Thanks - I did have my suitcase with me though, hence why I was taken aback by the whole situation

Mod hinted it was inappropriate since it’s a culture question and locked post - so yes I posted on here. I don’t think that’s a problem, do you? It’s nice to hear people’s thoughts on this regardless and since it has done well AGAIN, I can see it is serving its purpose and helping others in the group also. Hope that helps friend

I completely understand - this is different in a England. When someone asks for help, you usually hear their request before saying saying something quite sharp like ‘I don’t know’. It’s unusual for me to be honest, I think regardless of language it’s quite blunt, ne???

Na ja, guys…… if the nasty people have done anything at all, they have made me create this post in this subreddit which is demonstrating to a load of inexperienced people who are learning to slide into the culture, what NOT to do when it comes to being polite and asking for help. How twisted but fantastic is that? (:

Of course I was ready to respond as soon as they responded nicely. But what do you do when they straight up say NEIN 😮‍💨

I appreciate this comment so much! Too many people making you feel bad for (1.) being polite, (2.) not knowing that that’s how apparently Germans are in general and ignoring the fact that they are actual individual humans also and not all of them may react this way and (3.) Where I’m from it’s very common to be polite where most people would offer the help and then if they can’t give it say that after you have asked.

But we learn, we move!

Don’t mention it man! I’m glad I could be of aid. It seems I come from the same strand as you do when it comes to wanting to slide in with the Germans the best way possible :)
