German Headache

>that feel when an Americunt trying to teach myself German
>find out German grammar is fucking crazy and don't even know what the fuck is going on with these "genders" and other shit
>the language actually has no way of identifying or using these grammar rules and it takes shear memorization to know this
>German is supposed to be one of the easiest languages to learn from English

I don't even fucking know what's going on with the grammar here. Give me some tips German speakers, or a better way of efficiently learning the grammar.
I'm dedicated as fuck to learning this language but this grammar is mindfucking me, and I would like a rough estimate of how long this is going to take for an English speaker to learn German.

Me and my bro are learning separately and when together we'll practice some more, I have a bro who speaks it to an extent already so once I reach the point of forming sentences then it'll be good for learning it.

I'm a native German Speaker... you should try simple sentences first.

Like "Das Fenster ist offen" (The Window is open).

That Genderthing even confuses German ppl sometimes, it's all about knowing.

German is relatively easy considering how similar to english it is

Don't change these.
