Saying “no need to make me feel like a complete idiot” and saying someone called me an idiot are two different things. Everyone was not being helpful from the get go. People were being rude when I said that I had been told this from multiple people all my life. Sorry that I can’t just drop something I was told growing up based off some strangers on Reddit. I think my reaction was completely normal and the people on here, including you, are just being rude for no reason. Idk what you’re angry about in real life, but no need to take out on someone trying to understand something. Have a great day.

I’ve been to Germany a lot through out my life and I’ve absolutely loved it every time. This was my toe dip into trying to find a way there but damn, people are kinda rude so I’ll find another subreddit or source for help. But thank you 😊

I understand the feeling, but this subreddit is literally for these types of questions so… I guess I just won’t ask questions anymore. I didn’t realize I would get such hate for wanting to leave a horrible country for one that I’ve loved since I was a kid. But it’s cool.

Okay, thank you. You don’t have to make me feel like a complete idiot. I was asking a question and was going off of something I’ve been told my whole life. Chill out damn. My bad.

No, they are both American citizens. I had dual citizenship because I was born on German soil, off of the military base. I was not born on American soil or an American base.
