Nah dude you got it wrong I can use chopsticks very well, I can pick up rice, noodles, etc with them. But I see my Asian friends doing strange things like moving the bowl to their mouth, taking giant mouthfuls of noodles, maybe I'm too "Americanized".
Maybe I'm not Asian enough or something, but I just lower my face closer to the plate/bowl and guide the rice to my mouth from there. It's rare I pick up my dish unless it's soup. But eating large bites is fairly standard. Just do whatever you feel comfortable with and enjoy the food. It's not that serious to be uncomfortable.
