Japan will always be there. You'll have many opportunities to go there later in life. If you really love your girlfriend, and you think that you might love her for a while, then I wouldn't give that up so easily.

I disagree with this. If you have a future with each other, and TRULY love each other, then waiting one year for you to live your dream is a small favour to ask. If I truly loved a girl, and her dream was to do something, I would not in anyway stand in her way. A person who is in love with you, would not ask that of you.

Not to mention, the opportunity to go and study in Japan is not something you can do everyday. Japan will always be there, aye. But the opportunity to study there, wouldn't. Later in life you have too many responsibilities. You won't have the time.

Love is everlasting. Love will still be there after a year. Dreams can dissipate in under an hour.
