Why is so hard for japanese people to express their feelings?
>>
Because such things need to be trained.
Different societies have different upbringings, leading to different average skill levels in emotional affairs.
And then there's of course also the matter of what's socially acceptable in the first place. If a friend in my own country is crying about a loss, I would probably hug them.
In Japan, that is not an option.

You're generalizing anon. You can't just lump an entire population into a category like that. There's some statistical variants and deviations when it comes to things like that. It helps to be more open minded about these things.

Of course there are, but that doesn't mean there isn't a cultural norm.
>>149206522
Anyone who's studied the Japanese mindset for any length of time has already come up with that analysis. All anon did was regurgitate it.

Americans are weird when it comes to social interactions.
In Scandinavia we usually don’t interact with strangers much, with the occasional smile and word exchange being the only interaction. Once on a vacation I was minding my own business walking down the street when some American suddenly grabbed my shoulder and began striking up a conversation with me and commenting on my heavy clothes in the warm weather. I didn't mind it much, but it felt really weird when I have pretty much never touched a complete stranger in my life before. Are all Americans really this talkative, or was this just some exception? Sorry for the blogpost, but I felt it was somewhat relevant.

What you experienced is rare, especially in urban areas. In more rural regions people are more likely to strike up a random conversation with you though, because they presume you must be new to or related to the community in some way.

At that point you aren't a random stranger. The context is different.

Fuck off Spic, you also don't understand feelings

A bit of an abberation, but as far as my personal experience goes, striking up a conversation with a random stranger isn't unheard of, and is generally considered an attempt to be nice on the part of the one striking up the conversation.
The shoulder-grab isn't normal; physical contact with strangers is generally limited to a tap on the shoulder to get their attention, or some similar purpose. That said, it's not something you'd see anyone get upset over; it's weird, but an acceptable break from the norm since the intention was friendly.

tl,dr: he sounds more talkative than most, but was probably just interested at seeing someone doing something that seemed strange to him.

Like Germans, the Japanese are a race composed entirely of autists.

This is why NEETs find their media so appealing.
>>
>>149206201
its culturally frowned upon

I want to move to an autistic country but Germany is a caliphate and immigrating to Japan is too hard
Where should I go?

Denmark, we're one of the least immigrant friendly countries in western Europe, though that's not saying much.

That's funny, anon.
Next thing you'll be telling me that ISIS is bad.

I'm pretty sure confessing love is difficult in all cultures. It's one of those universal experiences like mourning death
