Help for a hard up newbie

[Commodore]

Hey guys,

I hope no one minds my post. I read through some earlier posts to try to get answers but some of them were dated and not really specific to my situation.

I'm flying to Japan for a week and a half soon. I've got a room pre-ordered (You'd have to pm me to get the exact location), but it's in Tokyo, and I'll only be in that city for a couple of days.

I'm really looking forward to seeing the country, but I was also wondering if I could spend some time with a Japanese girl. I used to be able to pick girls up without much effort (in other countries), but now I'm a disabled vet (nothing too serious- I just have to walk with a cane for the next 6 months until my physical therapy is done) and that turns women off like nothing else. It'd be nice to actually get to spend time with a woman. I'm too self-conscious to approach women right now.

I'm not saying I'd hire an escort, but if I did, I'd want to know what to do. I know to be clean (I'm always hygenic) and I've been known to be overly polite. Some things concern me though.

If I were to stay in Ikebukuro, would that be too far out of the way?

How much Japanese would I need to know?

I've become a "sweet guy" (yuck), primarily just due to my having to concentrate on my leg. So no worries about me being rude, tardy, disrespectful, etc.

Finally, I'm very concerned about issues of legality. I don't wanna break laws and get into trouble. I don't want to end up with unnecessary trouble, or have to fight off thugs, which I am incapable of right now.

I guess this is the only time I will ever get to see Japan. I'd like to have some fun while I'm there. Maybe it will help me get my confidence back for when I come back home. I'm not a bad looking guy, intelligent, kind, etc. I just can't attract women like I used to, and that sucks since I'm not even 30 years old.

Any help or guidance would be appreciated. I don't wanna cause any trouble during what I hope will be a break from a hard time. Please pm me if you think it would help. I'd be very,very grateful.

With all that said, I'm still unsure about everything.

First and foremost, enjoy your stay in Japan.

Picking up girls here isn't much different than anywhere else except language. If you don't speak any Japanese, your options will be really limited. (quality wise)

Ikebukuro is on the main train lines, which can get you most anywhere fairly quickly. You would probably interested in taking the Yamanote line to Shibuya or Shinjuku, where most of the night-life happens.

You don't need to read or speak Japanese to use the train system. All signs and information is posted in English and Japanese. (Well, all of the important information. Other detailed information is usually in Japanese only.)

Japan can be whatever you make of it. It's a difficult country to live in as a foreigner right now. If you're just here visiting, then you should make the most of it. You won't get into any trouble unless you go looking for it... just act normal and be average. As long as you are drug-free and don't attempt to solicit drugs from anyone, you'll be fine. Escorts are a non-issue, they don't really care about it. The only time they care is when it becomes a public issue... such as arguing in public, fighting or not respecting a lady when she says no.

I'm not really sure what you are after answer wise, but all I can offer is just be normal and you'll be fine.

Thanks a lot for your help. I'll be sure to take all of what you've said into consideration.

Also, thanks to those who pm'ed me. This trip is going to help me get my confidence back.

Much appreciated.
