Why don't people like Chinese New Year now?

1. Psychological anxiety

During the Chinese New Year, few people can resist the greetings from seven aunts and eight aunts at home. It is said that a half-baked relationship is the most embarrassing. When two people get along, they are usually asked questions about feelings, work, money and so on, which makes them very upset, even more tired than staying up late to work overtime. The psychological anxiety brought by the social intercourse of visiting relatives and friends has gradually exhausted the fun of our New Year. Many netizens feel the same way about this, and they all said: It's disgusting!

2. Traditional customs are indifferent

The traditional customs left by the older generation are gradually becoming indifferent in modern families. There is no traditional custom to maintain the feelings of family members, coupled with the impact of mobile phones and entertainment projects, the taste of the year is getting weaker and weaker. When I was a child, my family would sit around and wrap jiaozi, which was very warm. A few years ago, I played cards in the Spring Festival Evening, but now I don't watch it. If you have time, lower your head to play with your mobile phone and grab the red envelope. With the indifference of traditional customs, there are fewer and fewer Chinese New Year activities, which is not much different from usual.

3. Spring Festival is too expensive.

It costs money to go home for the New Year, buy new year's goods, give red envelopes to children's elders, buy new year's goods for dinner, and send red envelopes to friends by WeChat leaders. The most troublesome thing is that most of the money is spent in many meaningless places.

4. Comparative psychology

Chinese New Year is a rare day for everyone to get together, but in the process of getting together with relatives and friends, because of the psychology of keeping up with the joneses, people always feel worried about their own state, and even have some negative emotions, which seriously affect their mood.

Originally, I was happy for the Chinese New Year. As a result, my mood was affected for these reasons, and my mood of looking forward to the New Year gradually weakened. This is also the reason why young people are reluctant to go home for the New Year. In fact, the real reason is quite distressing!

Instead, work in the new year.

1 Working to avoid holidays is the concern of relatives and friends.

Some people have experienced many lively and illegal festivals, and have long been numb to the rest of the Spring Festival holiday. They feel that the current Spring Festival period is not as interesting as before. On the one hand, it is because people's living conditions have improved, and the requirements for all aspects of festivals are different from before. Tired of the boredom of festivals, I may want to find a reason to lead an honest and clean life.

2 Want to make more money and choose to work overtime

Because the salary of going to work during the Spring Festival is many times that of usual, some people who are in urgent need of money take the initiative to stay and work to earn this overtime salary. If their company wants to have a normal holiday and rest during the Spring Festival, they will choose a part-time job during the Spring Festival.
