Do you want to continue sending group text messages?

The sound of firecrackers marks the end of the year. Starting from last night, mass New Year greeting messages have been arriving. This wave is for New Year greetings in advance. As expected, everyone will be bombed in a large area tonight and tomorrow morning. Of course, it may also be bombed by others.

From the text message era to the WeChat era, a streamlined platform provides reliable group sending of New Year’s greetings messages! This has almost become a new custom for Chinese people in the age of widespread communication!

I cannot refuse or complain about the group text messages that come with blessings and goodwill. But a long time ago, I stopped sending group New Year greetings messages.

1. Sending text messages in groups is ineffective for socializing

I have also sent group New Year greetings messages involuntarily, and I have painstakingly combined the auspicious words in several versions of New Year greetings messages. After compiling, I even Read it through several times, and strive to be precise in wording and fluent in writing, so that you will appear to be talented and literary.

What impressed me even more was that I was assigned by my uncle who did not know how to use the group sending function to rewrite, edit and send a group text message to everyone in the address book. There were two requirements: "Congratulations to others for getting rich." , "Change the suffix to my name"

As I grew older, I got to know more and more people, and the number of group New Year greetings messages I received every year also increased. Needless to say, those who copy and paste, those who edit by themselves are also very similar. Occasionally, those who encounter a little human touch, but because of the nature of group posting, the effect is greatly reduced.

One New Year's Eve, fireworks and firecrackers went off one after another, and blessing text messages came one after another. I picked up my phone to send a group message, and suddenly I felt very funny.

You know clearly that group New Year greetings messages, even if they are full of literary and auspicious words, are not warm at all; you know that you are rejecting or even disgusted with the insincere group messages; why do you still want to send them? Follow everyone and follow the formalities seriously?

Group New Year greetings messages are essentially the king’s new clothes, a hypocritical game between adults. We come and go together to create an illusion of sincerity and longing for each other.

What is the purpose of sending group New Year greetings messages? It is simply to maintain or enhance relationships by sending blessings. However, sending group New Year greetings messages has long lost this function, and has even begun to have counterproductive effects.

Really, forget about people I don’t know very well. If a close friend sends me a cold group text message, I will be angry and sad for a long time. Therefore, sending group text messages has long deviated from the original intention and has no meaning.

This kind of socialization is invalid socialization.
