What do you think of the differences about British people and Americans? What I feel is that British people seem really similar to Japanese when it comes to relationship and friendship.

Thank you for getting back to me.This is interesting to see.
For us,it would take time to be friends with someone new. maybe It'll take more than a couple of months to get close and ask for going out,chilling together,having dinner etc,however once we get closer,we tend to care about the friendship forever and be able to talk what is really on our minds.

We usually see Americans more energetic,super friendly,approchable and easier to become close.

Most of us avoid saying things like " I like you"or " I love you." to our girl friends when our friendship is still new and seem to be not trustworthy enough to share many personal things. It depends on the situation or time does'nt matter sometimes but usually it takes a year or much more to be able to say that.

I like most of Americans I have met, too.
What surprised me first was that
they came to like me very quick lol and saying super nice or sweet compliments very fast,which we don't say that quickly.

It made me flattered,however there was a part of me who felt like,are you saying this to anyone?so what are your real words?
"are you just being a bit too emotional?"


for example,it takes time for us to say " I miss you! I want to see you sometime soon!" to our friends.we say things like this but it just needs much more time.

It is lovely that they can be so open.

We don't do this so we could be more under stress.

that's why there are so many sarcasms produced in our conversation,once we became best friends.We often enjoy saying jokes,funny humors and sarcasms,which we avoid saying to people who are not yet close :)

I was just wondering why they can be so close to new people..

phrases like 'I miss you so much.'or 'I love you.' sound really responsible and heavy to me so I can't say that easily..I would want to be more responsible and need more time to know people.

I didn't realise the differences before, until I've got to know some British and American people.I just couldn't since they are both english native speakers.

in my case, I can have fun and I can be happy without doing them.it's healthy,costs much less, and above all else, I can handle my life without doing something bad🙂

I have about 10 british people Im having a convo lately and all of them are vegitarians!

it just happened by chance.
I didnt choose the people who are vegetarians lol

I like eating roast dinner..

but it's great that they have such many choices to eat as a vegetarian.

We live in a beach town near Tokyo and often have a BBQ party while making a bonfire on the beach with our childhood mates so it'd be kind of impossible for us to avoid meat here in the town💦

with yorkshire pudding!

it was our dinner last night.

Hi emmagiddis,

I had a scone with clotted cream for breakfast.It tasted good!

Cream is like the butter, you wouldn’t put butter on jam!

but if you turn it over,it would be the same?!
