When the epidemic comes, it is not only a moment of loneliness and love for many people, but also a moment of crisis for many middle-aged couples.
This period ofhappened to be the moment when the Taiwanese drama "Want to See You" was on fire. The youth love that transcends time and age has moved countless people. The current Douban score has reached 9.2 points. The "Only if you asked to see me, our meeting would be meaningful to me" engraved on the ring of Li Ziwei and Huang Yuxuan in it has touched countless boys and girls, and Let this cold and ruthless Spring Festival have more warmth.
However, for some other middle-aged people, this is not a "want to see you" moment, but a moment when they don't want to see you.
The long-term relationship left them with nothing to say. Usually, everyone goes out to work, or is busy with children's education and study, and a lot of time is filled up. Once on vacation, once isolated, once in the same room, they immediately appear free.
But the middle-aged married life where feelings have been exhausted and life has been empty, leaving them with nothing to say and ruthless to talk about. The busyness during the day can also cover up this embarrassment, but at night, when you can’t use your mobile phone anymore, you can only force yourself to lie down, close your eyes, and reflect on your day’s life while pretending to sleep. Think about your plan after returning to work and the boss’ attitude , The pressure of colleagues, slowly hypnotizing myself.
And the ta next to him may be closing his eyes and sinking into his own life and work imagination. They are also thinking about how this year's work will be carried out, how leaders and colleagues will respond, and how subordinates should manage.
They all have their own worries. Unfortunately, they are no longer the lovers who talk about everything. More importantly, they seem to no longer pay attention to their emotional life. Perhaps the only requirement is that the other party should not cheat or destroy the peace of marriage.
Valentine's Day on February 14, just after the date of resumption of work on February 10, also let many people escape a catastrophe. Otherwise, the eyes are facing each other, and there are children and even the elders in between, how can we spend this embarrassing time?
It is often said that middle-aged people use double-sided tape, sandwiched between parents/in-laws and wife/husband. The middle-aged people of this era are in another kind of sandwich layer, with families that can't go back on one side, and companies that don't want to go on the other. Once, family is where the warmth and love are, but now it is where the pressure is. The company is where the career and dreams are, but now it is where fatigue and hardship are.
The crisis facing the family is mainly money. Children go to school, parents see a doctor, buy a car to buy a house, coworkers socialize, all of which cost money, and you have to grow old in a blink of an eye and you need to save money. Before and after the flowers, I am afraid it belongs only to the rich second-generation young people like Li Ziwei.
The crisis the company faces is mainly to make money. 996’s work system, more competition from young graduates who are willing to work overtime, the boss’s contempt for young people, and most of the only salary increases are also taxed.
Maybe, it is not the eyes that are closed, but the hope for the future. It is not love that pretends to sleep, but the dream of life. This generation of middle-aged people is really hard.
