[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also British people are reserved and don't want to come across as nosey or too full on (like many Americans). You wait to be introduced, for example. As a Brit moving to the US twenty years ago, for example, [b]I hated being pounced on in a store by assistants wanting to help me[/b]. We are a nation of introverts.[/quote] I'm an American, and I hate that too. But that's happened to me in the UK as well.[/quote] ^^^ The false friendliness that many Americans project is off putting. I'm polite but some Americans perceive it as rude or stuck up because I'm not eager share the details of my personal life with strangers. If you're peppering me with questions I might suddenly need to take a call. [/quote]
