Thanks for empathy. Honestly it's just like, I don't expect more. It was quite the experience, and I'd just like a little empathy from family and friend's but ugh.
Anyway, its good to know there is some out there at least. Thank you again. Have a nice day.
People feel uncomfortable when faced with situations like these. It sucks that none of your friends or family are able to push past the feeling of discomfort to tell you that you're ok. But, people are people ๐คท๐ฝโโ๏ธ
This is incredibly reaffirming, thank you. The problem is either in Finland, or Finnish, or SW Finland or Finnish (we've lots of dialects and I think ours is probably one of the most rudest sounding one) or just me. But like, I'm really good at customer service, and can be very nice to people. But... I can also be really fucking nasty, I know that. And a lot of the times even too nasty for my own taste, but sometimes just hunger and loneliness really grinds ones gears and I can't help it.
Usually I don't do it completely without reason, so I'm just "overreacting", but like in general I feel the threshold for Finns to consider something an "overreaction" is waaaayyy smaller than with any international friends I've hung with. I mean especially Anglos. Or especially Aussies, actually.
Hell the moment I found one in Turku I spent like two days drinking and smoking with the feller. Good times. His tobacco was fucking strong, no idea where he got it. In a leathery pouch and smelled of like old tar and medieval times. Funny guy. Smoked me under the table, but I didn't have much tolerance back then.
