That happend to Julia too

Reason unknown, probably greeting is a kind of bad behaviour..

this would explain, why some people dont do this..

[Fingerpicker]

Well greeting seems to be a hard decision, i often meet poeple on my street that dont greet.
And they are no chatbots, they are real poeple .)
Sometimes i thought the reason why they dont greet is because the house we live in is rented and not our own house.
At the end of the street near the forest lives a millionaire family, the website of their hightec company claims that their sales volume is more than 25000000 Euro a year (~30 million dollar), they are some of the friendliest poeple on my street!

i tried a week or two, to greet all my colleagues with handshake..result..many have been confused..some thaught i m going crazy...and after 2 weeks..i suspened my activity..germany is not friendly...

do same in the us...and you make new friends...

tell me WHY

[Fingerpicker]

Well its hard to discuss this in english but i think its a part of the german nature.
Many germans are focussed on material things and status symbols, you are what you got.
Many germans have a horizon that reaches to the garden fence and always think in the same categories...they built a house watch out of their windows and cut the grass with a kitchen shear.
Cutting your grass in the garden with a kitchen shear is one of the main reasons why nothing happens in this f*** country, focussed on the meaningless things...

Woo, CE take it easy there before you burst a blood vessel.  I'm sure there are plenty of nice German people around, like you for instance.

Got the same problem here in the states, some freaidly as all get out, others would not not even look at ya.
You can startale them by saying hello, loudly. <Grin> It surprises them.
