Will this hurt my chances? Did you go alone, or with a significant other?

I went alone, but there was 1 married couple in my prefecture. I don't think it hurts your chances, but you should think about what your non-JET spouse will be doing day in and day out, especially if they don't speak Japanese. They will not know anyone there, can't even watch TV because it's in Japanese, so the spouse can get bored pretty quickly while you spend your days at work... In the couple I mentioned, she started working at a private English school to have something to do.
