I'm English and have many Irish friends/colleagues. I apologise for my fellow English persons bad manners, they were probably jealous that you come from such a beautiful country. Don't let it colour your feelings, you're more than welcome to visit any time you like.

Ive got the same problem with my -- 'out-laws' But luckily for me they are going abroad this year so we are safe. Next year might be different though cos we've had some turbulent times and I dont think I will ever feel the same about them again.\n\nI would try and keep it nice for the children we have but if it weren't for them I wouldn't be bothering.

Well if you love her and want to marry her...I suggest you either move to her country or go back to Germany where you might get a more sympathetic hearing!! Britain is FULL!!!!

well dont let that affect you.i dont.  me, i am south african, highly educated and yet apparently from a 3rd world country. when i look around at uk, london - a 1st world country, i see the young people, clueless, older closed minded folks with blinkers on, and i think, was i eager to come and see this. like you, i didnt fall short of anything back home, in fact my standard of living was 10 times better than london, in terms of space, parking, less tax etc. but i came here to travel, explore , and my skills were needed here... and better yet, a british company came to my country , to recruit me, i didnt even ask to come here, i just sat back and got brought.... so i suggest to those who think foreigners are idiots, just because their accent is different , to think again - cos english is not the universal language in the world.... and british and americans are the people most likely to only know one language, while us foreigners usually know at least 2 languages.

I think that comment is too harsh.\nI am English living in England and we get inundated with French where I live each summer, it's enough to put you off the French forever.

I'm an American Citizen who moved here two years ago to marry my Welsh husband.  We live in London.  In my experience so far, most everyone is judged on who they are personally.  I've experienced a couple instances of racism, but they were brief moments of stupidity on the part of a couple un-informed persons.\n\nIt doesn't really matter in the long run if you stay there or come here...  It's your life and where and how you choose to live it and be as a person - your values and your integrity - that's what is only ever going to matter.\n\nCheers\n\nPS - the jobs market is great, if you have skills it's even better.  I'd suggest you start doing some Internet research to get an idea of what is here and what's on offer job and pay-wise so you know what you will be facing.  Ta

In the last 4 months there have been 6 murders in less than a mile of were i live,a shooting ,stabbing ,throat slashing ,hit and run and a man beaten to death by a gang of teenagers walking home with his wife from the pub to name some...and I live in what used to be classed as a good area????so when you ask is our government tough on crime my answer would have to be No! I really fear for my children's future and would leave the UK without a second thought had i the money to do so.It makes me so sad that this country is ruled by people who are scared of doing the right thing because it might offend someone or infringe on human rights.Its time to put the law abiding honest hardworking overtaxed population first -please please please stop all this madness now !

You Brits think that we spend any time worrying about what you think.  Whooped ya @ss one time, do it again! \n\nNo really, I would think that the common Brit would be smart enough to know that most everyone here is different.\n\nThru your question, you are implying that the entire population of your great country doesn't like the people of Argentina/ Bangladesh/ Columbia/ Denmark/ Ethiopia/ France/ Greece/ Holland/ Iraq/ Jamaica/ ...do I need to go on?  Does GB really hate the people of every nation on this planet?  Because that is who we are! \n\nLaGrange, Kentucky\nUSA\n\nP.S. Did you know Q Liz keeps here Thoroughbreds in LaGrange, KY\nLots of Ford four door dully trucks with horse trailers here. Clean air, sunshine and the smell of horse shit it the air....  Its a Brits paradise!

I wouldn't say that it's normal but it seem's to be very common.  I lived in London for 3 years after college and I met very few Brits who were proud of their country, culture or heritage.  Many were planning to move away - usually to Australia.  I often heard that the British policy on providing amnesty to foreign nationals was too soft and that Britain wasn't Britain anymore.

I'm an American, too; but I can't help having to ask you why you don't leave England, then?\n\nOr, if you're not living there, then, just avoid them.  After all I don't see any Englishman wanting to befriend a guy like you.  For that matter, I think you'd have a very tough time getting an American to befriend you, too.

Go to your GP and explain how you feel. They should refer you to one of their in-house councilors, which is free. Good luck
