Thanks alot Nyororin and jasonbvr
You have answered alot of things I was curious about. And trust me, I am not like one of those guys you describe, nor would I get involved with a girl like that. If I got into a realationship with a Japanese girl it wouldn't just be because she's Japanese, it would be because of the type of girl she is (personality etc) Likewise I would expect a girl to like me for the guy I am, not just like me for being a foreigner.
Also I have a few more questions.
How many foreigners do you encounter on a daily basis? And of what nationality are they usually?
Also do you have alot of foreign friends? (and do they speak Japanese?)
Which do you think is the best city to start off in? Or live and work in once you're settled?
I also read you can get free Japanese classes once you're there. I think that would help alot (even if I spoke abit of Japanese once I get there)
Concerning jobs. This might sound weird, but would someone turn me down for a job just because of me being a foreigner? (even if I speak/read/write fluent Japanese?) Have either of you ever experienced this?
