>Well, the most important thing is communication. If you can both understand each other, that's the biggest hurdle out of the way.

The problem is those 2 things are rare to occur in a foreigner & japanese relationship and when they do it's usually bc the japanese person spent time living abroad and is proficient at english. A japanese person who's never left japan is not going to be so understanding and probably unable to communicate effectively to a foreigner.

>Differences in cultures are to be expected
Of course but some cultures just have massive differences with each other that make them incompatible. For example i'm pretty sure most coming from a western country aren't going to feel comfortable when their japanese gf starts pressuring them for marriage very early on in the relationship.
