Do you need to be "tough" to live in America? (lemmy.world)

Hi European here.

I always heard America is pretty competitive and that the people are very direct/speak their mind.

I'm quite the sensitive person, so I was wondering if it could be hard for me if I would ever go to America and if I needed to become more "tough".

And would someone like me even be welcomed or would I be rejected?

Check out The South -- the coastal area along the Gulf of Mexico. Everyone is obese. Food is great and cheap. Wonderful cross pollination of Mexican, French, Cajun, Vietnamese, English, German, Czech food going on down there. Best of all worlds!
