Can I assume your wife is Japanese? Her benefit will be your loss/career suicide which isn't really a benefit to your kid. If you're making good money, stay where you are.

If you want your wife to be happy and destroy your relationship at the same time while your child becomes a mindless nose picking perpetual infant that likes to stick their fingers in other children's buts and will never move out of your house... move to japan.



oh and the career suicide thing too.

Long time lurker. Had to sign up to probe you about this particular sentence.

I'm going to get married to a Japanese national and she is willing to make the move. Financially, it makes more sense. She will be leaving close family ties, friends, etc...

Somewhere in the back of my mind I can see that in a few years after having kids the emotional pull back to her roots will be so great, and the noose so tight around my neck, that I will have to succumb to her wishes. Granted, her family are not nut jobs and thus far are OK with her moving...But for how long I wonder?

Is this the case with you?

I have to agree with SJ.

ohhh you will hate you said this in a few years down the road.

just keep in the front of your mind this, "I can see that in a few years after having kids the emotional pull back to her roots will be so great, and the noose so tight around my neck, that I will have to succumb to her wishes."

with a little FTFY, "I can see that in a few years after having kids the emotional pull back to her nut job family and fucked cuntry will be so great, and the noose so tight around my neck with 2 vise grips on each of my nuts, that I will have to succumb to her wishes or i will lose my kid(s). "

If that's the case, don't marry her. John, Paul, George and Ringo lied: love ain't all you need.

It's only a momentary thought buried in the depths of my pee sized brain. Other than that we are a healthy couple with no issues, family related or otherwise. Now I could bang on about a couple of my exes, both Californian natives who were fruitloops but I shall refrain.

IparryU, that's pretty much it. Should have qualified my statement by mentioning that I have read too many instances where such things have happened.

Can't say that it will/won't happen in my case.

Good luck OP.

Yeah you hit the nail on the head - she spends a comparable amount of time complaining about missing her family.

She says that when her parents are old and ailing she wants to move back to be with them. Her parents are nice and have always treated us well. Maybe it would be better for me and the kid to stay here during that time. Believe me I have no romantic notions about living in Japan.

We've had conversations about this very subject. We've agreed that when the time comes, an option for her, at least, is to go back for a short time. She has siblings that can take of them if need be, to be honest.

As much as I like Japan, it's just not feasible for me to make the move unfortunately. Whether this will be to our detriment later on, who knows...

Can I ask, do you at least visit once a year? This is our plan.

[Yosh]

Yes we take a yearly trip with few exceptions - last year we didn't go but her family came and met us in California.

keep it that way, and push the point that if she has siblings, they should be helping as you are already established and moving to Japan would just means immense debt and no future for your family.

ask her to get you a job with the same salary, etc. and then consider moving to japan.

that or ask if she will get a full time job that is at the same salary level as you.

that should keep things on the back burner if proposed properly.
