[quote=Anonymous]Look , real relationships require both parties to want to establish and continue that relationship. You can’t force or be upset when someone doesn’t want to do this with you. A call, FaceTime, text or social media message isn’t like tag now you’re obligated to engage back and now we have a close relationship. This is too one sided. If you don’t share a common passion or career, don’t live nearby , or aren’t aligned for both parties to want to be close then the most you would have would be a superficial relationship based on infrequent hallmark messages and well wishes. Some people like this but others find it really pointless. It sounds like the OP does not have a close relationship with the young adult nieces and nephews. They aren’t rude for not wanting this or pretending. Young adults are building their independence and busy. If OP is lonely, she should seek out the older and elderly relatives who probably are lonely too. [/quote]
