Take heart: If you're dating a Japanese girl that wasn't raised in Japan, you probably have nothing to worry about. If you are, you're still probably okay - she's already going pretty far outside of the usual "traditional" values. If you're really that worried, you could just be an adult and talk to her about your concerns before you take the plunge and get married. You should probably be doing this anyway - what are your goals and dreams? What do you expect to change or stay the same after getting married? What are your long term plans? These sorts of questions should be fully answered by both parties before you tie the knot.

No she's from Japan. True blood through and through. But yes, you're correct, she's not very traditional. I'm not all that worried; I know things will work out and if they don't I move on. We're both young. She's 27, I'm 25. We're both travelers and neither of us wants to waste the working holiday boat before we're 30. If we're still going strong at 29-30 then I'll propose. It's not something we're talked about directly but it's something we both know without words. Her and I both want the same thing around 30 which is monogamy and kids. I think I'll be fine. I'm pretty happy and excited for the next few years.
