Anyone else get kind of jealous of other cultures that are super direct? I see a lot that in Germany for example people are very straight forward with how they talk. It’s ok to be brutally honest and that’s something I wish was more accepted

100% For me, it made a world of difference moving from southern Appalachia to Boston. People in Boston will tell you exactly what they’re thinking and I love it! Back home it feels like I’m trying to decode a riddle every 30 seconds of conversation and it’s EXHAUSTING

As an autist who moved to Florida for college I’ve had enough of the “southern hospitality” culture of everyone being fake nice and using double speak

I need to go somewhere else because I HATE trying to figure out what people mean and if they’re being nice because they like me or if they just don’t want to hurt my feelings

Love Boston for this reason, plus I got the accent so I ain’t ever leaving 🤣
