I exchanged a PM with him. If he wishes to share my advice here, I don't mind. I don't really deal with many private messages anyways, and the issue at hand is not a necessarily private matter for me; in fact I would welcome comments, additions and corrections to any advice I have to give, since all of my knowledge of international marriage in Japan is second or third-hand.

Best advice is when a woman starts talking marriage run, run fast, run far away. It doesn't matter what her nationality. Run run run....
