When dealing with interpersonal or emotional entanglements, people value the philosophy of the golden mean—such as 'shike erzhi' (knowing when to stop) and 'guoyou buji' (going too far is as bad as not going far enough)—believing that exercising restraint or leaving a hint of regret is often wiser than obsessive clinging.
