Oh, dating in Japan... The amounts of "I loved our time together, let's meet again" followed by ghost silence either speak of a cultural trace or I am severely lacking in dating skills haha! For obvious reasons, I am hoping it is cultural and I will grapple your article as proof :)
Is there a strong dialect difference between people in Tokyo and the rural town you mentioned? Just curious. This was an entertaining read. Thanks for sharing!
Yeah even with friendship! I had a few guy friends who, after a while, I came to realize liked me because I was "foreign" and not because of me as a person.
Shawn I love your stories ! This was great . Thanks for sharing .

There is! My Tokyo boss came up to Aomori to assist me with a legal matter and couldn't understand a word the local police were saying.
Great story!
I hear foreign ladies have it even worse with Japanese guys.
