Why do I feel so irritated when my family wants me to treat them? I feel pressured whenever they mention me in the group chat to palibre something. Part of it is because I’m really grateful for them—when they were working and I was still a student, they were the ones who always provided for me. They would always treat me whenever we went out. I do want to give back to them, but I don’t yet have the financial capacity to do so at the level of palibre they expect. I do sometimes treat them out, but I can’t do it all the time. I also feel like no matter how much I give back, it would never be enough. So now, every time they ask me to palibre, it feels more like a burden out of responsibility rather than an act of gratitude.
