Hi everyone,
Discovered the site while trying to learn more about the social scene in Tokyo. After lurking for a few days and learning more about fuzoku and the swinging scene, I’ve joined the forums and thought I should introduce myself. Although I’ve visited Japan dozens of times, I’ve only just moved here in December of 2020.
I am very recently separated from a marriage that has been loveless for over five years, and am just starting to process what that means. Being rebuked for five years has a bit of an effect on your self esteem, by the way. On top of that, I’m also in the process of finding an apartment (which is its own hell, being gaijin with a cat and very basic Japanese skills).
I currently work as a freelance designer for American clients, so the pandemic and change of local haven’t really had an impact on my work. So my schedule is flexible and I’m enjoying a slower pace while I get settled in. (Sitting on my half of the proceeds from selling the house doesn’t hurt either)
I’ve only ever had one p4p experience, which I will write up in the reviews section. Bliss out sounds like an absolute blast (when you catch it on a good night), and I’m interested in exploring that once normalcy returns. (Fingers crossed)
lastly, I’ve discovered that tinder in Japan is an absolute shit-show. I didn’t know what it was like in the US, as I was married, but here it’s a near endless parade of profiles without face pictures and no personal details, or agency manufactured profiles that are obviously part of a Chinese marriage visa scam. What matches I have made are slow to respond, with little spark or flirty chemistry.
(oh, and I chose the profile pic because I get told that I look like him all the goddamn time, and I’ve just decided to lean into it.)
