"wherever my main PC set up is, that's home" that's the most gamer thing i've ever heard I love it
I sort of agree. Student accommodation doesn't feel like home even with a pc tho. It's like a hybrid home/temporay residence rather than a full home

The hardest part about dating in Japan is the lack of subtitles
@fck peace well, Japan is kinda similar to that other island GB, pretty inbred.

@fck peace Welp
They hawt
Im Indian so we got hawties here as well
@fck peace me a racist: THEY ALL LOOK THE SAME
Connor: Dating in Japan is easy
Also Connor: I've rented a girlfriend
Also also Connor: Now I've rented a boyfriend
Connor one more time: This time I've just rented a family

Connor, Once Again: "I went on a date in Los Angeles, with a Eldritch Horror's Boyfriend."
Japanese see marriages and relationships as an economical contract. The love aspect is not there for them.
Love which is normally an abstract concept, is made commercially and tangible in Japan in the form of superficial ads, cliché valentine tropes and things they "think" is love.
So for Western men and women, I advise not to seek a relationship in Japan or Asia.
Culture and Western philosophy vs Eastern philosophy is too important of a factor to ignore. You will end up miserable down the line, wondering why your Japanese wife/husband never speaks up their mind and lets their frustration get to boiling point(scary in Japan).
It's like talking to a wall instead of your partner. The Japanese/Asian man are taught to see women as objects of sexual desire and housewives.
They are emotionally detached from the social aspect of adulthood, which makes raising potential kids very difficult for them.
Asian men also often suffer from an identity crisis, getting angry/frustrated/confused with themselves. Thats why you see Asian men adopting other peoples culture in the craziest way.
In conclusion, take culture and history into consideration before you decide to pursue your yellow fever/fetish
It's a cry out 😆 🤣
I’ve travelled to Japan multiple times. I made a very good friend, probably was 40-50 years my senior and didn’t speak a word of English. He helped me with the bus and showed me the Godzilla theatre because my backpack had dinosaurs on it. Absolute Legend, I miss my Japanese dad.
Edit: For anyone interested.. I just uploaded a shorts video of what happened… video is trash but still was an experience I wouldn’t forget..
Hope you're feeling better!
easy to say when you speak fluently the language
I thought this was gonna end in a " and then he fingered me" joke.
@@natebeal18 the dream.
Connor's just wholesome talking the whole time about how he’s the happiest right now. Makes me happy too.

I thought he was referencing PewDiePoe haha
Sometimes I forget that Connor is just such a grounded person
These are not the droids you are looking for 🖐🤨
For someone who makes 20K a month it's probably very surprising
To avoid static?

@@trumpeter811 he makes wayyy more. maybe 60k
I think Connor is very impressive. He gives the vibe of a guy who has found 'his people' as an adult and because of them and his good heart, is continuing to grow into a really kind man.
Dude is like 1.5 years younger than me, weird as hell seeing people say "as an adult" in reference to Connor... My man (and me) has just _barely_ entered the "adult world". He's killing it for sure though.
@@NewbPhil Yeah, it's not your typical and standard young adult. He is definitely a lucky person
I love how this was titled "dating in japan" and ended up covering literally every other topic. Chefs kiss. Completely on brand lol.
Considering the amount of boyfriends this dude has. I hardly think he has any problems
Yeah, this dude has a harem of guys, not many can accomplish that. Getting a lass might not be that big an issue for him if he actually tried to get one.
Cum!
At this point any person man or woman that interacts with him is now part of the fantasy harem
Has he kissed Ludwig yet?

Aye aye
I remember going to Connor's very first AX meetup, 5 or 6 years ago. There were like, 10 of us, outside of the building by the bushes, standing around awkwardly with him. I took some vids with him and got a plush ciel signed. I check in a few years later, and he has his own panel in a main hall of AX, and someone I met at that first meetup texts me out of the blue about how she's so proud of him, but she's sad she can't actually talk to him at the cons anymore. Still. We were both here then, and we are both here now, and we couldn't be more excited for Connor.
(Also, he signed the plush right across its face for some reason? And I'll never get over that. It was funny, but I remember being kind of baffled, cus it was one of my only plushes and a gift from my best friend, and he wasn't that big a creator then, and hed just put lettering across poor ciels face. I still have it tho, and I guess he's made up for it by making his signature that much cooler to have.)
Wow that’s so sweet and cool
lmao that’s awesome
omg lol ... that would be about the worst thing a person could do to me ... i think i'd burst out crying on the spot and traumatize the poor guy. no no lol no defacing the stuffed frens. i'm going to pretend your true story is fiction. It'll help me get on better with my day *nods*
@@dearydarling Sadly, it's not. Tho i dont think i have any way to prove it unless his signature has changed since then, or people believe that I got it signed the same day I took the vids. Cus i posted the vids that day, so I have evidence of meeting him then. I've always wanted to call him out for it as a joke one day, because the memory stuck with me, but idk if he even has TTS or anyway viewers can interact with him on streams.
@@dipperdawn I promise i really do believe you hehe i was just joking ... you know lol pretend it didn't happen lol so i don't have to think about the poor stuffed fren ... well at least Connor's a sweetheart lol. If stuffed fren has to have a name scrawled on its face it's at least a goodun :)
As a Japanese person living in the US - I can definitely relate with feeling more proud and appreciative of your home culture when you're outside of it. I think it definitely grounds you and gives you better perspective by getting away from the midst of it.
i have better respect of japanese outside japan than the ones who still lives in their isolated rock, pathetically stuck in their culture
It's no secret that this man has a harem of people of all various differences, yet Connor gets down to earth with us, what a guy.
Man was made to entertain.
yes
Is Ironmouse mad or jealous?
It's easy to bag a girl as a westerner in Japan but having a long term relationship is a whole other story 💀
That is every foreign country though. Very difficult to have a real relationship if you don't speak their language fluently. Even in countries with better English most don't want to be forced to constantly speak it.
Yes 100% I lived in Japan 13-24 and I'm hafu + slim thick (french mixed w green eyes). Japanese ppl tend to love hafus but I don't act like a stereotypical Japanese woman and I've had ppl admit to dating me because they wanted to "try out" a hafu or a girl with curves but they can't handle me long term because Im not shy, demure, reserved, super girly, and quiet.
It felt like I was always the problem, but it was ppl who thought i was hot but not worthy of a serious relationship for super shallow or dumb reasons like dyed hair, tattoos, being loud, egirl/vamp fashion and Otaku.
My husband is Japanese Mexican and it's nice to be with someone who understands my mindset being Hafu and encourages me being me even if that's a loud nerdy otaku who cusses a lot.
I see that as an absolute win :(
I have heard the opposite really. They are all up for marrying you and not in for the short term.
@fck peace why are you spamming that?
Hey Connor, I’m going through a really uncertain period of my life right now where I’m moving to another country but running into so many issues that I don’t even really know where I’ll be living next week but hearing about the struggles people like you and Chris have gone through while moving to another country, pushing yourself out of your comfort zone etc. has been really encouraging, so thanks for sharing your journey with us!
I love how straightforward and fast u are with these check-in videos. You care abt sharing information, not dallying for views. Love it :)

Dating, like anything, is something that must be practiced in order for one to get good at it. There's no exact technique, but a surefire way to at least break the ice is as follows"
1. Learn how to make direct eye contact comfortably
2. Have a good, firm handshake
3. Shake the other's hand at least 2 times without letting go but without being too tight
4. Take the person whose arm you are shaking over your shoulder
5. Flip the other person over your shoulder
6. Stand on top of their body with your arms stretched out in victory
7. Reclaim your title as champion of the Thunder Dome
Lmao

Well sh*t, that was funny.
You could've said "to assert dominance" and it would've been funnier
Never let them know your next move. 😎
Glad to hear you’re the happiest you’ve ever been! Honestly, I think it comes across in all your content and it feels like you hit your stride in what you want to do in all your channels. Cant wait to see what you do next!
Bro ngl I kinda teared up when he mentioned the charity event! This dude right here got a heart of gold and I m always so happy to see him grow and do what he enjoys to doing! Never change and keep up the great work we are all here for it!💜
Connor : talking about dating.
93% : I am listening
what if the 93% were the friends we made along the way?
@Canyon this is definitely the video about when you met cdawgva
@Canyon that is definitely the video about when you met cdawgva

Rainhoe: furiously taking notes.
100% agreed about the whole conversing in Japanese point. When I first learned Japanese, it was at a language school in Tokyo. The fact that you learn your lessons during the day, and can apply it immediately in the real world after you leave the school is so helpful. It's kinda like doing involuntary homework.
"I think I'm the happiest than I've ever been " ✨ Its wierd when you don't know the person personally and yet something like this genuinely make you happy for them from the bottom of your heart and bring a smile on their face. Maybe this is something that I rarely hear from people nowadays about life and I wish can say that as well.✨❤️
I'm from Norway. And yes, I basically lived through the early stages, all the way into the midle stage of the pandemic, without really noticing any huge changes to my everyday life. That was pretty cool. But it was fucking infuriating having to listen to some people who couldn't grasp the seriousness of the situation, as they complained about trivial stuff that really didn't matter. Apparently unable to see what was going on around them. We're pretty lucky here, but at times we need to be humbled. Thanks Connor, appreciate the call out.
I heard Norwegians are depressed people, because it gets dark and gloomy very early there. With all the snow and lack of sunshine, I can understand. Thats why you Scandinavians often seek out alchohol to ignore the harsh realities of your lives. I think Europe as a whole could learn from Americans to be more socially in-tune with life. Less woody/cold behaviour, no crossed arms.
@@xPhantomxify As a Norwegian i don't think we are depressed people, we like our personal space, we like to party with friends but we don't seek out alcohol, we like our lives with free healthcare, good paying jobs and great education, we are accepting toward people of all races including them in everything treating everyone with respect and learning from everyone, accepting of the LGBTQ+ community, we have parades during pride month putting up their flag, they have their own space in the parade on our national day. Instead of rioting and destroying stuff for every little thing, we have civilized people who knows better. The police is more educated than what I have seen from the ones in America, we DON'T need guns there are strict laws and a long process just to even get a gun, and if u misuse it even once you will never hold one ever again, honestly, from every video and news reports, and everything i have heard and seen makes me HOPE that we never learn anything from America, and it makes me never wanna go there because just the thought of going there makes me scared for my life. It is mostly dark in winter but in summer it's almost never dark. I am sorry if I seem disrespectful i just want to protect the name of our country, we aren't depressed or gloomy people because it gets dark faster and longer in winter if anything we enjoy it because it gets peaceful, because after summer/fall/spring it's nice to have a little darker skies, it makes it easy to the the stars and northern lights and yes while we complain about the dark and it's cold and we would like a little warmer summers and it's too warm, we appreciate our lives and this country, because it's what I feel a 'safe place' to be. Again i am sorry if I'm being disrespectful.
your growth these last couple years is one of the most impressive in the whole creatorsphere, so proud of how far you've come connor, can't wait to see what you do next
It`s kind of insane that how Trash Taste has evolved into such a big thing
The dick riding is tremendous
Can you imagine the amount of changes people see if they're just a CDawgVA channel fan and don't watch streams, Trash Taste and ConnorDawg content? It must've been a crazy couple of years seeing the amount of changes from their perspective
As someone who's been enjoying his content for many years before he blew up on twitch and was part of trash taste, it has been WILD AF. I'm so happy for him !
It's made me pretty envious, and made wish I could be brave enough to be a content creator
@@zephyrelizabeth965 use it to inspire you^-^
i’ve been watching this channel for years. it’s amazing to look back and watch how i evolved with him. i’m so proud of you Connor!!! :) thank you for all that you do
Thank you so much for this detailed video, and it's also really nice to have this kind of update, even for fresh people that have found the channel only recently and want to know more of you better! Also really appreciate how well meaning and open you are with talking of things like charity and giving back and taking yourself not too seriously compared to other recent cases (Kyouka) where the person just knows no end to exploit others. My own situation is a bit different here (still in Europe but in a foreign country), and my heart sunk hearing about the difficulty of making local friends and learning the language, the struggle is genuinely real. I hope you'll be able to make many many more Japanese friends, and many good friends overall regardless of nationality. Much respect for all that biking, keep the good job up and continue to enjoy and do what you love doing 💫
Connor is literally one of my favorite youtubers of all time, he's hilarious and does dumb shit now and again, but is also very respectful, kind and wholesome, he deserves all his success!
I cannot agree more. He is the kind of person I aspire to be. He is very confident, very funny and entertaining; even chaotic sometimes (all on purpose), but clearly knows exactly what he's doing to draw in and hook an audience. Yet all without acting like 'the big shot'.
He is very humble about his own stuff, very chill and down to earth, but at the same time he is a chad friend and a big support (or even just an inspiration) to so many others. He very clearly respects a lot of other creators, big and small, each in all kinds of different 'genres' if you will. And befriends almost all of them in his interactions with them. And that is what I like about him most. He seems to care more about how they are doing then himself. And I admire that aspect.
no he didn't. he disgust us of japan.
I’ve only recently stumbled across his channel but I’m loving his personality, the hilarious editing, and the goofy video ideas. I’m already a huge fan, and I totally agree that he deserves all the success and more!
The only thing hard about dating in Japan is you have to plan your dates around when their kids are at school or visiting their father.

Me a Norwegian thinking we had it pretty good, and then Connar says "except for that one Norwegian that's so happy"
Literally same😂
I was like "What?, what about the Danes?". But yeah, we have it pretty good up here.

About the question on how to break the ice with new people:
One thing I notice Connor does when meeting new people is immediately asking them about how they want to be addressed (gamer tag, real name, nickname, whatever). And I think that's a great way to make someone feel more comfortable by showing that you're genuinely interested in talking to them. It also helps to get over that awkward moment when you first meet strangers and don't know what to talk about. Maybe something in their name comes from an activity that's interesting to talk about.
Obviously this works a lot better for online connections but I'm sure something along those lines can work offline as well.
feels a bit odd tbh. hobbies are better.
This might be a weird take, but I honestly feel like the cycling video should go up here, on the main channel when it's finally ready. Like, it's such a MASSIVE project that it feels like the same amount of effort of a main channel video, plus the style itself fits the "out and about in japan" kind of format. Just doesn't really feel like 2nd channel material at that point.
Plus, I think it could be a really great way to try and unite the two worlds Connor finds himself between; using high level twitch content for his main channel fan base. idk, food for thought.
We're really happy for you and the fact that you are content and happy in your life. Thank you for all the fun!

Seeing connors growth and development overall is very inspiring for me somehow, it's like i can do it too just like connor did
All I want to say, is good job Connor. You the man. I really don't know what else to say.
I physically got whiplash when Connor said he was living in Japan for 3 years. I'VE WATCHED HIM MOVED AND IT FEELS LIKE LAST YEAR
Aw Connor this was very wholesome. I've been watching you for years now and I love seeing you become so successful and still keeping true to who you are. Keep it up
I'm so proud of everything Connor has achieved! What a trip seeing he's growth over the years. I hope he continues to be as happy and healthy as he's right now ❤️
I really love the direction your career took, the kind of content that you make on all your channels is pretty much exactly what I like watching, but I just have one pet peeve: the time between your streams and the uploads to the ConnorDawg channel is insane to me. I understand there's a lot of editing involved and it might not be a priority compared to your other projects but it just feels very disconnected especially seeing clips right after streams and then 3 months later in a ConnorDawg video being like "Didn't I see this ages ago?"
I would agree with this. The excuse I made up for him was it was content that was being put out specifically when he was busy doing other stuff and couldn’t stream haha. So I see it as filler content to have something “new” to watch when he isn’t streaming or uploading anywhere else.
I do agree though, I always feel like I’m having deja vu when I watch the VOD uploads lol
It’s been so awesome watching your channel grow over the years, you should be super proud of your content and all the awesome stuff you’ve been doing for charity, all the travelling to meet fans, and all the new things you’ve been trying out! Keep it up and keep having fun doing it 😊
Really liked this casual update video a lot :D Also love how Connor accidentally became a successful streamer xD
Gosh, I've been with this channel since you were doing Black Butler stuff so to see how much you have changed and your channel has changed over the years makes me really happy. I'm glad you love doing what you're doing and that you're living the dream. Keep it up! I'll definitely keep supporting your content for as long as you're around!
Positive feedback here. Thanks for the fun videos that help give more enjoyment throughout the day than there would if you hadn't had worked for it,Glad to hear you love the job and the viewers as much as we love the videos
Absolute respect for Connor man, giving back to the community and using his reach for good causes takes a good heart.
Having this kind of initiative to help others is just heartwarming.
Thanks for all the content dude! :D
I just think it’s so funny how if the boys had never moved to Japan and created Trash Taste I never would have watched Connor. I knew about Grant and Joey but Trash Taste has really become one of the best parts of my week. I also enjoy all of Connor’s content. It’s thanks to him that I started watch Twitch again and I use it more casually than before. So I just wish him the best! 🎉
Connor's "I rented a Japanese boyfriend" video was randomly in my suggested videos just over a year ago. I literally just watched his videos of "trying 100 different kinds of____" videos for a bit with him and kaho and then I was introduced to Chris through a few of them. Then I watch journey across Japan where I saw Joey for the first time and Emma and Sharla and Natsuki. Then I saw Aki in one of Joey's vids and then eventually I can across trash taste where I learned about Garnt. It's crazy how many people I've found in literally just over a year through their collaborations. And I genuinely like all of them and I am subscribed to all of them including Ryotaro. I listened to the Livestreams and podcast while cleaning a lot last year and earlier this year. I'm not short on content ever!
I did not know Connor is this wholesome and grounded. It felt like talking to my grandpa for the amount of life advice he gave lmao
Love this man he’s so wholesome and a big inspiration
Conor's totally right: Rotenburo in a winter Hokkaido onsen is one of those bath experiences you need to have. It's not just fast-walking politely to the bath in -20C then doing your best not to bomb into it, but the total onsen experience both before and after the bath.

“Do you think you’ve become addicted to crane games?”
That’s like the equivalent to asking Joey if he’s addicted to reading manga

Damn, you fell off sadge
i do enjoy these laid back q&a's. always a fresh perspective on things with honest answers. i appreciate it. i thoroughly enjoy this channel and your main. both have great content. you can definitely see the effort that is put into each channel, especially the main. love me some taste of japan and wacky weekend. (wacky weekend may be my favorite series)
I’ve loved watching you grow over the years! Its been crazy to think I’ve been watching you since highschool and it’s been 6 years since then. It’s been an incredible journey and I can’t wait for the next years update!
I'm so happy to see you do move IRL streams, I absolutely love the IRL streams however due to our time differences and my schedule, I almost never see you live, but I don't care, i enjoy watching your VODs so please keep uploading them! Thank you. The last VOD of you in Canada was really fun.
It's been like 3 years since I went to japan and I cannot put into words how much I miss the convenience of conbinis compared to my area

Japanese see marriages and relationships as an economical contract. The love aspect is not there for them.
Love which is normally an abstract concept, is made commercially and tangible in Japan in the form of superficial ads, cliché valentine tropes and things they "think" is love.
So for Western men and women, I advise not to seek a relationship in Japan or Asia.
Culture and Western philosophy vs Eastern philosophy is too important of a factor to ignore. You will end up miserable down the line, wondering why your Japanese wife/husband never speaks up their mind and lets their frustration get to boiling point(scary in Japan).
It's like talking to a wall instead of your partner. The Japanese/Asian man are taught to see women as objects of sexual desire and housewives.

Asian men also often suffer from an identity crisis, getting angry/frustrated/confused with themselves. Thats why you see Asian men adopting other peoples culture in the craziest way.
In conclusion, take culture and history into consideration before you decide to pursue your yellow fever/fetish

Loved being able to see your journey. Glad you're feeling happier with where you are in your life!
Oh man, it's kind of hard to believe that the last QnA was a year ago, I feel like it was not that long ago. Been loving the content, both on this channel and in the ConnorDawg and I'm glad to see you enjoy making it as much as we love watching it. Keep up the good work!
as a person that live in Norway i am so happy i live in Norway my country is so very nice
same.
As a Dane I go to bed thankful that we are not like the Swedes. I think the only two countries I think that are better than Denmark would be Norway (for the natural beauty) and Finland (for its educational system, and saunas).
As a person who lived in Norway, i prefer my current life in Japan. Norway is still nice though
@@icebox1954 Whats the biggest issues w sweden do you think as a dane?
@@TheBollibolli The political system. It's so concerned with being political correct that the truth and the safety of its citizens are both undermined.
Immigration is a big part of that.
Denmark is a close neighbour and has overall the same culture except the complete political correct angle, and I'd honestly be terrified if our country went the same way.
The Swedish government does not care about the needs of the people because it interferes with the politically correct narrative. It's so tragic.
I'm Happy to hear that you are happy even with everything happening from the all the traveling to probably a very busy schedule In Japan.
Here's to the 4th year in Japan!!
thanks for this, really, I'm stoked that you're happy and this crazy endeavor has worked out, keep on keeping on, i appreciate all your outlets and look forward to seeing you and the bois in Seattle
Thank you Connor for another great year of content. It's been so amazing seeing you develop on yt over these past few years, and I hope there are many more to come!
I don'tcare that you've switched from 1 upload a week to once every 2 weeks, you give us so much content outside of the channel such as all your streams and clips. It almost makes it easier for me to stay on top of the videos with other things going on on my life. Love the content keep it up!
Super deserving. Love to see your content Connor! The vibes, the creativity, the friends and the charity, nothing is ever short of amazing. Keep living your awesome life to the fullest 🙌🏻🙌🏻
I have been following your youtube since 2018/2019 and it's so cool to see how you've progressed; you've made my school years super fun since it's comforting to come back and watch your content (whether it's on youtube or twitch)
Thanks for this video and all your others. I am so glad you are happier than ever and enjoying life as well as your content. Keep up the great job, we appreciate your creativity and work ethic.
Thanks Connor for this update for the CDawg krew after quite a while.
Honestly, I really enjoyed this video as it was nice to just sit back and see how you and your content has changed or gotten better as well as your general views on a lot of things. Love the idea of doing these every year.
Also 13:30 is nice to hear :)
Very good and consistent tone of video throughout whole thing
I discovered your content from trash taste and now I’m a proud member of the Cdawg Crew love your channel keep doing what you love king ❤️
Wooooo! Can’t wait to see you at Comic Con! So mad that due to scheduling all my JoJo’s Cosplay are from Friday-Sunday 😭
Wait, are you telling me a cute kohai girl won't bully me into being with her?
Won't step on me?
I've been watching your content for a very long time and it makes me really happy to see you so successful and happy. You deserve it!
I appreciate you transforming your content from twitch into videos on youtube, it definitely makes it easy when im not able to catch a stream!
Love the thumbnail👍
to one of those questions, its so much easier to view a youtube video then checking out the stream. since i can watch a youtube video any time and dont have to worry about being at a stream on a certain time and day and watch 5 hours worth of content
Connor put so much work this year and It's good to see how far he came
As Malaysian, when Connor mention Malaysia ..oh man i start dreaming one day can meet him and the bois ✨
Wtf
I’ve been following since the days of the faceless black butler content. I think it was kinda around when you started, but definitely not the beginning. Watching you grow and shift has been amazing. You’ve been happier in your videos, and you seem more proud in what you do, and I think it shows. I am happy to be witness to all the changes you have gone through, and I can’t wait to see more!!
I can't believe how fast time has passed. I started watching this channel shortly before you moved to Japan. Keep up the great work!
Loved see you in MN for the Trash Taste Tour. Looking forward to all the content you and the boys will put out in the future.
as someone who's lived and dated in both the uk and japan, i'd say this: in japan, it's easier, but it's worse. it's true that you're automatically more desirable than at home basically just for being gaijin, so a higher % of dating age people will be interested in you and you're statistically less likely to get shut down if you ask someone out.
however, the dating itself is a lot more complex and annoying in japan. for one, the language barrier makes it harder to communicate, and in some cases harder to be charming. if you're more socially awkward then this might actually suit you, since it does kind of simplify everything, but i personally found that i couldn't express myself how i wanted a lot of the time. the other thing is that the rules and expectations of dating here are different and, in my experience, quite restrictive.
tl;dr it's harder to succeed back home, but more enjoyable when you do
If you wanna learn a language the best way to learn it to move to that country and having to actively use the words you’re learning, that’s how I learned English so quick
You are doing a great job and living life to the fullest. So cool! Keep it up.
I love these talks you do, you're my comfort youtuber so THANK YOU :)
Hard to take Connor seriously about dating in Japan when he came there just to start dating a British affable youtuber.
One of my favorite content creators. Always keeping it real 👏
Not long ago I realized that you are my favourite youtuber. Wouldn't have guessed that this would happen when I watched the first episode of trash taste when it was fresh... Cheers to another year!
The only issue with dating in Japan is the language barrier. You'll find a lovely person but she may have poor/average level English making communicating challenging and relating to her more difficult early days. To overcome you'd have to find a middle ground and both learn each others language. I'm proficient in both English & Japanese and yes I did kinda do that for love lol.
Additionally to the barrier there is the difference in relationships as a whole. A japanese woman will want to introduce you to her family and speak of marriage pretty quickly as they are expected to marry rather early in life.
Most Western countries wouldnt rly talk about marriage until they got steady for 1-3 years.. not 1-3 months.
Also mentioned in abroadinjapan
Japanese see marriages and relationships as an economical contract. The love aspect is not there for them.
Love which is normally an abstract concept, is made commercially and tangible in Japan in the form of superficial ads, cliché valentine tropes and things they "think" is love.
So for Western men and women, I advise not to seek a relationship in Japan or Asia.
Culture and Western philosophy vs Eastern philosophy is too important of a factor to ignore. You will end up miserable down the line, wondering why your Japanese wife/husband never speaks up their mind and lets their frustration get to boiling point(scary in Japan).
It's like talking to a wall instead of your partner. The Japanese/Asian man are taught to see women as objects of sexual desire and housewives.
They are emotionally detached from the social aspect of adulthood, which makes raising potential kids very difficult for them.
Asian men also often suffer from an identity crisis, getting angry/frustrated/confused with themselves. Thats why you see Asian men adopting other peoples culture in the craziest way.
In conclusion, take culture and history into consideration before you decide to pursue your yellow fever/fetish
Massive respect to you dude
I’m extremely honored to be apart of the Cdawg Crew! 🎉
The fact that this man has time to date….
But overall it’s been awesome seeing Connor’s content evolve and not just stuck in the progression of everything needs to be bigger and better and topping the last video. Variety in videos and content is really awesome to see.
I love how Connor's videos are edited. This brings the comedic value just on point. Always have a good laugh here xD
Thank you for the tip but i wouldnt need this because i will never get a girl lol
Howww did you know what he is talking about in the video? It’s only been a few seconds online ?
Damn you’re quick to put yourself down
Not with that attitude
Have you tried guys ?
Never say never man. The unexpected might happen.
20:30 to 20:36 we need more people like him.
