How do you deal with FAKE relatives during CNY

[viethai]

i havent gone to any CNY visits ever since my last grandparent died more than 20 years ago.

Now i doubt i'll even recognise my cousins if i see them on the streets.

The last time i saw them they were just sec sch kids, now I think all married with kids liao.

Same same

Call police if relatives are fake.

Say hi-bye if relatives are superficial.

 

[orpisia]

Don't go their house, stay home

If they coming your house, you go out before they arrive

See u want win or what.. if want win then fight back and be even more fake lo, eventually once they cannot tahan then will stay away from u..

But most i think are just asking for the sake of asking or finding topics to talk.. But sien is ask the same stuff every year and like no interest or bother to understand also, like ask u if u start working already then u tell them yes.. then next year ask same thing again, its like they never bother to update their database..

End up i appreciate those that just sit quietly and minding their own business..

Nope, you are so wrong.

they are Kaypoh first and foremost.

even if they never ask you directly your salary, they also will do mental calculation from your job title/ job location etc.

Work in cbd? Town? Or oversea?
Go oversea where?
Go where eat?

all these will be used to paint a estimated net worth of you.

No need to stoop so low as them!

I attended an uncle's wake 2 years back

only the older cousins (those older than me) attended.

The younger ones (those I didnt see ever since they're kids) didnt attend

Im actually curious how my youngest cousin looks like now.
She was only 14 when I last saw her, and she was quite chio back then.
Now she's 30+ lao auntie liao, probably dont look pretty anymore LOL

It's like that one lah. Like she would also think you now very lao uncle and wrinkle skin all over already. Who doesn't age? Most importantly is to live a well fulfilling and happy life.

let ppl assume what they wanna assume, is the best way.

anyway, protip for BBFAs, most TWMMs, ATBs and JPMMs also use the above line of questioning to estimate ur nett worth one.
