives, it is a common phenomenon to help each other and take care of each other. However, if we meet selfish, unempathetic loved ones who take our help for granted, or even complain about it, then we should understand that such people are not worth associating. Such loved ones will only cause us distress and disappointment, and it is better to stay away from them than to waste time and energy with them.
Whether it is relatives or neighbors, you need to keep a certain distance when socializing. After all, even between husband and wife, sleeping in the same bed every day, there will inevitably be quarrels and conflicts. And what about people who are not directly related to us? Therefore, there is some truth in the saying that distance produces beauty.

Remember, it is very important to maintain a certain distance and vigilance when dealing with them. Only in this way can we have healthy and happy relationships and make our lives more harmonious and fulfilling.
