How to deal with Japanese people!!
Hi, guys!!
Today, I write about how to get happiness here in Japan!!
Sadly, many foreigners are failed to have happy life in Japan completely!!
However all Japanese have gentle hearts to share our happiness with you...
So...Please do not hesitate to come over!!
Foreigners who left Japan with unsatisfied feelings!!
Why have I choose this complicated subjects??
Well...I had a chance to hear massive complaining about being in Japan by some foreigners...
Finally they could not accept to live in Japan anymore and decided to go back to their countries with enormous discontent feelings!!
Their complains were...
1, Ruthless attitude
2, Obscure conversation
3, Poker face
4, No enthusiasm (Party pooper)
5, Always be strict at anytime... bla, bla, bla!!
Well, I can strongly be consent of the above, if I take only the meanings that explaining the typical image of Japanese citizens but...
I wonder if these are correct or not, When I consider the actual situations of each complains!!
Ahaha...this article is becoming a perverse complicated content again!!
May be getting lost in a mysterious complicated as Christopher Edward Nolan's movie, "INCEPTION" like, ordinary Japanese people's minds (^^)/
Therefore...Be aware of reading more!!
Why have they failed at Japanese society??
From the point of foreigner's view, you definitely realise to know that their complaining are correct!!
Because they are mature enough(around or more than 30 years old) to know how to behave themselves even at the different society!!
However, they have failed...I think you have deep interest to know what is the reason of their failure??
Well...From "Japanese Point of view" is clear and very simple!!
They had no ideas of being themselves in different cultural society and had no motives to have patient, also had no persistent effort making for to live in Japan!!
So...They had behaved like in their countries, cause of that, had made themselves into a deep pitfall!!
They had spilled out their disappointment feeling against Japanese before they left our country were...
1, The most of Japanese people are not accepted him(her)
2, Tender and kind but people never ever familiar with them
Very sad...it is like a Sofia Carmina Coppola's movie, "Lost in translation"!!
Ahaha...puzzling more??
Sorry...I just kidding, but not so far, isn't it??
Foreigners quite often underestimate Japanese people!!
Anyway...Foreigners, especially White people who come to Japan are behaving same way at their countries!!
Do same, act same, think same and behave same...
That behaviour is as same as forcing their Japanese friends to obey other country's common rules!!
Feel strange??
But these are very common style of foreigners, living in Japan right now!!
If you have a time to go Roppongi (六本木: Famous night spot in Tokyo)...You probably have shock to see, so many foreigners gathering along only with own nation, wondering around for idiotic one night love like a beast!!
These are not common at other popular towns, but happens only at Roppongi every day!!
Who is contaminating silent atmosphere??
Also the bad things about this is the most of foreigners think that stretch the images of Roppongi to entire general Japanese images!!
Japanese girls are very easy for a night!!
then...
They obey like a slave in any orders!!
so...
Foreigners are the kings who reign over stupid Japanese citizens!!
This is the truth of real minds can be seen especially to the White people!!
It is insult and annoying...and feel very sad!!
Therefore, the foreigners who influenced at this haughty ideas...they become much having prejudice and arrogance against Japanese people!!
This problem become the cause of "Racism"!!
Anyway...People are forced to make ranking against other people, is the Global standards of educational thought from primary school time...so, "Racism" is the fundamental of human beings to avoid the mind of indelible exclusive shameful conducts...Maybe? (;_;)
Sorry...I have crossed the line of being easy going explanation!!
Ahaha...but this prejudice is also made by our servility attitude too!!
We can not blame on them to be biased people as member of Japanese citizens!!
Take time...explain us more...be patient...untill they recover pure eyes against us...
So...doesn't matter ~(^^)~
Also I have to mention you that the most of the girls wandering around Roppongi are as like Japanese girls but... sometimes coming from other countries...maybe??
How to deal with Japanese society??
Sorry for long explanations as usual (^^)/
Back to the main theme, "How to deal with Japanese society"!!
Well...it is very simple and easy!!
Just pursue the below 5 points!!
Before applying these points, The important points which you have to restructure your mind to...
1, Throw away your common sense
2, Try what they say to do so, even if you do not fully consented with
3, Don't underestimate people, treat as same human beings
4, Be honest to any happenings
Are you ready to grasp the points??
Here we go~~~~(^^)/
Point 1:Be accurate on time
"Be on time" is very important point that the most of foreigners can not to do in Japan!!
If you are not punctual...You will immediately lost reliance from Japanese!!
Well...The most of Foreigners do not feel the lost reliance from Japanese would never known but...
Suddenly they felt that their friends are not trust on you!!
It is because...
"Be on time(Punctual on time)" has the meaning of...
"Punctual on time"...You do not want your friends to spend wasting time...You do care about them...You are honest person!!
In the statistics data...Japanese people's allowance durations are...
Japanese women are...
・3min: Feel late
・5min: Feel insulting
・10min: getting angry
・30min: fed up with you and go back home
Japanese men are...
・5min: Feel late
・15min: Feel insulting
・30min: getting angry
・60min: fed up with you and go back home
From this simple data shows Japan has advanced female supremacy society!!
Why people of other nations have an opposite opinion against us??
Ahaha...People's have rights to think freely!!
Hence...their misunderstanding are our faults too...
So...doesn't matter (^^)/
Oops...went wrong way again...So, what I realy want to explain is...
Do not be late!!
Point 2: No excuse, Just apologise
People came to Japan sometimes makes too much excuses for to protect themselves!!
Well...Well..Well...You do not need to show more embarrassing scene!!
If you have done something wrong...you have to do is just apologise!!
You may say...
Gomen nasai = Sorry
Sumimasen = Excuse me
or...
Sumimasendesita = I'm very sorry
or...
Taihen mousiwake gozaimasen desita = I'm terribly sorry
If you make apologise, they forgive you right away...This is the benefit of being a foreigner, Isn't it??
And to the people who stated as apologizing is the same meaning of defeated to others...
Apologize to others is not the same as defeated to others, it is a superb miracle word to reconsider your attitude and mind, also has the benefit of getting others trust back again too!!
Hence here at this chapter, I strongly mentioning you "apologise to someone" is very common and no need to pretend as you are strong and correct at anytime, here in Japan!!
”Be natural” is the way of living in Japan!!
If you do wrong...just apologise...and people make a mistake...forgive their mistakes with full smile!!
Point 3: No criticism
As I have explained at What is the nature of real Japanese ... Japanese do not like to make arguments with others!!
So...If you have any other opinions, you should not show your logic to others!!
The most of Japanese are try to comprehend to stand on both side, so you maight feel that they are soooooooo~~ obscure, and sometime feel that you are insulted!!
No...No...No...vagueness is our typical trend of cultural difference!!
All Japanese recognise, Argument equal to Fighting!!
So...Do not be upset!!
Since they like you, they do not want to fight with you!!
If you realise to know this point...You may feel creepy not to speak what you want to say!!
In that time...have argument with other foreigners in Roppongi or Shibuya (^^)/
Point 4: Have respect to anybody
As I have explained above...Sometimes foreigners underestimate Japanese (a lot)!!
Recognize you and Japanese are different but same human beings!!
I'm little bit tired of writing a long descriptions...
Ahaha...I have explained at the above already too...
So...You do not need to have more explanations on this issue!!
Point 5: Be happy
Eventually...the keyword of How to deal with Japanese society is...
Be smile all time!!
If you focus on nasty terrible things all day...You never ever be happy!!
Think optimistic way will bring you the real happy life!!
So...everyone...Smile!!
