I feel like there are a lot of guys in Germany who are extremely socially awkward and don't know how to talk to people unless they are drunk or high (and of course then it is painful to hear). Guys who have managed to get into their 30s while still being virgins and guaranteed to stay that way unless they visit a brothel or one of those shady massage studios. I think being in at least one serious long term relationship is necessary for people to develop depth and maturity. These guys I am talking about just seem very unbearable and immature and usually have fringe beliefs about a lot of things. It seems to be worst among guys born in the east.
This explains why Germany is now a fascist state run by lefty AntiFa thugs, guess who funds them www.youtube.com/watch

Berlin is a liberal and tolerant city. I'm glad you're all disgusted
The only time a form of the word disgusted was used on this page is above and the post below about a group of soccer hooligans (basically apolitical antifas) dumping a bucket of excrement and eggs on a boat of innocent people who happened to like an opposing team. What does that have to do with liberalism and tolerance?
“Berlin is a liberal and tolerant city. I'm glad you're all disgusted”
First of all, Berlin is only liberal among other expats. Most of the natives are rude, racist, jealous, and hateful towards foreigners even more so if you don't conform. Don't believe me? Just step outside your door or work with Germans and my point is made. And what is tolerant? To tolerate something you don't particularly like. Who are they to tolerate anything!
People in this city are truly disgusting.

To all complainers - why don't you just LEAVE? I did and best decision ever. You all just moan and take no action. That's your own fault then if you choose to stay!
Good point OP. We have to remember we have the choice to be here! Is it Stockholm syndrome?! Many people have mentioned about not being able to come up with an alternative. Strange how this city drags you into this vortex. A FALSE sense of security. Arbeit (or rather rules and Order) macht frei! Hehe
I hate that you can know so many people and yet KNOW so few people
I have never visited Turkey but I am "almost" certain, that people in Turkey have more complete and joyful lives than the Turks in Germany who spend their lives by being prejudiced and feared the whole f*king time.
It's a weird situation here where the government's actions are at direct odd with what the average German thinks. If you get close enough to Germans they'll admit they hate all Turks and Arabs but publicly they pretend they don't. No German has Turkish friends, or any foreign friends at all for that matter. But it's hard to blame them for publicly pretending to be tolerant with an overbearing nanny state that will ruin your life if you say the wrong thing. The role of government here is approaching ridiculous levels and even well off people still rely on government subsidies. People are afraid of China for pushing through global censorship but the EU, led by Germany, has already made so much legal content practically inaccessible online. As a foreigner in Germany that looks Aryan enough to pass as one as long as I am not speaking, I thank God I don't have to live here as a working class Turk. I would also throw my hands in the air and get on Harz4 - at the end of the day the money is probably about the same as a Turk could ever expect to earn in this country that's headed for a bad recession.
I agree about it. I work in a massively multicultural working environment in Berlin, where the customers are also from everywhere in the world. It's a place where many cold-hearted Germans can't hide their feeling for too long and their intentions are crystal clear.
They can pretend all they want, it's just too obvious that they dislike foreigners.
As for the turks, arabs, balkans, and other foreigners who "LOOK" like them psychically. I pity them.
Most of them can't take it living on minimum wage forever and they start earning money by illegal means. They get heavily prejudiced at work. Every mistake they make, instead of getting corrected the civilized way, it gets snitched to the boss for immediate execution (getting fired).
This has been going on forever and I can't see any change yet. Though I don't know where it will lead. They keep saying stuff about Nazi groups and such old-fashioned-backward way of thinking.
Similar here. Our company is very international and we have a team also in Eastern Europe and the people here constantly openly ridicule them in the company chat (but that team is not a part of it). There aren't too many Germans here outside of management (which unfortunately is 100% German) but one of the few Germans constantly is on with things like "All Americans are X, All French are Y...'. If I ever get another job in Germany it will be at a company that isn't owned by Germans and has very few of them in it. I can't stand this eurotrash any longer.
Considering the fact, that foreigners who were born in Germany, mostly Turks and Arabs, spend endless hours in Spiel-Casinos and Wettbüros, sais a lot about how they feel in Germany. They don't seem to be able to blend with the rest of the Germans and I don't blame them.
They sink in sadness and somehow they find joy by spending their money on cards, slot machines, stakes, alcohol etc.
Is this what Germany does to the foreigners ? Because there is no joy within these people, so sadness is what's left.
It seems that Berlin is full of uneducated, xenophobic, rude and bitter freaks. Fashion is a foreign word here.
I am happy to hear that some foreigners took heart and left for another country or their own country. Even some Germans who live in the USA now, they warned me to get out of Berlin and it's not a city to want to raise your children.
Tourists don't realize it maybe when they visit Berlin because they spend their time with other friendly, highly educated foreigners and they think Berlin is a friendly paradise.
Dream stops and becomes a nightmare once they decide to stay for a few years in Berlin and start socializing with Germans...... then everything suddenly changes, for the worst.

I met a man who immigrated with his wife in germany. I asked him where is his wife? He said she's in a mental hospital.
She begged him for years to return back to their country because she could not stand it in Germany. He explained to her that they need money and they have to stay.
But she got mentally sick from the sadness in her heart.
They returned back but too late for her.
Germany is a paradise for people who actually come from really poor countries with extreme corruption.
For instance Africans, some Arabic countries and some Asian countries.
For anyone else who leaves his country for better money or better career, you have been warned, there is nothing good for you in Germany and you will get a bad quality of life if you remain here, even with better employment opportunities in comparison to your country.
I went to another European city for vacations and I got depression on my way back to Berlin.
Because the people in that country where nice, intellectual and civilised, despite the fact that they had less money and means to get by.
When I step foot at the central station in Berlin, I got shocked.
Why do I have to live here in this city with people full of rudeness. School dropouts, very low social education, broken people, damaged psychology.
Many couples live from Germany once they have a baby. They just don't want their child to be raised in Germany. They don't want the child to experience the sight of a damaged society. Germany has very good financial stand and opportunities, but intellect, common sense, unity and good heart don't exist here. Then the child will become hard as a rock.
They go back to their countries where family values, tradition and community still exists.
Yes, with no plan, less money but happier, to my country where people love life and tradition.
In Germany they have more opportunities and money but for the first time in my life I saw so many sad faces and it makes you wonder why.
I wish one day to take strength and vanish from this madness.
I am jealous of people who live in other European countries, happier....
I bet if they ever left their society to come to Germany they would be also very dissapointed and sad.
My life has improved infinitely since I left Germany and Berlin. Thats all I can say. Get out. Even if you do not have a plan. Things will fall into place.
I know the feeling. It started for me immediately when I had to go through the passport control point, where the descendents of concentration camp guards bark either bark orders at you or silently female genitalia and throw your documents. Maybe Germany will be an ok place after another generation, though I think we all know where it's actually headed. Thank God I still have a foreign passport.
