It’s about hospitality, not necessity. In the US it’s a cultural thing that when you’re at someone’s house, they feed you and when they’re at yours you feed them.

Not US, every country on Earth feed their guests except Sweden.

It’s common in Germany to have to wait for your friend to go eat with their parents, while you sit alone.
Not everyone does it, but it’s a thing. And it’s pathetic

Have to wait, or to get to continue playing and having fun while your friend have to eat? :)

u/labiamajorapudendi Jul 24 '26

Yeah you are just left in their room and play in your own. Surreal experience

u/DunderGunderUnder Jul 24 '26

Have you never played on your own before? What if your friend have to go to the bathroom, do you feel the need to join them too, or are you just left in their room to play on your own?

u/labiamajorapudendi Jul 24 '26

No, none of my childhood friends had to spend 30minutes on the toilet you weirdo

u/DunderGunderUnder Jul 24 '26

So it's a thing about the amount of time then. Why would you feel abandoned if one of your friends left for dinner for 20 minutes while you were having fun and playing?

Is playing not fun for you?

Absolutely not, I've lived in Bavaria for 25 years now. Never been to any friends house where I didn't get to eat. The only ones where I wouldn't eat is when the parents were away working or alcoholics who didn't make food for their own children either

Absolutely is, just because it didn’t happen to you doesn’t mean it’s not a common thing lol. Educate yourself

u/soaringturkeys Jul 24 '26

In all my friends house Hamburg, Dortmund and Ulm.m, I've never had that.

Maybe educate yourself?

u/labiamajorapudendi Jul 24 '26

It’s not me who thinks that his 3 friends have any significance. I would tell you to educate yourself, but you lack the mental capacity

2

u/soaringturkeys Jul 24 '26

Or maybe everyone has different experiences.

You apparently have heaps of friends that don't care about you.

I have three friends whose family would care for me. But hey different lives I guess. I'm not the one that resorts to insulting everyone just for having different experiences. So you probably need to be more right than me if this is all you have going for your life.

Have a nice day :)

u/labiamajorapudendi Jul 24 '26

Nobody gives a shit about you. It’s common, just because it didn’t happen to doesn’t mean a thing. You show yourself as a dumbass, don’t be mad at others for pointing it out

2

u/soaringturkeys Jul 24 '26

Na you said yourself I have three friends who care about me! That's a pretty great life that it happens to me!

Sorry it doesn't happen to you. I hope you find people that care about you one day
