    Are Germans Rude?

    Germans aren't really rude, they are more direct and may seem distant if they do not know you. My experience in stores and restaurants has been pretty positive, maybe because I have learned German. I have met many helpful and polite people in German. Once when i arrived tired in Schwaebisch Hall, the owner of the hotel and restaurant sat and had dinner with us and we helped each other with our language problems and laughed over our failings. I have also been approached when reading a map and asked if I needed help in Berlin and Hamburg. I have noticed also that people in Germany are not loud in public and when I am there I have learned to lower my voice. I am American but I have cringed when I have been around other Americans who have not learned to do this. At times I have been a bit confused about people and their behavior in Germany, but I am sure they may feel the same about us.
