One shit is ok, one fuck is ok. The abuse of these words doesn't make sense to me.

English is my second language and even I could use other words to express a similar sentiment.

Separate observation but in my experience people who speak English as a second language tend to speak much more properly, and use curse words much less than native speakers.

Personal experience here. I've observed that non-native english speakers say "shit" more often than the equivalent word in their own language.
