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?

    Seriously, no need to change. There are so many accents across the US, and if you’re anywhere vaguely urban you’re going to hear English speakers from all over the world.

    And the correct response to any Americans who give you a hard time for having a foreign accent is “How many languages do you speak?”
