When my friend first moved her she had a lot of accidental proposals but she got used to these things.
For me in this way my past is in my favor. I never would make eye contact and avoided talking to men. So in a lot of ways here feels safe since that is acceptable and expected. I actually feel quite uncomfortable in a Western setting.
I find the differences in cultures fascinating! I’ve not been back to the States for a longgg time but sometimes travel to Europe and need to remind myself to look friendly and smile. Is a bit amusing.
