>>508553930>I won't say it's easy, you still have to look OK, have decent social skills, etcI dunno, I've known some very obnoxious, prickish, honestly kind of ugly looking guys who still managed to get fairly decent-looking Japanese girlfriends, and not because they were pickup artists, either. It's a different world here. I've never dated in Japan because I was married before I came here, but from what I can see it's definitely not a total myth that a 4/10 white guy can do well here.
> there are definitely still plenty of women who don't want to date a foreignerThis part's definitely true, though, in fact it's the large majority of them from what I understand. Single Japanese girls who are into foreigners will still outnumber you many times over, however, which is part of why I think the above is true.
>it's just not in the cards with the career I've built etc.Understandable. The pay here is fucking abysmal, and if I were only making money off Japanese business, I would be considering going back, which is saying a lot because I love it here and hated where I lived in the US.
