However, you may notice that the number of visits to relatives seems to be decreasing. In addition to objective reasons such as the increase in the number of only children due to changes in the social structure, there are also some subjective factors at play. Let's take a look at the three main reasons.

First of all, some relatives just want to take advantage and refuse to suffer. Over time, you may find that some relatives are not only greedy for small gains, but even worse. They think they will be unhappy if they don't take advantage of it as they always have. On the other hand, relatives who have suffered too much are starting to get bored because they are often not rewarded for their efforts. As a result, it is becoming more and more difficult to go to relatives.

A netizen left a message: "Although I don't mind suffering a small loss, I have many relatives who always try to take advantage of me." Even if it is only a small loss at first, these small losses can accumulate into big losses over time. When I tried to avoid being taken advantage of, I found that these relatives actually started to ridicule me and stab me with words. It can be seen that when a person is no longer willing to passively bear losses, contradictions arise, and the person who takes advantage may reciprocate virtue with resentment.

Secondly, as they get older, some relatives are no longer willing or unable to cook a lot of dishes. At the same time, the younger generation is either too lazy to get their hands dirty or doesn't know how to cook at all. When visiting relatives and friends, the food on the table is indispensable, but the elders who used to be happy to cook have grown old and even left us. Even if you choose to eat out, the ** of the restaurant is much higher than before. Considering that you have to bring gifts with you when you go to your relatives, this kind of expense will undoubtedly increase the financial burden of your relatives.

A netizen left a message: "When I was a child, I could always enjoy a family dinner when I went to relatives. But today's young people are neither willing nor able to make so many dishes. Even if you go to a restaurant to eat, you can't feel the warm atmosphere of eating at home. As time passed, the family affection slowly disappeared. "It can be seen that as economic conditions change, the pattern of going to relatives can become untenable.

Finally, the widening gap between the rich and the poor has also become one of the factors affecting the frequency of visiting relatives. Whether rich or poor, they may face the embarrassment of visiting relatives. Wealthy relatives may worry about being misinterpreted as flaunting their wealth, while poor relatives may feel looked down upon. Therefore, even between relatives, a conflict of interest can lead to a breakdown of the relationship.

A netizen commented: "I used to think that only friends need to consider the issue of interests, but now it seems that relatives need the same thing." The relationship between relatives can only be maintained if the interests coincide with each other. In the event of a conflict of interests, even between relatives, it is possible to turn into enemies. "It can be seen that over time, the relationship between relatives is no longer as simple as before, and interests have gradually become the dominant factor in the relationship.

In general, with the development and change of society, the way of visiting relatives and friends is also quietly changing. But whatever the reason, we all want to be able to maintain a connection and emotional connection with our loved ones. Therefore, perhaps we need to re-examine our relationship with our relatives and what we can do to maintain this relationship in this changing social environment.
