As you may have noticed, and as everybody else told you, the first characteristic of polish people is THEY COMPLAIN ABOUT ALMOST EVERYTHING: the girls tell about their big diseases, about them having fever 39 degrees, about how poor they are and how hard they have to work... etc
The problem is that if you try to help them, the reactions are terrible.
One very beautiful girl who is always complaining that she has to work very hard for only 1700 PLN per month, I showed her very easy way in which she can work 3 times less and earn 10 times more.
Of course completely legal.
The reaction?
Was awful, she accused me of insulting her, and told me to leave her alone.
I tested afterwards on other people, and the reaction is similar: when they hear they can really just change their job and earn 10 times more, their reaction is terrible, they say I am arrogant and I don't understand polish realities...
Must be the weirdest thing that happens here generally in PL...
You probably have been in the east. It's so called communist attitude. During comunist times everybody had work and they did nothing and got paid for nothing and now most of people in poland still want this to maintain, so they do nothing and like it.
And complain complain, gimme gimme gimme it's what i hate in this nation frustration frustration .. .
Go on then, tell us what you told her. - great, now he'll tell us all about how to make money off the internet :-)

If You told her what I think You told her she had every reason to be insulted, Polish or no Polish.
You need to reposition the bar between the praise and complaining. When's she's complaining, she's simply making conversation, or commenting on state of current affairs. You're not supposed to give her advice, your part of the conversation is to find something to complain about as well, like your job, or your state of affairs.
And remember, when she's not complaining, that's her high praise. ;)
they keep on complaining that they are poor and good and llife is hard but they reallly do not lift a finger to change anything...
Buy some books about the PRL-days; show her some food-coupons and remind her that not too long ago people could only buy vinegar and canned peas in the store. "Things are not THAT bad pobrecita".
whatever she's complaing about, follow her lead, but don't try to top her. If she complains about how hard she works, tell her that you work so much, you wish you had more free time. Or if she complains about her family, you tell her that at least she is surrounded by people who love her, while you feel so lonely sometimes. That kind of thing. Soon, she'll be going:"my poor baby, I can make it better..."
:) For Polish women bragging is much worse of a crime than complaing.
Yes,I usually complain about non-polish girls.Just kidding.Anyway you have always to complain.About colored,narcomans,Albanians,thieves,black cats,gays and taxi drivers.
