Hey all,

I am in a split here.. Obviously not asking the internet for what to do as situations vary from person to person. But just generally sharing things and checking perspectives...

Backstory, I, 28M, moved to Japan in 2022 with the hopes of getting Naturalized and living here... But then about 2 years ago, I met a college friend living in India and we immediately connected. That kind of connection I never expreienced in my whole life... The plan was she would come to Japan after some time... But with change of events, that is no longer possible.

Now, I am in a split. Should I go back or should I stay here... We tried LDR but it's not that helpful... Staying here would definitely help towards the long term plan, you know, buy a house. build assets, FIRE... But with a place like Japan were we don't really have many Indians around. It feels empty, specially now.

All of this, plus the new change of requirements for Naturalization (5y -> 10y residency)... The job uncertainity in India... (Here at least the Social security is good). Then the state of affairs, like weather, politics, daily life struggles back home.

I am at a junction of life where whatever I choose, I will be loosing something meaningful. (:
