Relationships between people are not inherently stable simply because of blood ties or social identity; at their core, they are still built on needs, values, and long-term cultivation. When children are young, they depend on their parents for a sense of security and for survival resources, so parents have more say; as they grow up and their independent capabilities strengthen, that dependence gradually weakens, and the relationship shifts from “we must stay together” to “we’re willing to stay together.” Therefore, after adulthood, family bonds, friendships, and romantic relationships cannot be sustained by responsibility or morality alone; they require continuously creating value, maintaining respect, and reducing unnecessary drain. True, lasting relationships are not made by control, nor demanded by asking—they are built little by little in the process of mutual understanding and each other’s needs.
