>>46223354I was under the impression that foreign dudes can't make friends or date in Japan unless they're really lucky or really fluent and even then the Japanese tend to be weirded out. Then again I've also heard in some places they love foreigners, especially if they can speak to them in Japanese, and that JP girls can be very open to dating foreign dudes under the right circumstances. Always one or the other. Makes me anxious about what to expect. I'd settle for the middle, honestly. I want to make a couple friends when I go there and maybe date a girl or two but I also want to respect that I AM going in there as a foreigner for work.
