Hi European here.

I always heard America is pretty competitive and that the people are very direct/speak their mind.

I’m quite the sensitive person, so I was wondering if it could be hard for me if I would ever go to America and if I needed to become more “tough”.

And would someone like me even be welcomed or would I be rejected?

    No Americans assimilate better than any other country. That’s kinda their thing. They’re overly friendly if anything.

    Avoid the UK though we love tearing everyone including ourselves down.

        Yes it’s a melting pot with a shared dream of prosperity. Grew up in the states, uk born and back here now. Might call you an idiot but it’s fairly surface level. Brits are anti-competitive and go for the heart.
