Divorce
But first, some SMS Magic.
>Hey. Let's cook some dinner and watch a movie tonight.
>>Sorry, can't make it. Seeing a man about a dog.
>Are you sure you're not seeing a woman about a cat?
And back to divorce. Kiwi guy at work looks on the road to getting a divorce. He's got a couple of kids with a japanese girl, and they've only been in japan 3 months. They married in NZ. Anywho, I was thinking about what makes a intercultural marriage survive over here, and as obvious as it might sound, it could well be language. If the foreigner "Nihongo wakara nai", then unsurprisingly, he/she will be marginalised by the family. When you look at it without emotion - is anything really surprising in life?
