How do you deal with FAKE relatives during CNY

[Itsnotfunny]

H

How abt urself

I am in it for a long haul. Enjoy the moments and u never know what comes up. Maybe my kids or maybe me will need help at some point in life. Better to have a friend than a foe. Blood is thicker than water.

Actually they don't need to serve us lunch

the thing is they ownself agreed to host their house for cny lunch wor

 

[Evil_Boss]

purposely exagerrate to make them jelly.

for example, if u promote salary increment become 8k, u tell them 9.3k

 

[Notbbfa]

Cut off all ties?

Is the issue with them, or are you the problem?

maybe they are the toxics that made op become irritated

Relatives are the pple chiu didn't choose but are forced to stuck with.

Many will leverage their 'blood ish thicker than wattter' talk to manipulate chiu into doing things chiu no wants to do.
Many will demand chiu do them favors bcoz they are relatives.

or tell u "blood is thicker than water" to manipulate u into forgiving their toxic behaviour and words, only to restart their toxic nonsense and disrespect u again

So what did they serve

 

[daveteo88]

depends.

some relatives insist on dragging their unmarried kids in their 40s along.

i prefer to disengage with these ppl, but in the epic swayness that i happen to bump into them, then i will just entertain. but dun try and play "one-up" with me.

The outside world is cruel. Family and extended family is suppose to be help each other when faced with the outside world and not one up against each other. If this break down you will be alone in the world.

Steamboat? Easiest to prepare. If cook traditional dishes the whole flat will be oily plus maybe nobody know how to cook them anymore.
