I’m a 25 year old dude who’s an officer in the American military. Lately life has been kinda miserable and I have an opportunity to potentially shake things up.

I have the opportunity to deploy to Japan for the next three years. I gotta make up my mind within the next three weeks though. Can’t say where the base is, but it’s in one of the major metropolitan areas.

I have been in zero serious romantic relationships in my life and have only had sex one singular time. I speculate that I may have mild undiagnosed autism but that’s neither here nor there. I have a pretty good social life here in the states, I got along great with everyone at my unit male and female, but no romantic connections.

If any of you guys aren’t from the US, it’s pretty common for people in the military to get married young, usually by like 23 or so. I’m the only officer in my office who isn’t married or about to be. It’s been getting on my nerves lately. Life has been incredibly lonely.

I’m worried I go to Japan, have an awesome time, but then I’ll still be single by the time I turn 28 and basically have nothing to show for the whole thing. And no, I’m not going over there to try and find my Yoko Ono. I don’t think that’d work out anyways with the security clearance.

I’ve also seen people be completely burned by their romantic relationships (getting cheated on and being given STIs, costly divorces, spousal abuse, giving birth to severely disabled kids, etc.). I mean, obviously any of that shit would be worse than what I’m going through right now.

Long story short: Am I stupid to consider not going to Japan because I’m worried I’ll be romantically lonely over there?

I'm 36 years old and lonely, living in my parents spare bedroom in their tiny apartment and i'm also a NEET.

Count your blessings.

Yes anon you should do it. You’ve been handed a gift, it would be immoral not accept it graciously. And not that it should be a deciding factor but yes it will be very easy to get a girlfriend there,

you can marry a roastie before you go to Japan or you can marry a white roastie who is also in japan or you can mail order a roastie from russia east europe etc

Japan already has too many US rapemonkeys prowling around. It's funny when base goes on lockdown for the 7th time in a month because they couldn't resist raping another 12 year old, then jarheads cry online that it's inhuman that they can't drink at bars and sell weed on the side for 3 days.

It's a PCS, not a deployment, to Yokota (see how easy that was for me), dumbfuck 1st Lt. I've got outgoing handsome tall officers in my unit who aren't married or about to be and at least one of them isn't worried about it. The other is a sexually frustrated protestant who is cranky about cranking it.
If you wanna get married then get with some fat dependa stateside.
If you need a ball and chain to "show for" your time overseas then either lower your standards because there will be significantly fewer opportunities because you can only get with unmarried officers or don't go.

Or just go and have a fun time while saving up your money. If you come back at 28 with good investments and a masters done as well as a fit bod from actually pushing yourself in the gym you'll be a catch, even with mild autism.

Is this actually an issue though. I thought you just tell your job and its fine

>should I re-up for 3 more years?
yeah bro sounds like a great idea, sign your life away to the government until you're almost 30, perfect way to find a wife for uhhhhhh career advancement I guess

You could have just said everyone does it for the extra benefits, being able to live off-base, etc. Also a hotspot for cuckolding and getting BLACKED

That's pretty normal now, for better or for worse. I wouldn't get hitched just because you have fomo from other people getting married. Thats very womanly behavior.

You will make nice meat for Chinese missiles and drones

Obviously fucking go you retard. Tax payer guaranteed paycheck to fuck tight pale pink nip snatch for 3 years.

Absolutely no brainer

You're only going to get older and uglier. If you really want a wife you could just settle down for some midwestern slampig.
>>
>>2896606
You don't just marry women. Especially those of a hyper-insular culture.

>>2899023
Yes you do.

You should easily be able to find some nice Japanese girl who wants to be your waifu.

>And no, I’m not going over there to try and find my Yoko Ono.
Why on earth not?

>I don’t think that’d work out anyways with the security clearance.
Sure it would. FFS your clearance just requires you to be honest and not treasonous. Japan is a close ally.
