I thought it would be a LOT harder than what most people seem to be saying... what about the language barrier? Japanese with self respect? Well maybe self respect is the wrong phrase to use... but maybe caution?

Honestly I think it's both a lot easier AND a lot harder.
People tend to have very different and unfounded ideas and curiosities and past experiences relating to foreigners.
Of my gf's friends, some are seriously so NOT into foreigners that they even felt it strange that she is with me. Others are wildly jealous of her. Some simply have no clue and are just inquisitive.
Many others had all these wild misconceptions about what it meant or would be like to have a foreign bf, some really ridiculous shit too.
One of her friends expected that I'd want to be a stay-at-home-dad asap and stop working to leave the salarywoman responsibility to my gf..
In other words, most people simply don't know.
They think we are sex gods, or they think we have soft penises, they think we do all the housework, they think we talk to much, they think we stink, they think we know zero Japanese, or they think we are obviously fluent, they think we are in the military or that we are violent and love to show off muscles, they think so many things and most of all they think nothing or just don't care.
When it comes to one night stands, it's easy for Japanese men too lol, not just westerners, but I definitely had more luck than my friends when I first got here
including not getting chlamydia like he did lol ><
