The dark side of speaking a foreign language not as a hobby

Learning foreign languages is a very interesting thing.
But it is also a truth to say that there is a big diffference when you have to use it for your daily life (even when are not ready yet) and when you practice it as a hobby.

Here are some may be not so pleasant and widely discussed realities of speaking a foreign language for life reasons especially in another country :

- You might be perceived as less intelligent simply because you speak slowly or make mistakes. And other people show it clearly to you
- Some people may avoid conversations with you, because of impatience or discomfort .
- You often feel pressure to be extra polite, funny and charming just to gain acceptance and smooth interactions . But the more you try the worse it could be .
- Misunderstandings can lead to frustration or embarrassment.
- Expressing complex or emotional ideas clearly can be very challenging. And it could affects your personal and professional relationships. ( The corporate life at the office sometimes could be like a rugby football match)

Here should be a final encouraging phrase but frankly speaking I have no one ( please see my p.3 from the list )
It is what it is, there are always two sides for everything.
Have a good learning experience !

I agree with your points and have three more to offer
-It can be exhausting. A five minute conversation might wipe you out.
-Your brain may shut down when it becomes overwhelmed by language demands.
-You may decide to stay silent until you feel ready to speak. That silent period could last for months...

The dark side of speaking a foreign language when it's not as a hobby

More natural phrasing here

But it is also a truthe to say that there is a big diffference between when you have to use it for your daily life (even when are not ready yet) and when you practice it as a hobby.

"it is true to say" is more natural than "it is a truth to say"

Here are some may be not so potentially unpleasant and widely discussed realities of speaking a foreign language for life reasons especially in another country :

And other people show it clearlyclearly show it to you

More natural to put the adverb before the verb

Some people may avoid conversations with you, because ofthey are impatiencet or disuncomfort .able

More natural to describe emotions as something actively experienced by someone.

And it could affects your personal and professional relationships.

( The corporate life at the office can sometimes could be like a rugby football match)

HThere should be a final encouraging phrase here but frankly speaking I have no one ( please see my p.3 from the list )

"no one" here reads as "no people", so better to use "none"

Some words do describe things that are done “even when you are not ready” are spontaneous, impromptu, unrehearsed. I feel like that’s what you’re trying to say here.
