...
I have never felt so lonely in my life, the extreme is at work. If I don't approach anyone, i can be certain that no one will talk to me about anything besides work, so 9 hours by myself, surrounded with people.
Its like they just resent me, especially the germans.
I'm getting to a breaking point i swear.
Good morning people! Im thinking about moving to a basically village in Brandenburg. Anyone some kind of experience in that field?
Yes, lived in one for a few years. Was very close to Berlin (about 20 minutes by bike to a big train station). It was nice not having all the disgusting Berlin people around. The neighborhood was full of nice people that did stuff together occasionally like summer potlucks in the street. Once a woman gave me a ride in her car when she saw me running to the bus station. Once the bus driver waited like 30 seconds for me to get there when he saw me running. Some of the other people in the village apparently heard of me and that I was a foreigner and were very interested. Just basically the opposite of typical Berliners.
If my landlord hadn't been such an jerk I might have stayed there longer. Just hope you find a job there. A one hour commute each way is grating.
This city is like it has a personality itself, a vile one. Some of the parks are okay, but many look dishevelled, like they don't put any money to improve them. The train ticket machines are a joke, slow as hell, can't buy return tickets like in any other city in the world, they run out of change, won't work... Where is the tax money going to?? In Berlin you only have right to pay, pay, pay for everything, some of the assholes cleaning the toilets will even make you pay to use them even if you are a f**ing customers. Germans are money grubbers crooks. It's disgusting.
Just wanted to let you know that public transit was privatized in 90's along with the German Post and the Telekom after decades of public funding (maybe Germany is the "world champion" in corporate socialism). After receiving unbelievable sums of taxpayer money they're basically all hellbent on increasing prices by 10% each year (or perhaps every 2 years, either way MUCH outpacing Eurozone inflation).
I am always surprised in other cities at how clean and modern their infrastructure is - even cities you would consider poorer. The recession is coming for Germany now though to prepare to tighten your belts even more.
When I lived there I remember one day walking in one Rathaus full of homeless men spending their day in a warm place and then I walked up to a rack of shelves for leaflets (as tall as me) all of them were about different programmes for women, enterpreneurship, associations and whatnot. I remember thinking it was like out of a gynocentric dystopia. Hey at least they didn't throw the homeless on the street I guess.
Why there are so many Single Mothers and Cucks in Berlin ?
The men here are whiny hippies who get a serious depression when somebody demands from them to actually work for a living. When confronted with the reality of raising a child they understand that poop hit the fan and they have to actually go out of their low-rent apartments to earn MONEY. It goes without saying that this is not the proper lifestyle for a true Berlin hippie man. Hence, they flee from all.
As for the cucks - I saw a documentation on a couple in which the woman openly talked about having a relationship with 2 men. Here is the gem (starts from 1:05): www.youtube.com/watch
Please watch how Oscar, her 'nest partner' behaves when she openly talks about sleeping with 2 men.
There's a race to the bottom here to be the most despicable version of yourself and still expect unconditional love. Why so many single mothers? Because they are truly unbearable. I am sure there are a few exceptions and victims of domestic abuse, real treachery and misconduct. But most that I have known or known of have been bottom dwellers who were, judging their actions, determined to remain at the bottom. On the flip side, as correctly stated above, there are a lot of males here who do their best to shirk responsibility through alcohol, drugs and prostitution. The archetypal Berliner male is easy to picture and I am confident that just usinf that term conjures the same figure in all our minds. The infantile know-it-all is everywhere here and no one is amused. The think that surprises me in all of this is that any Germany women manage to get pregnant despite the massive campaigns by the government for women to use oral contraceptives (the reasons for which you can research on your own) and condoms. Perhaps their own laziness is their downfall.

No seriously, feminism has wrecked the country. German men in general are wimps and simps, while the women are clearly disatisfied by this development and thus actively seek out relationships with foreigners. Usually the foreigners are not interested in anything long-lasting (who would want to commit spiritual suicide by marrying a Krautlady?) so the German woman is left alone with her child. Obviously it also happens among Germans, but when was the last time you saw a German woman with her half-African or half-Arab or half-Turkish kid living with the kid's father? I never did.
German men are hopeless wimps
German women go to Arabs, Afrcicans and Turks they end up with a mixed kid. I see many females on the street with young African/Arab mixed kids. Single moms are usually after black guys and lack any sort of decency. Otherwise which sane man would commit to a fat, boring, ugly Krautlady?
Feminism in germany seems to be to consist fo two schools of thought:
1) Lets be a man, cut my hair short and treat people like shit.
2) I'm an entitled child and I refuel to accept any female OR male responsibilities
Unfortunately, the removal of gender stereotypes for a rule based society just leaves them confused and angry, they need to bring back the mothership award so the german women find meaning in their offspring again
Yeah right. Women here are too happy enjoying their fulfilling careers as waitresses, cashiers and, if the gods are extremely generous, in the marketing department of some squalid German startup. They don't have time for children no matter how many years of maternity leave and daycare are offered. They hate capitalism but cannot find any meaning in life beyond it.
Finally Berlin cops have grown a pair www.youtube.com/watch
Why do people in shops here make such a big deal when you pay for something with a 50 EUR or higher bill? They act like you're the most inconsiderate customer in the world. Well, I will correct that. Now you theoretically are able to make withdrawals at some supermarkets with your EC card. If you ask to do that then they really act pissy. Why's this never a problem in other countries, even though they're all much more advanced in cashless payments?
I would call you timid but having lived here I understand exactly what you mean. Interactions with cashiers in grocery stores are negative nearly 100% of the time. In the evenings at Edeka there are sometimes students who work there part time - they're sometimes decent and not yet so jaded. But the average overweight brute women thay man the tills are pure evil.
Anyone here managed to have a NORMAL romantic relationship with a German?
I tried and failed, they are impossible to deal with. Glad I left Germany - it really does not have ANY redeeming factors: stpid rules, stupid population. Never again!
It feels like they're all either controlling or plagued with OCD. They don't seem to understand romance. They don't seem to have any empathy. If you want or need anything it feels like you have to state it completely unambiguously and even then they seem to forget it the next day. Maybe living in such close proximity to each other makes them construct their own disparate worlds. Communication with them is exhausting and it's not due to language barriers.
Noticed today that there are signs all over the city instructing us not to go to the emergency room but instead to call some dopey German number you will never be able to remember.
"Oh sorry, I didn't notice it, my bad" How can this be a hard thing to say? Especially since it's just reality and feels good. bumping someone..Oh sorry I didn't notice you. What's all the fuzz about that being hard? How could you even not say it since it is just what happened or how could you say anything else?
Bingereading a link posted below and I think one German poster summed it up perfectly:
"Maybe we are rude.
Maybe there is no customer service.
So what?
Maybe I am rude too. But thats like it is in that country. Whats the reason? I think it’s the social system in Germany. It’s ok when you don’t care about the others because you pay for them!! Nobody here have to be homeless, nobody have to live without health insurance. All important things in live are exactly required by law. And most of the people have great respect for the law and the state."
I mean geez, they already pay their taxes. Now you want them to act like human beings? Wow, racist much?
But I'm not saying you have to be nice in a repressive way. Sometimes it feels you could express anger by being kind bc it feels sometimes someone wants you to do something noncaring..the projection thing. Other times there is a lack of a real needed social thing. I was smoking at a crossroad waiting for green light. A guy walks right into the space I was about to puff out. Maybe a bad example because I don't usually smoke at such spots :) but to make the point. He walked in as if he wanted me to do it and then I did. But it was a different expression. I put it on him for carelessly walking into it plus even seemingly wanting it so. It didn't make me naturally feel to care and for that I blamed him. I respectfully with a feel of justice puffed out, but not passive aggresively. He uttered something then but it puffed away. He felt it had no business really oh right he coughed artificially and I felt dude let it be.
Homeless woman lying in the street yesterday, half-naked (no underwear) was disturbing af.
Not uncommon in this country. Also not uncommon to see overly aggressive homeless people out and about. Saw some loser who was getting arrested yesterday at Nordsee. Took 3 police officers to restrain the face-tattooed junkie. I wonder if these people were once normal or if they became this way because of this broken up city.

Project Gutenberg, a non-profit webpages that offers access to books that are now in public domain, had to be blocked in Germany because a German publisher took the American website, which is hosted in America, to German court. Germany obviously thinks its laws are applicable around the world as evidenced not only by this case, but also by the famous Impressumpflicht for all German-language websites and more devious cases such as the one against Frederick Toben. Now they've expanded their legal influence throughout the megalomaniacal EU, forcing webpages across the world to implement cookie notifications and the all-to-common GDPR opt-in messages. More nefarious though are the hate speech regulations thay are being forced down social media's throats and time limits required for deletion. Twitter is basically unusable in Germany now because 15% of tweets are mysteriously "unavailable" because a single report will result in it being blocked. If you think these laws and regulations are there only to help protected classes them you're not thinking. Make no mistake: Germany's still a monster with long tentacles, only this time their conquering the world not with bombs and guns but with draconian leglislation.
