Is Londas as bad as Berlin ?
I love the uk but do not live here if you cannot afford to buy a property in the location you wish to live in. I wouldn’t do London for less than £100k a year and £75k for the SE. There are jobs here in finance and tech that do pay £150k+ though so there is the potential to live well.
Why do people automatically think they are cool for living in Berlin? There are losers as far as the eye can see
Those people in Berlin seem similar to many of the people who relocate to Los Angeles. Someone from Salt Lake City or Topeka moves to LA and thinks they are automatically some kind of celebrity. I encounter so many people with huge, overinflated egos but have nothing to show for them. My dream is to leave this cesspool for good some day. And yes, I know from personal experience what a POS Germany is.
Someone please explain why they act as if you have done them wrong out of the blue? Can anyone relate? I know they are really messed up in the head, but I would like to know why they act as if you have done something wrong out of nowhere, it's insane, been experiencing this way too often and know people that expierience the same.
I was unlocking my bike by Ernst Thälmann park in Pberg and was getting back into the bike and maybe made a small grunt or whatever trying to mount the saddle As it’s too high. There was this ossi Girl who was young but had a look of a pixie Gremlin devil and gave me that slow turned head stare like a zombie out of some apocalyptic B horror movie. It was terrifying. I was merely getting on my bike. That area pretty much looks like a set of a dystopian hell and probably is one in reality - in fairness. The look was to the right and staring into my eyes with such fervour, and confusion in her face, like what was I doing there and why dare I share the same vicinity. That look was the look of a subhuman honestly- What monsters lurk in this ‘city’.
^It's because they are possessed and evil to the core. They take drugs, antidepressants, alcohol, bath salts and who knows what else that opens them up for all kinds of spirits taking over them, you can see in their eyes that it's not a human looking at ya, that's why they act that way, just stay away from them and run if you see those types.

what is life after berlin like? I am still getting mine together, but I cant tell if its from the coronavirus or what...
It gets better. I found it strange for the first three months. I moved back to my home country and it felt like my friend's lives had progressed and mine hadn't. After six months, things were back in place. I bought a new place and got a new partner who thank god was normal. It's been five years and I still think of my times in Berlin. My only fond memories are things that could be achieved by simply booking an Easyjet flight to some European city. I remember Templehof, the nights in Berghain, and the casual drug taking/cheap booze. All of this can be achieved in a single weekend, you don't need three years to do this.
Yes, of course. I only stayed two years in bErlin but after the first year I realized something was very wrong. Once the novelty wore off and I realized everyone had been partying as hard as I did in the first year or actually harder for not only one year, but five years, or a decade. That’s when I really felt disturbed.
Berlin killed my sexual desires. I’m completely asexual and don’t want any relationship with people here, let alone locals.
I guess it’s what Berlin does to people that refuse to do drugs and like common sense
Germans are just like robots..They are so into sex but so unhealthy and boring way.When you go to holiday to Thailand or somwhere majority who is so crazy for prostutuion is Germans.No wonder why.Sick sex addictors and sick mental.No wonder why there are just grumpy old grandpas and granmas.
"Why Berlin makes our brain shrink." If there is any brain left in these people.
I still wonder what he meant with culture.

found those lines in a forum, and I think they could fit well here:
"These´s alot of stereotypes about germans. Rude, robotic, cold. Are they true? Yes. Simple as that. Every time i came back from the US I had to prepare myself for the lack of manners and rudeness, only to be shocked by the fact that they are even ruder than i anticipated. Despite being born there, i´ve never gotten used to it. You´ve been warned."
For a Country that had such a Big population (81+ Mil) it is really a pathetic Country.
Nothing really Important comes from this country and most people seems to be broken or are just virtue signallers.
So the housing situation and competition on the rental market has become so bad, that applicants send in application videos, cover letters or bribe the landlord…without words.. this place is so finished
I’ve made an absolute killing on real estate over the last 10 years. It was never about the rental yield, but the marketing of this city. The rent freeze was even just a minor blip.
I started off with an apartment in Pankow bought just shy of €90k which now rents for €1.3k pm. Since I started, I’ve acquired six and now most of them are almost payed off. My portfolio has basically trebled in value and I pretty much don’t need to work soon. I’m very tempted to acquire more since I still feel the market is still undervalued.
To anyone who can afford to buy a place. Just do it but not in Berlin. All major capital cities are expensive due to easy access to money for folks who earn ok money.
Undoubtedly it's still growing but the bureaucracy is a pita and I can only see prices doubling in the next 10-15 years. Honestly, just invest in any place where all the young alternative people are moving into. If it was 7-5 years ago, I would've invested in Porto or Leipzig. I'm now too old to know where the hip stuff is kicking off. Another good strategy is to invest in up and coming gay areas. They usually take an absolute dump of a neighbourhood and make it nice or make it into a party drug den. Both strategies = $$$.
Trying to get foreigners to hate where they are from and admit german superiority is something very particular to German society. These people never learn
"Oh but in Germany...something...we are the best". Get lost Hans! you lost two world wars and in the process created the most cursed capital city in the world. There's an energy which exists in every inhabitant, whether it's a forty year old techno zombie in a club filled with naked men or a former East German labourer. You all shoulder the burden of the past and it's visible on your faces and attitudes. Unfortunately you'd think such past atrocities would be learned from and a bit of humility would be adopted, however, they still hold onto their false sense of superiority.
0/0 for Germany, -10/0 for Berlin due to the ghosts of Hitler, 200k+ soldiers and 3k civilians. F* this place.
Berlin is really like “dating down” except for your future
Was in a relationship for almost 2 years with a German girl from Hamburg back home. I was happy, I was social, had lots of amazing friends. She was very attractive and the absolute image of a female body that I've always searched for. I fell in love with her but I was blind to so many major flaws that came to haunt me later. She had no sense of humour, knew nothing about art and film, below average in bed, super dry, not affectionate, she had no way of expressing emotion or possibly she had none, the list goes on. She was hardworking and focused on her career, that's freaking about it. And apparently comes from a high-class family back home. When she got accepted into a school in Copenhagen, she dumped me in the most pathetic ways. I couldn't have imagined someone I fell in love with turned to be as ruthless as she was, a senseless person with no emotions to guide their decisions. Everyone around us was in shock. I was so broken up that I decided to move to Berlin to be in her country and possibly connecting in some stupid way, aside from finding a good job and being a travel lover. All my hip friends back home made Berlin a utopian city. I have spent the majority of my stay in Berlin during covid. I have no friends, I can't make friends, and to tell you the truth I don't even want to be a friend with them anymore. I have never lived or imagined a place so unfriendly, lacks basic human connection to such a degree. I'm so defeated and isolated. Partly got stuck because of Corona and having a decent job, where I failed to make a single real friend. My coworkers are weird to unimaginable degrees. They don't understand the concept of socializing after work. Berlin is weird man. There's nothing I can't quite shake off. Possibly WWII runoff of misery. I went to a dating app total tare, gone through tens and tens of dates. Either meeting depressed expats or so many German women. I just couldn't click with any of them. It's so fucked. They have no sense of humour, no playfulness. I just don't freaking care you're on time and you are hard-working, it means nothing to me. I'm tired of pretending rough sex is cool, the clubbing culture is edgy and hot. It was all a freaking waste. I hate it. Yes, there are lots of good people here and lots of advantages for being in Germany, but when I got to sleep, my heart says fornicate it just go home. SO I AM!!!!!!
I realized that my ex wasn't a one-off, there is an entire city that resembles her utter misery.
I don't think you can edit. Anyway, don't delete, this is a worthwhile story to share. Go MGTOW, you'll never be happier. Modern women are trouble with a capital T. Selfish, narcissistic, crude, greedy, they don't even want to bond with their babies in their formative years, career comes first, they're egotistical, as you say, ruthless, users, gold-diggers, never satisfied, fickle, want everything their own way, use emotional blackmail, emotional torment etc etc etc etc. Be honest, if men didn't have procreative hormones rushing through their brains, why would any guy want to be saddled with an hysterical modern female. I fell into the trap myself, but now i've gone MGTOW I'm happy-as-Larry, I love every day of my life.
I am so sorry about your experience. Hang in there!
I am also in my own healing from dating a German man.
He seems such a sweetheart at first, only to discover an insensitive selfish liar.
I still refuse to believe that he could be so low, but I guess that’s the denial stage of my process.
They are pathetic ...and traumatic, but I know once I am done, there no looking back twice.

It really doesn't matter. It's just a general perspective.
