Not to mention that plenty of people learn German without touching grammar - especially immigrants immersed in the language. They might learn German badly, but at the same time it's kind of the most natural way of learning a foreign language, one that's been practiced as long as languages have existed.

...Anyway, just a different perspective.
I have many problems, instant gratification is only one of them. Anyway, I want to learn grammar because it may actually make learning the language easier for me, especially since I can't get over to Germany to immerse myself in the language. In a way it's a double edge sword because I want to learn grammar, but it frustrates me, I think I have to find a way to make it fun and interesting.
