Merged: Polish mentality issue

Hey guys, I'm writing to share my sad reflexion considering Polish mentality. I really love my country and I'm proud of our heritage, history and I would never exchange it, but there is something that is bugging me. Every time I come back to Poland after travelling abroad I get this feeling that we, as a society, are so distrusful and suspicious in our relations with strangers. Sometimes I think that it's forbidden to smile on the street, because people will consider u crazy. What is wrong with us? Do you share my observation?
