Here are some of our
true love stories.
|
|
Eriko & John
|
|
My good friend who married to an American and
living in Japan introduced me Pacific Relations. At that time
I lived in Italy, but I was always interested in Japan and Japanese
culture, movies, so I love to married to a Japanese woman. In
July 2004, I visited Eriko in Japan. We had a very good time,
and my heart was really attracted to her. She felt the same,
but she did not show so much emotions at the beginning.
In Christmas, Eriko visited me in Italy and we had a wonderful
time. By that time, I wanted to be with her right away, however,
I was once married, so until I was sure, I wanted to take more
time. Also she had a job and her family never thought that their
daughter getting married to an American, so it was better to
slow down. I asked to be relocated to Japan in 2005, we regularly
saw each other. Adjusting to Japan life for myself and seeing
Eriko every three weeks, was very good for me because I could
talk to her relatives and parents. In 2007, we started to live
together and I proposed her. We will be married this fall. |

Chieko
& Richard
|
|
I was always interested in America and I once studied in
Texas when I was in early 30s. After I came back to Japan, I
join Pacific Relations. I met several men through Pacific Relations,
but Richard was very attractive to me. I visited him a few times,
but he was very skeptical about the fact long distance relationship
would work. He was once married, so he was very cautious. So
I decided to move to Seattle and live with him. After three
months of my stay, we decided to get married. I applied my green
card here in the US and within 4 months, I received Green Card
At the beginning I was nervous since I came as a tourist visa
for three months to live with him. It was a big risk for me,
quitting my job, moving my apartment, but Pacific Relations
advisor was very helpful and encouraged me to take a risk to
grab the chance to be happy. It was really worth it and we are
very happy now. I think people should not be afraid and
try to pursue your dream, what you believe in your heart, so
that your dream will come true.

Miki
& Ben
|
|
How are you? During the Winter Break I flew
to Japan and married Miki, who you introduced me to some time
ago. We filed visa applications together at the US Embassy in
Tokyo and we hope to begin our life together in the US this
April. During the 2 years prior to this I was in graduate school
working on an invention . During this period I struggled unsuccessfully
to start a company to build and test this invention in collaboration
with my university. I was short on money and unable to visit
Miki in Japan. Miki and I exchanged e-mail nearly every day.
I was impressed by her love and support during a long time of
separation. My love for her grew as a result of the constant
support that I received. I am very happy to announce my marriage
with Miki in Japan on December 26, 2005. It was a small ceremony
at which her immediate family attended together with one friend
of mine living in Japan. I wish to note that studying Japanese
language has increased greatly the happiness of my relationship
with Miki.

Saya
& Rick
|
|
I was a Pacific Relation's member for almost two years before
I met Saya. Pacific Relations introduced many women for me and
I dated a couple of them, but non of them were not exactly what
I wanted. I was looking for a local Japanese woman and wanted
to spend many weekends together before making a commitment.
Most of them were very attractive, but I was not comfortable
making a quick decision, but most of them wanted me to decide
pretty quickly. Saya also lived in Japan, but she was somehow
different. She was very honest about her feelings, but she did
not put a pressure on me. When I spent time with her, I was
very comfortable and when she was not with me, I missed her
a lot. So I invited her to come and live with me for three months
and at the end of three months, we got married. Even though
we had a small wedding, I think it was the most happiest memory
in my life. I really appreciate Pacific Relations brought us
together.
(They had a baby boy in July 2006.)

Yuki
& Danny
|
|
We started to correspond each other by e-mail
in March 2004 and since then Yuki and I are more and more close
each other. I visited her in November and met her son (4 years
old) and her parents and we got engaged. Yuki is a very hard
working, intelligent woman who raises her son by her own. We
got married in May 2005 and she is now applying for a immigrant
visa to the US. We will be together when her visa was approved.
Thank you very much for your kind advice and encouragement.

Masami
& Dan

I joined Pacific Relations in January 2004
and one night before making profile requests, one profile really
caught my eyes. It is my husband now. At the beginning, he did
not take it so seriously because he thought I was too young
for him. But by exchanging emails and talking on the phone,
he understood that I was serious about him. We met in September,
2004 for the first date and it went so well. I fell in love
with his photo and profile, but real himself was much better
than I expected. He visited me in Japan in November and we got
engaged. We got married in April, 2005 and now I am busy for
preparing for my wedding in LA and also waiting for the final
interview for my immigrant visa. Naomi was very helpful and
encourage me when I did almost lost my confidence toward him.
Now I am very happy. I can't believe the fact that I fell in
love with the picture of the person online and now I am married
to that man. I hope more people will be happy through Pacific
Relations. Thank you.
(They had a baby boy in July 2006!)

Yuriko
& Dave
|
|
Getting married to a Japanese woman was my
dream. I was a single dad and looking for a nice, caring person
who accepted my son. I moved from Michigan to Japan to teach
English but I also wanted my son to experience Japan. While
I was in Japan, I met several women, but I finally met
Yuriko. She has her own children, but she accepted my son and
loves my son. We are having our own bay in September 2007. My
dream finally came true.

Katsue
& Robert
|
|
When I signed up for Pacific Relations, I
thought that there was only a remote possibility that I might
meet a Japanese lady. And I was particularly interested in someone
who was 60+ years of age. As it turned out, only a much younger
lady showed any interests, and she is 51! The other side of
the coin was that I knew my health was not the best, but I though
that I could be a good husband for another five, ten or fifteen
years. I told Katsue about this; however, she accepted me anyway!
Katsue and I are very happy together and we are going to see
the Mariner's games this summer since we are both a big fan
of the baseball. Thank you very much for all your help. Katsue's
green card arrived less than 3 weeks since she left Japan.

Risa
& Steve
|
|
When I joined Pacific Relations, I was not sure that I could
find my woman here. I tried other marriage agency, specialized
for Japanese women and Western men. I am very impressed at the
quality of the female members in Pacific Relations. They were
very serious, and speak English quite well. Risa was one of
the quality women in Pacific Relations and she was young, very
fun personality, and we got along very well. Even though we
have 13 years apart, she did not mind it since her mother and
father had 13 years age difference. We are very happy and had
a daughter in 2006.

Keiko
& Walt
|
|
My friend recommended Pacific Relations but I was not sure I
could really meet a person from Japan and fell in love and got
married. I was not confident about long distance relationship
and I once told her that it was not going to work. But Keiko
was very patient and understanding about my feelings. We spend
more time and visited each other often and she finally quit
her job and came to stay with me for three months. During her
stay, I was confident that she was the right woman for me and
we got married. She now has a good job, which most Japanese
women have difficulties to start their career in the US, but
she is lucky. Thank you Naomi and Dan for all the help.
(They had a baby girl in March 2006)
