Like this guy Rudy from Chalk Zone. He 42 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:20,399 Speaker 1: basically enters this world made of chalk, and he created 43 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 1: he creates a little guy, a little blue guy, and 44 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:29,919 Speaker 1: he make and he talks to it. Do you think 45 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 1: that's like how kids are making like chatbots that are 46 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 1: like little monsters that they can talk to with AI. 47 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 1: Is that similar? 48 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:45,359 Speaker 2: Uh?

Yeah, But then you know, kids get a little 61 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 2: little too ahead of themselves. You know, we'll draw like 62 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 2: the little pictures, and then you know it leads to 63 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 2: parents to get concerned, and that's how horror movies start. 64 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 2: You know. 65 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 1: You texted me and said, I live in America. My 66 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 1: girlfriend wants me to move to Japan to be with her, 67 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 1: but I feel like it's a huge risk to give 68 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: up everything and go. I would like some outside advice 69 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 1: from the wise Gecko man, please sir okay okay, is 70 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 1: your girlfriend Japanese or she just wants to move to Japan. 71 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 2: No, she is one hundred percent Japanese. She was born there. 72 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 2: She's half Japanese and have Spanish, and she wants me 73 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 2: to go over there. Obviously, Like I've already mentioned my age, 74 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:17,160 Speaker 2: I'm thirty years old, she's thirty two. She's going to 75 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 2: turn thirty three in July. And so I basically already 76 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:29,919 Speaker 2: have my life settled here in America. I got a 77 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 2: good job, it's Union, so I make pretty decent money, 78 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:39,920 Speaker 2: pension insurance. I bought a house back in twenty seventeen, 79 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:45,720 Speaker 2: so like my payments are pretty well. But I've tried 80 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:49,359 Speaker 2: convincing her to come live in America with me, but 81 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 2: she doesn't really want to kind of give up her lifestyle, 82 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:56,600 Speaker 2: and she kind of wants me to go over there. 83 00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 2: So I'm kind of like conflicted a little bit. 84 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 1: You know, It's funny, there's there's actually a lot of 85 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 1: there's a lot of like key differences, but something kind 86 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,679 Speaker 1: of exactly similar. I won't go into too much detail 87 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: detail about it, but like something kind of exactly similar 88 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: actually also happened to me where I thought I almost 89 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:28,839 Speaker 1: moved to Japan for similarly reasons. Japan is awesome. Japan 90 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 1: is like a great fucking time. Have you been? I 91 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 1: assume you've been. 92 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 2: I have. I went there for the first time ever 93 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 2: last year to visit her. I was there for two weeks, 94 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 2: and then this past January I was actually staying with 95 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,839 Speaker 2: her for three months, so I got a good little 96 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 2: taste of it, which was which was nice, different way 97 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 2: of life. Obviously, I wasn't really working while I was there. 98 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 2: It was more like kind of studying a little bit, 99 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 2: but very different, very different from America, but a little 100 00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:03,920 Speaker 2: difficult to talk to people because I'm not fluent in 101 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 2: the language. I could barely speak it. So yeah, very 102 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 2: very different. But I loved it. It was it was 103 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:10,600 Speaker 2: absolutely amazing. It was beautiful. 104 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:13,920 Speaker 1: I mean it's great. Yeah. I've spent like four months there, 105 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: not like concurrently, but like over the course of like 106 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 1: a few years, and it's it's fucking sweet. The biggest 107 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:23,720 Speaker 1: problem with it, and one of the big reasons I 108 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 1: decided to not move there, is because like, like you're 109 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:36,239 Speaker 1: totally not supposed to be there. That was my feeling 110 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 1: is like it's a you know, it's not like a 111 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 1: like like one the one of the cool things, like 112 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:43,720 Speaker 1: one of the cool things about America is that, like 113 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 1: you know, we have like diversity, Like there's no like 114 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 1: every like you walk around in like a major American city, 115 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:57,840 Speaker 1: you see every ethnicity of person. But like you know, Tokyo, 116 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 1: it's it's a mono culture. And like if you're not 117 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 1: like a Japanese person, you do really feel it. 118 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's one thing that I like you said, you 119 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 2: really do feel it. When I was there, Like obviously, 120 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 2: like I said, she's half uh Spanish, so she's not 121 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 2: like she doesn't fully look like a Japanese person. You 122 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 2: could tell like she's next with something. But even when 123 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 2: we would go to like restaurants and stuff, like they 124 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 2: would try talking to us in English because they would 125 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 2: see that I was a foreigner and obviously she's not. 126 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 2: She doesn't look like fully Japanese and she would have 127 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 2: to like talk to them like oh, like Japanese is 128 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 2: okay basically, and they would like profusely like apologize like oh, 129 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 2: I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, you know, but definitely, yeah, 130 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 2: like here in America, it's very different, Like nobody really 131 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 2: bats an eye at you know, a foreign person, so 132 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 2: to speak. And then over there obviously you know you 133 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 2: do stick out like a sort thumb. 134 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's uh, I mean it's also it's tough. It's 135 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 1: a tough place to be in without speaking the language. 136 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 1: Where are you based currently that you don't want to 137 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 1: move out of? 138 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 2: I'm currently based in Illinois.

That was a really big you know anime. 171 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 2: Wee not like super big, but you know, I liked anime. 172 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,840 Speaker 2: So I figured Japan is pretty safe, It's got very 173 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 2: convenient train systems and relatively cheap compared to America and 174 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 2: a completely different culture. So I was planning to take 175 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:33,319 Speaker 2: the winter off between January to April and go and 176 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:38,840 Speaker 2: stay in Japan. And I tried learning the language, so 177 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 2: I bought a couples like study books, but I wasn't 178 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 2: really too good at like at you know, studying by myself. 179 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 2: So I went on Google. I looked up Japanese you know, tutors, 180 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:57,320 Speaker 2: and it directed me to a prepay like a website. Yeah, 181 00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 2: And basically, like I searched through a whole bunch of 182 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 2: different teachers and I ended up finding her, and you know, 183 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,040 Speaker 2: we kind of got to talking a little bit and 184 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 2: then things just kind of went from there. And that's 185 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,560 Speaker 2: just kind of how we met. I she like we 186 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:17,679 Speaker 2: kind of went half and half on the plane ticket, 187 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 2: but she ended up coming over here back in July. 188 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:23,680 Speaker 2: That was like the first time we met. And then 189 00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,679 Speaker 2: she came over here again in like October, and then 190 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 2: I went over there in November, and then I went 191 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 2: over there again in January, okay, and I'm planning to 192 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 2: go over there again in September. 193 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,920 Speaker 1: Okay. So it's been a so you guys are in 194 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 1: a committed relationship, yeah, yeah, okay, And so it's been 195 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 1: a back and forth thing over the course of how long. 196 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 2: It's been about it's been about soll June right now, 197 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 2: it's been about a little over a years since we 198 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 2: first met, a little like about eleven months since we 199 00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,960 Speaker 2: started dating. We have had like our issue choose every 200 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 2: every here and there because obviously like cultural differences and 201 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 2: a little bit of a language barrier. But for the 202 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 2: most part, like you know, we try our best to 203 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 2: work things out. 204 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 1: What have what have been the issues that you guys 205 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:15,359 Speaker 1: have had to work out? 206 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 2: Uh and uh okay. So basically, like she she's a 207 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 2: freelance worker, so she likes to like and obviously their 208 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 2: culture is a little bit different. So when it comes 209 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 2: to going out and like meeting different people, like staying 210 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 2: out late and drinking and all those other things, like 211 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 2: she does it pretty consistently. She's very She connects a 212 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 2: lot with like a lot of CEOs that are you know, 213 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,319 Speaker 2: business owners and things like that, and she teaches them English, 214 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 2: and obviously like in return, they'll like like they'll go 215 00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 2: out to like nice places to eat or you know, 216 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 2: they'll go golfing things like that. Sometimes she'll also travel 217 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 2: to like other countries and she kind of works as 218 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:10,960 Speaker 2: like a translator of sorts, you know. But in order 219 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 2: to kind of maintain these relationships, Like you know, she'll 220 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 2: occasionally have to go like for with drinks for them, 221 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 2: or like for dinners and things like that. So I'm 222 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 2: a little. 223 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:27,439 Speaker 1: Sense am I sensing? Am I sensing? Like, Oh, you're 224 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:28,720 Speaker 1: a little fraid she'll cheat. 225 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:36,120 Speaker 2: On you a little bit. And it's just very uncomfortable, 226 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 2: you know, because obviously they have like a hierarchy over there. 227 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 2: So like when she goes out, like she has to 228 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 2: pay attention to these people, right, she has to like 229 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 2: connect with them and you know, full undivided attention type things. Okay, 230 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 2: so she doesn't really have time to like be on 231 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 2: her phone because it would be seen as rude and 232 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 2: you're not, you know, not fully attentive. And then like 233 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 2: also once she'll go out to drink and there's like 234 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:08,640 Speaker 2: a big group of them, they can't start leaving until 235 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:12,120 Speaker 2: like the guy with like the highest hierarchy decides it's 236 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 2: like time to go. Yeah, you know. Yeah, So it's 237 00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 2: it's a little bit in part of the cheating thing, 238 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:23,480 Speaker 2: but I've kind of like moved past it. I go 239 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 2: to an actual therapist and we try to like talk 240 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,080 Speaker 2: things through, and like he kind of gives me some tips, 241 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:32,840 Speaker 2: and you know, I've gotten definitely a lot better, but 242 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 2: it still makes me a little bit uncomfortable. So yeah, 243 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 2: those are kind of the issues that that we kind 244 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 2: of run into. 245 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 1: Mmmm okay, okay, interesting has she has?

So it's 337 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:54,639 Speaker 2: just taking a little bit of time kind of to 338 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:57,879 Speaker 2: adjust to it. And obviously I'm stepping out of my 339 00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 2: comfort zone. So it's very very difficult, and I mean, 340 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 2: oh sorry, go ahead, Okay. When I was over there, 341 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 2: she had introduced me to one of her students. He 342 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 2: was a young, really successful business owner, and he had 343 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:23,560 Speaker 2: taken me to a really nice steakhouse. He had taken 344 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:25,960 Speaker 2: me to like a hostess bar where he had met 345 00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 2: his girlfriend, and he essentially paid for everything, and like, 346 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 2: even though we couldn't really speak, we were kind of 347 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 2: like it was like a lot of gestures and stuff 348 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 2: like when we were going out to different bars, when 349 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:42,639 Speaker 2: we were going out to dinner and stuff like that, 350 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 2: because it was me, him and his girlfriend. Like it 351 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 2: was really nice, you know, meeting different people and experiencing 352 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:51,119 Speaker 2: like a different thing than what I'm used to so 353 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:56,680 Speaker 2: I could definitely like get used to that that kind 354 00:20:56,720 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 2: of life. But like I said before, I don't necessarily 355 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:04,240 Speaker 2: really seek it out either. Like, if that happens, it happens. 356 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 1: So let's talk about this. You what you okay, you 357 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 1: live in the suburbs of Illinois. Yes, And what's going 358 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:16,359 Speaker 1: on in the suburbs of Illinois that you do not 359 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:17,240 Speaker 1: want to leave? 360 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 2: Man, It's just I'm very I'm very well set, so 361 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 2: to speak. I mean, like I said, I bought a 362 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:33,120 Speaker 2: house back in twenty seventeen. So my mortgage is I 363 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 2: only owe like one hundred and fifteen thousand, and I've 364 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,239 Speaker 2: already paid off like ten years worth of it. So 365 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:41,200 Speaker 2: that means like my mortgage payment, I have like a 366 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:44,400 Speaker 2: four percent interest rate and I only pay about twelve 367 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 2: hundred dollars a month. You know, like that's essentially unheard 368 00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 2: of for a four bedroom, two and a half bathroom. 369 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:53,360 Speaker 2: It's a townhouse, you know, with a too. 370 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,639 Speaker 1: Why do you know? Well, okay, well pause for a second. 371 00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:59,639 Speaker 1: Wait several several questions, several questions, Yeah, go ahead, Okay, 372 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:01,480 Speaker 1: you're not married and you don't have kids. Why do 373 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:03,320 Speaker 1: you need a four bedroom house? 374 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 2: Well, back when I was twenty years old. My mom 375 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:12,480 Speaker 2: had essentially got in a settlement because she ended up 376 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 2: getting herd at work. And at the time we were, 377 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 2: we weren't in the best situation where she was. We 378 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:24,080 Speaker 2: were living in like it was me, her and my brother. 379 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 2: We were living in a two bedroom apartments. And when 380 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 2: she got the settlement money, I had a pretty decent job, 381 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:31,919 Speaker 2: I had a good credit score, So she ended up 382 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,880 Speaker 2: like gifting me the money and we bought a townhouse. Now, 383 00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 2: if she were to come over here, obviously I saw 384 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,399 Speaker 2: the townhouse. We'd have extra money and then we can 385 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 2: get a place of our own, and then my mom, 386 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:43,240 Speaker 2: you know, my brother can kind of go live with 387 00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:47,479 Speaker 2: my sisters or something. But like, right now, I got 388 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:50,400 Speaker 2: a pretty decent house. Like I got a really good 389 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 2: paying job, really good insurance, and it's I would love 390 00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 2: to leave, but like I would like to stay here 391 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:05,000 Speaker 2: for like a couple more years, but she's not really 392 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:08,680 Speaker 2: willing to come to America for for a long time. 393 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 1: Your girlfriend sounds like the kind of you know, it's funny, Yeah, 394 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 1: your girlfriend sounds like the kind of person who would 395 00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 1: kill herself if she had to live in the suburbs 396 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 1: of Illinois and then you sound like the kind of 397 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:27,360 Speaker 1: person that does not just up and move to Japan 398 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 1: on a whim. 399 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, so that's kind of where we're Yeah, that's that's 400 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:36,359 Speaker 2: kind of the easty man. 401 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 1: I mean, what's this? 402 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:38,280 Speaker 2: What's this? 403 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 1: What's this job? 404 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 2: I don't want to get too too personal. 405 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 1: But I don't have to get the person. But what's 406 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:47,359 Speaker 1: I mean, what like, what is it just like some 407 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:48,400 Speaker 1: office thing? 408 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 2: No, no, no, it's I guess I can kind of 409 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:55,119 Speaker 2: mention it without giving up the whole name. It's a 410 00:23:55,440 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 2: it's a garbage company. It's and like I said, it's 411 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:05,480 Speaker 2: not too far from my house, so it's very convenient. 412 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 2: And like I said, it pays pretty well. I work. 413 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:12,640 Speaker 2: I do work a lot of overtime. But like I said, 414 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:14,640 Speaker 2: one of the benefits of it is that I'm able 415 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:18,159 Speaker 2: to travel. I'm able to take the winter off and 416 00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:21,919 Speaker 2: I can travel for three months every winter, you know. 417 00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:25,960 Speaker 2: So that's how I had stayed over there. 418 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:30,720 Speaker 1: Okay, And as an in person gig. 419 00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:34,919 Speaker 2: It is in person I drive a like class B 420 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:36,080 Speaker 2: CDL truck. 421 00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,080 Speaker 1: Also, what's the plan if you moved to Japan? 422 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 2: Right? Like? 423 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:42,240 Speaker 1: What can you even get a job? Like you know, 424 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 1: like a visa, like have you looked into like, because 425 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:45,920 Speaker 1: there's a ton of shit you have to do. 426 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:51,840 Speaker 2: Yeah. So there's a few pathways that her and I 427 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,440 Speaker 2: have kind of considered. A first off, the first of 428 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 2: all was marriage, but because of the issues that we had, 429 00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 2: we kind of decided to postpone for a little bit. 430 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:05,480 Speaker 2: So the second pathway was essentially me applying for a 431 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:11,360 Speaker 2: language school. It's gonna cost around like ten thousand dollars 432 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 2: for the year, and but once that language school is done, 433 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 2: we would either have to decide whether to get married 434 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 2: or I would have to come back to America. I 435 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 2: am currently like trying to study to get a software 436 00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:31,160 Speaker 2: engineering degree, so I could potentially find a like remote 437 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 2: job and then obviously go to the language school, so 438 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 2: I can kind of work as a software engineer, as 439 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 2: you know, for a Japanese based company, or. 440 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 1: I mean for a Japanese based either you say for 441 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:46,200 Speaker 1: a US company, because that would be like a I 442 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 1: mean that's like the cheat code for doing shit. 443 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:52,639 Speaker 2: Well well yeah, but like like yeah, get paid in 444 00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:56,480 Speaker 2: an American currency, but like having the skill to be 445 00:25:56,520 --> 00:26:00,439 Speaker 2: able to use like the Japanese language and like English 446 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 2: language as well. So Okay, that's kind of like the 447 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:04,959 Speaker 2: secondary planned. 448 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:09,359 Speaker 1: Okay, okay, but I'm no, I'm glad we talked about it. 449 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:13,719 Speaker 1: But this doesn't sound like a logistical thing. This is 450 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:18,359 Speaker 1: like this is more of an emotional thing. This is 451 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:24,840 Speaker 1: more of like a guttural thing. Do you want to 452 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:26,359 Speaker 1: have kids with this woman? Do you want to like 453 00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 1: build a whole life together? Is that the plan? 454 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 3: Ah? 455 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:32,200 Speaker 2: See, I would love to. I would love to.

Like in order for it 479 00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 1: to like these things, they they they require these really 480 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:09,000 Speaker 1: scary like leaps of faith. Right Like if you were 481 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:14,080 Speaker 1: just like dating a lady in Illinois, like who lived 482 00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 1: in this fucking city and you lived in the suburbs 483 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:20,800 Speaker 1: and your distance was an hour away, it's like, okay, 484 00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 1: we can like slowly build our relationship and figure out 485 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 1: these problems and stuff.

I think, you know, 500 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:19,600 Speaker 1: because love is love love love love doesn't really take anything. 501 00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 1: You can love like you can love someone you don't 502 00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:25,080 Speaker 1: have to be in the same room with them. Like 503 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:32,320 Speaker 1: love is easy. You know. Commitment is difficult, Uh, logistics 504 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 1: are difficult.

A, I mean that's 506 00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 1: the easy one.

And so 520 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 1: you should ask yourself, like what your gut is saying 521 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 1: to you and what you can give full body yes? 522 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:50,840 Speaker 1: Like like go like, ask yourself several questions and figure 523 00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 1: out which of these questions am I giving a full 524 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 1: body yes?

Yeah, No, 646 00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:01,560 Speaker 1: this lady is a genius because you got to pick 647 00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:05,080 Speaker 1: your But I also I really feel like in a relationship, 648 00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:07,880 Speaker 1: you have to pick your battles. I believe that deeply, 649 00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:11,200 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. That's that's why I side 650 00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:13,400 Speaker 1: with her on that. I believe in a relationship you 651 00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 1: must pick your battles, like every like, because there's little 652 00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:22,319 Speaker 1: things that, like everyone's gonna have, like the naps thing, right, 653 00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:24,759 Speaker 1: Like everyone's gonna have little things that pissed each each 654 00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:25,520 Speaker 1: other off by each other. 655 00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:26,200 Speaker 2: But like. 656 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:29,879 Speaker 1: You should should I think in a relationship, you should 657 00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:37,080 Speaker 1: strategically pick your battles as to what is a big 658 00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:40,000 Speaker 1: deal for you, do you know what I mean. That's 659 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:41,200 Speaker 1: why I'm on her side with that. 660 00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I've definitely gotten a lot better at it. Like, 661 00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:48,480 Speaker 2: if there's something small that would bother me, like I 662 00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:50,799 Speaker 2: just kind of like water up a ducks back, I 663 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:53,040 Speaker 2: just kind of like let it go. If it's something 664 00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:54,919 Speaker 2: a little bit bigger, you know, I'll try to bring 665 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:58,800 Speaker 2: it up. But besides that, like we've kind of moved 666 00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:01,600 Speaker 2: past it. There is a little bit of a language 667 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:04,640 Speaker 2: barrier obviously when it came to us communicating like those 668 00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:08,880 Speaker 2: issues before. But I've kind of learned to simplify my 669 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:12,480 Speaker 2: wording a little bit, and you know, it kind of 670 00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:16,040 Speaker 2: makes things a little bit easier because obviously she knows 671 00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:18,720 Speaker 2: more English than I know Japanese, so we mainly speak 672 00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:20,799 Speaker 2: in English, so I kind of have to tone it 673 00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:24,319 Speaker 2: down a little bit. So when it comes to those things, 674 00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:29,040 Speaker 2: I have gotten definitely gotten a lot better. And but 675 00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:31,600 Speaker 2: like like I said, the only other thing is just 676 00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:34,520 Speaker 2: like her her lifestyle that she that she lives, which 677 00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:37,800 Speaker 2: you know, it's like I said, it's it's a little 678 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:41,839 Speaker 2: difficult for me, but I'm like, I'm trying my best 679 00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:42,879 Speaker 2: to kind of be okay with it. 680 00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:46,120 Speaker 1: You know, It's an interesting thing when you're dating someone 681 00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:51,080 Speaker 1: who English is not their native language, is you have 682 00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:58,560 Speaker 1: this thing of like little nuance, Like you're more likely, 683 00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:03,200 Speaker 1: I feel like, to be taken at complete face value 684 00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:10,520 Speaker 1: in everything that you say. Like little nuances are not 685 00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:14,960 Speaker 1: they don't come across as much, and that depending on 686 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:19,080 Speaker 1: who you are and like kind of the situation, there 687 00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:25,080 Speaker 1: are pros to that and cons to that. Yeah, you 688 00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:27,280 Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like, like for example, if you like, 689 00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:31,439 Speaker 1: like if you're tired and you say I'm tired, it's 690 00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:34,560 Speaker 1: pretty like you know, if it's not like, oh, if 691 00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:37,520 Speaker 1: you say I'm tired in like a slightly bitchy way, 692 00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:41,279 Speaker 1: that that that like that you'll that she'll interpret it 693 00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:45,319 Speaker 1: as like you're trying to like you mean something, and 694 00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:47,800 Speaker 1: like it's more likely you'll be taking a face value 695 00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:51,520 Speaker 1: and like there's something kind of nice about that. But 696 00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:53,799 Speaker 1: then the flip side of it is like when you 697 00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:59,400 Speaker 1: do want to communicate in in these like nuanced ways, 698 00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:00,680 Speaker 1: it is a a little trickier. 699 00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:05,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's that. That is something that it took a 700 00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:08,680 Speaker 2: little bit of adjusting because sometimes she would like say 701 00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:11,799 Speaker 2: things and the way she would say them would come 702 00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:14,319 Speaker 2: kind of come off a little harsh, and she was like, oh, 703 00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:16,360 Speaker 2: like I didn't I didn't mean it like that, but 704 00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:19,800 Speaker 2: like for me, for us, like the way that she 705 00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:22,200 Speaker 2: would say it was like very direct, you know, and 706 00:40:22,239 --> 00:40:23,960 Speaker 2: I was just kind of like taken aback by it. 707 00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:27,680 Speaker 2: I was, yeah, of course, it's just a little here 708 00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:27,960 Speaker 2: and there. 709 00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:29,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, of course. But you get you kind of get 710 00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:31,160 Speaker 1: used to that because you you have to.

Like I like in 808 00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:01,279 Speaker 2: my relationships in the past, like I would not go 809 00:46:01,320 --> 00:46:04,480 Speaker 2: out with another woman for work or for fun, you know, 810 00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:07,560 Speaker 2: just to go drink and have karaoke with out of 811 00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:10,960 Speaker 2: respect for my partner, you know, So for her to 812 00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:12,480 Speaker 2: do something like this, oh. 813 00:46:12,320 --> 00:46:14,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, Yeah that makes yeah, yes, yes, yes, 814 00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:17,600 Speaker 1: that makes sense. Yeah you would not, Yes, that makes 815 00:46:17,719 --> 00:46:19,880 Speaker 1: I give what you said. Like, yes, in America, like 816 00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:22,839 Speaker 1: if if you had like a female I totally give 817 00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:25,279 Speaker 1: you a minute. If you had a female coworker just 818 00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:28,799 Speaker 1: be like or a female boss, just be like, hey, 819 00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:34,360 Speaker 1: let's just you and me get uh drinks after work 820 00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:38,120 Speaker 1: and do karaoke together, and you went, your wife would 821 00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:42,000 Speaker 1: totally be like what the fuck? And yes, it's different, 822 00:46:42,719 --> 00:46:45,120 Speaker 1: but it's a weird. Yeah, it's a weird. There's like 823 00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:49,560 Speaker 1: a culturally thing there where it's like doing that as 824 00:46:49,640 --> 00:46:51,080 Speaker 1: like part of working. 825 00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:55,720 Speaker 2: Right. So that's the struggle that I've been trying to overcome, 826 00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:59,440 Speaker 2: is just the cultural aspect of different relationships where she 827 00:46:59,600 --> 00:47:01,759 Speaker 2: sees it as just these are just my friends and 828 00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:04,560 Speaker 2: this is like business, where I see it as like, 829 00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:07,879 Speaker 2: you know, in America, you don't necessarily do that if 830 00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:11,360 Speaker 2: you come home late from drinking with like a person 831 00:47:11,360 --> 00:47:13,319 Speaker 2: of the opposite sex and you're home at like three 832 00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:17,840 Speaker 2: o'clock in the morning. That's you know, grounds for questioning 833 00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:19,200 Speaker 2: like what the fuck, like why are you coming home 834 00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:22,799 Speaker 2: so late? You know. So that's that's the issue that 835 00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:24,799 Speaker 2: I've been trying to kind of like work through and 836 00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:29,520 Speaker 2: overcome obviously because I don't I'm not. I try my best, 837 00:47:29,600 --> 00:47:32,080 Speaker 2: like could not be controlling because she's her own person, 838 00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:35,520 Speaker 2: she lives her own life. It's just like trying to 839 00:47:35,680 --> 00:47:39,720 Speaker 2: overcome myself in these thoughts that I have when she's 840 00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:44,000 Speaker 2: out either on trips or you know, on late nights. 841 00:47:44,360 --> 00:47:46,239 Speaker 1: Well, listen, we'll wrap this up in a second, but 842 00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:50,799 Speaker 1: I'll just say from where I sit, it's kind of 843 00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:54,920 Speaker 1: as simple as like, if you if you feel really 844 00:47:55,239 --> 00:48:00,319 Speaker 1: gutturally aligned, and if you feel like if you've feel 845 00:48:00,400 --> 00:48:06,480 Speaker 1: gutturally aligned with this lady in all of the aspects 846 00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:09,840 Speaker 1: that are like actually important, not like the fucking naps 847 00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:11,760 Speaker 1: or the house or whatever.
