Hallo MEGA love friends :)
Hope all is fine with you all.
This topic today was inspired by my experience and so many others expats in Germany. It is quite fascinating that Germany is ranked one of the countries with unfriendliness and not easy to settle some may beg to differ which is okay too :)
Let me know your thoughts on this intriguing topic :)

I arrived in DE in October 2021, lived and attended a sparchschule. Bremen was a nightmare for me, I was extremely lonely. I returned to SA to visit family and came back end of February...I wanted to give up, but my little 12yr old son gave me the advice I always give him " complete your mission, never give up"...wise little boy! I arrived in Hamburg to start a new life and the moment I arrived in Hamburg, I felt the connection. So far, I love Hamburg ❤️. No friends yet, but I'm sure this will change soon! I wish everyone who has just arrived in Germany a beautiful stay...keep your eyes wide open and Sindy is absolutely correct when she says that when you find a german friend, it's forever!

Lol thanks for sharing this! The Germans here in Hamburg are very polite. It’s the first country I’ve lived in that strangers mostly ladies always say hello to me first on the street and my mouth dropped open 😂😂😂🤣. I had to look at myself and ask is it me or someone else. Also they’re very helpful and patient while I’m murdering their language. I heard it’s totally different compared to other cities. So far I happy with Hamburg.

This is not just a problem only in Germany. This is a problem in many countries. I am also a person open to new friendship , but having lived in Sweden in the '80s-'90s and in Italy in the '90s. I only knew Poles. Italians are not as open as people think. I have friends in other countries and they also have the same problem. People work more and more and do not have time to cultivate relationships. Then a lot of people have mental problems. In Poland, every fourth Pole has them, and the Pandemic has shown us that there are many more of them. When people do not feel well mentally, they have no initiative and are closed to new people.

Ahhhhh interesting to know your views and perceptive with your own lived experiences. I agree with you with so MUCH focus with work work and not so much with relationships like here. In South Africa we love to live with each other not so much individualism compared to here. People end up having burn outs because of over working themselves UNFORTUNATELY.

In my opinion it ist very dificult for foreigners to find friends here. The people here are more focused in work and are very racional. They are more individualistic and therefore they do not really enjoy the company of other people or enjoy small things like food etc. They do often only care about themselves and only want to recieve help from gevernment and institutes. So it is dificult in the day to day life. In general you can find some social partners in for ex. sport clubs or at work but it all keeps staying very on the surface

Lol when it comes to South Africans it's easier for one to make friends once there's a bit of connection the friendship starts but it's not easy to find a genuine friendship yooo i personally love friendships it's a great feeling to have friends imagine life without friendship i wouldn't find it easier..Thank you for sharing this ,
