Not sure if this is the same or not, but I know where the Stadshus is, as it's right across from the bus station.

I realized I forgot to reply to this as I was eating dinner.
First off - you've no idea what I'm used to from the US, so please do not make assumptions.

Secondly - my reasoning to move here was in part because I was homeless, and given a place to live by my fianc?. I did not once say I would spend "all [my] time with other foreigners", in fact often spend many hours with my fianc?'s whole family (almost once a month). However, because I'm still learning Swedish, it's stressful to me to sit in a room full of people speaking Swedish, trying to understand what they're saying, and failing 99% of the time.

I don't think wanting friends who I can speak to in my native tongue is a lot to want.

And, before you ask, I do have a few friends in the US and in England, but it's not exactly easy to go to a movie, out to eat, go to the mall, or just hang out with someone when they're in another country and/or the other side of the globe.

Or in fact, totally not, as is oft the case.. And you say Martin is twisted? Classic projection.


Maybe you didn't invest enough or in the right places? Why is it Sweden's fault that you failed to enjoy life here and not your fault?

That I enjoy life here means I must be a simpleton because you class Swedes as such? Maybe that means you are sub-simpleton rather than superior?
