Our Love Story

My father is Korean and my mother is Japanese. So I am double (not “half”) with Korea and Japan.

Japan and Taiwan is very close but we have many cultural differences. I will share some episodes!

2 years have passed since Jeff moved to Japan. His Japanese is getting better and his appearance is Asian, so people often mistake him for Japanese. But there are many moments that I feel he is really Taiwanese, not Japanese in our life. So I’m gonna share some of them.

Jeff and I watched an old Japanese drama, “Beautiful Life” last weekend. I think this drama was released more than 10 years ago. I was a junior high school student at that time, and just thought “if I date with someone, my life will be like this…?” But this time I felt so many things, because I’m also dating with non-disabled guy now.

~ Continued from yesterday’s post ~ I realized that “I tend to doubt Jeff because I don’t have confident in myself”, and started thinking that “even if he is a bad guy, I still wanna know real him!”

As I wrote in this blog before, I met Jeff in 2007 in U.S. When I started dating with him, I was 20 years old. And he was my first boyfriend. I’m very outgoing and love to challenge whatever I’m interested in, even if someone stops me. However, as I got older, I had more things that I couldn’t do like others. One of them is dating.

I’m 27 years old this year. Some of my friends are getting married and some have babies already. Jeff and I have been talking about this too, and we want a baby in the future.

I met Jeff in Wisconsin, U.S. in April 2007, and we started dating in 2 weeks. But after 4 months, we had to start long distance relationship between Taiwan and U.S. I am sharing some tips to maintain a good long distance relationship!

Jeff’s Japanese is getting better and better. He even picks up bad Japanese words really fast…from me!
