when i observe english people when they are not involved in any conversation (e.g. on tube), most of them look uptight and uninterested in other human beings.
And when they start a conversation they change completely and pretend they enjoy the convesation and care about a person they speak to (it looks pathetic if you are from another culture and perceive their real attitude, as they may think it is invisible or accept this mutual bullshiting).
this extreem change shows what is real and what is an overly friendly attempt to overcome the english antisocial nature. ..... being english, are you aware of this or do you think it is normal to bullshit other people ?

We only behave like that if we think some red neck trailer-trash loud-mouthed arrogant American is watching
(see - we can play stereotypes too)

If your observations are based on what you see on the tube, then what you're observing isn't typical English, as many natioinalities used the public transport system. It's a lot of people, in a confined space more than likely commuting, which is a known high stress situation. Get out of London and observe the rest of England and then re-assess your views. London is not representative of the whole of England or indeed the British Isles. It is over crowded and much more cosmopolitan.

You for sure stay in a great city the place each and every physique (all nationalities) is susceptible to be quiet and considerate until eventually they strike up a relationship with somebody else who desires to communicate. With recent activities in London, and different Eurpoean cities, is it any ask your self human beings seem uptight and bored stiff - they don't prefer to get abused! besides, how do you realize what nationality the persons you 'word' are? absolutely everyone, the international over, share comparable attributes and you will desire to comprehend out of your 'observations' that it rather is one among them! Why did you sense the would desire to ask this question 13 situations - in accordance on your profile! What does this surely let us know approximately you - according to probability we would desire to video show your insecure behaviour (or is it bullshit!) Get out and meet genuine English human beings in social circumstances and you will comprehend we are a exceptionally solid bunch.

The situations on the "tube" are not real. Do you know that? Have you personally talked to a "English" person? Were you this long winded and boring? That 'sprobably why they pretended to be interested and in your words "bullshitted" you.

this happens everywhere mostly
what i do is when people ask me how i am (a standard greeting yes?) to which the standard reply is fine or whatever
i say do you really care or are you just asking?
ive had varied responses to it but a few did admit they were 'just asking' as it seemed a standard greeting
although a few really cared too ~ though after i whined for a bit i should have asked if they still cared...lol

I hate the tube, you never know what weirdo you'll meet, and then if you do meet one you cant get away! Best just to keep yourself to yourself.
