The truth about living in Scotland | My controversial opinion

[@hothotheat3000]

I’m African American and I was a little nervous about going there but I had a BLAST. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming and I felt so safe. No one bothered me. No one followed me through the store. I told people how much I loved their country and they were so proud. An older gent flirted up a STORM with me. I cried on the last night because I didn’t want to leave.

aww this is so nice, Scottish people are truly welcoming.

I’m from Scotland - I moved to USA 3 years ago and I had a baby with my partner and we are moving back to Scotland. As a Scottish person that’s been exposed to USA - it is APPALLING over here. No help, no maternity leave, no pay after having a baby, terrible health insurance (which is what i knew but it gets old), the amount of poverty here and racism is disgusting ! The amount of veterans I’ve seen homeless and dealing with mental health issues etc. honestly America is so awful. As a new mother school shootings is my new anxiety. Me and my partner are moving back because over here is literally AWFUL

As an American who moved to Scotland, I agree 100%. The longer I live here, the more things I can't believe I used to accept as normal when I lived in the US. I'd never go back to live there (and honestly wouldn't even visit if not for family and friends).

[@christibaldridge2199]

Its the government. AND SO MANY PEOPLE here are easily brainwashed in the US by our government and the media....its sickening. Our veterans SHOULD NOT be homeless, illegals SHOULD NOT be given thousands upon thousands of dollars while our veterans get NOTHING. The US healthcare/insurance is ATROCIOUS! Its on the side of insurance companies, so that the CEOs ret richer. I could keep going and going...but Im already mad...

[@WVislandia]

As an American who moved to Edinburgh in 1988 and then over to Glasgow around 1994 and then over to Dublin in 1998, I can say Glasgow gets much more rain than Edinburgh but Edinburgh has a cold that comes off of the North Sea. Dublin has loads of people who are drunk and partying in the streets, so Edinburgh doesn't have as many. It is true that in Scotland you can have conversations with total strangers, more so than in Dublin. I think Scots are much better at celebrating things like weddings - whole day/night events.

I love the spring and summer and the light nights and long days my favourite is spring when we see the daffodils, snowdrops and bluebells are just so beautiful. It gets light in the spring and summer VERY early about 4am and gets dark around 10.30pm.

How much money is expected if attending a polish wedding? You sure you aren’t related to Asians 😂. In our weddings things are changing but the main gift expected is gold jewellery for the bride . 22c yellow gold pieces . And cash gifts are appreciated also , but to be Honest some elders often cheekily take them. So better to give gold instead . However if you’re not very close to the family you don’t have to give gold or cash. You can buy something for the house or anything you like and wrap it. However some ppl are becoming greedy now. They have small weddings and state no boxed gifts? Well what if ppl can’t afford an expensive gift? For me I’d love everyone to attend my children’s wedding for example and eat and leave their blessings , no gifts required . Buy a gift if you really wish to, no obligation ;)

America is a country of mutts (and I mean that in the most loving way) we came from all over the world. We are generations removed now from our ancestors who braved crossing an ocean to come here and just want to know where our forefathers came from and the kind of lives they lived.

If you live in Europe you already know your ancestral history so that is not something you want to know.

Women can blame themselves for having to pay half on a date, They wanted equality and now they've got it.

We're happy we do. We have twice or more dating options than you anyway

[@paulwilson2651]

@@MrSandman_0981 I'm married so don't need to date anyone I'm old fashioned that way. Women want to do what they like with no accountability. Funny how with feminism families fall apart. Feminism is the great lie and Women have fell for it hook line and sinker. Now you have to work 40 hours a week and retire 6 years later and Now there's talk of bringing in conscription you can look forward to being called up too along with the people with penis's eh.
