I'm sorry. The first point alone is enough für being royally fucked. The second on top makes it worse and I stopped reading soon thereafter, it's might only get worse and is hurtful to read. Again, sorry.
As others have pointed out, B is still well in use today. But it seems nobody mentioned why: it's because an A to A cable would be nonstandard and since there was no c yet, it's the a to b cables. C to c is okay and there are funky A to A things which shouldn't exist.
Exactly but you do get told as if it were so your whole life. And worse, if you're not typical, you could develop nasty stuff like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexithymia like me.
And now with close to 50 I have to work on the consequences.
Don't necessarily do what everyone expects of you. Do what you need and want.
For that, you really need to know yourself. What makes you happy? Who do you want to be?
You will make mistakes along the way and the answers to those questions will be harder than it seema at first and also change over time. You might think you know yourself but that might change too.
Do what you think is right and wing it like everyone else.
Feel free to ask if you want some more detailed advice.
Pretty much equivalent, since I was in an English speaking country early enough.
Yes, I watch and read in original language. However you also need some cultural knowledge to get everything. While that seems obvious, the devil is in the details indeed.
I always have a lot of fun with words that split up into multiple in the other language. Recently I stumbled over kind(ness) which you'd split up in German: to act kind (freundlich) and to be kind (gütig) would be different words.
