Not having time for social relationships (or other
people not having time for relationships with you) is
increasingly a problem in China as well, as long hours
get spent on work or study. You hear from students
that they broke up with their boyfriends or
girlfriends because they "did not have time." (Though
this may not always be the whole story.) Thus people
might conclude that it is more practical to stick to
the old relationships (family, marriage) than try to
develop new ones. I am not sure that I like this
thinking, though.

O.K.
