Thought that was obvious, marriages are sometimes arranged and theyre not happy but do it out of tradition or parents. At the end of the day, its a choice either to live someone elses life or live your own life

Totally agree with you.

Yess. When news about abuse on children come out, people are so quick to say “omg dont reproduce!” but when couples decided to be child-free, people are judging them 🥲 smh let ppl live however they want as long as theyre not bothering others ;o;

@k o n p e i ✰ s u b s I've been in a long term non-marriage myself (almost 15 years), and we briefly discussed children at the start, but decided against it. We don't have the finances and I am too independent, personally. No shame in that, but I've had some people criticize me as being "selfish."

@@konpeisubs I think adoption is good. N people shouldn’t have kids if they r going to abandon them our abuse then..

As someone who had been in a similar position. You definitely dont need anyone, it is a choice. You can choice to go foward or stay where you are. If your in financial burden then put effort into changing that by having more then a single source of income. Also you dont need a romantic partner if you need help sometimes, try to make friends and live your life. Theres alot more freedom to move around and do whatever you want when youre not held back by responsibilities of taking care of a spouse or children. Also your parents needs to be responsible for themselves, this may come off cold but they will be fine and learn to survive without you. They are robbing you of your youth and life. You can help them in otherways but sometimes be a little greedy/selfish yet kind and caring.

that is so true. my parents never bring up the topic of marriage to me in a profound way till now (I'm 20) maybe that why I'm more open about the idea of marriage unlike my peers but it's not something I'm thinking about right now (I haven't graduated yet so). The expectations of marriage is something to think about before marriage but that shouldn't stop people from pursuing marriage if they find someone fit to be their marriage partner. and I hope you, if you ever get married, live happily with your significant other forever 💕💕 (sorry if my English is bad😣)

@@Mars_261 Thank you. What I meant by marriage expectations is that different people place different expectations on marriage. Finding an ideal marriage partner is finding someone who has similar marriage expectations as you do. People generally have trouble finding someone who is capable of that and that's why they're not yet married. There is no reason not to get married if you find someone who is compatible with you in terms of marriage values but that was the hard part for me. If I had married the first person to suggest marriage, the marriage wouldn't have lasted because their marriage expectations were too different from mine. They couldn't commit to a relationship before marriage and still expected (overnight) a lifelong commitment without having built that type of relationship. They were very much into an old fashioned idea of dating after marriage which meant no contact with me until then but even those values were unclear since they were still meeting with other women. So when they finally decided to get married, I'm guessing none of the other women thought he was good enough. He was under the assumption that because I wanted a committed relationship many years before that I was their best chance for marriage. It's a very weird example I know. Most guys aren't that weird and will communicate clearly what their plans are particularly if it involves something serious like marriage. I guess my point is that I notice a lot of people go from wanting independence to abruptly wanting a relationship for no deeper reason than simply wanting to go through the process like everyone else. Consistency is reliability. Even my parents dated for two years before marriage so they knew what to expect. No surprises. What I don't want is to get married because everyone else is and the find myself trapped and alone like many lonely wives and husbands out there. Finding a commitment minded partner comes first before I can even fathom marriage. Thank you for wishing me happiness. May you find happiness with or without marriage as well. Don't worry about your English. I only speak two languages so I'm not that much better.

did he ever clear the rumours up? or make any explanation? if no, you cant call em fake but just 'rumours'.

I never heard about the Kamio-san rumors so I had to google it just now. that explains why he hasn't been on social media as much as he use to or posts free content anymore 😮‍💨 I'm happy that he's happy though. he would talk about how lonely he was and wanted to find a partner and get married.

You met Hosoyan?? Girl u are so freaking lucky!!🥺

yeah the expectation in Asian culture that you must marry before 30 has led to a lot of unhappy marriages and cheating because people feel so rushed into marriage by their family and society as a whole

@@cottoncandykawaii2673 Yeah, and that's very sad... Not only because you "need" to cheat on your partner, but also because divorce is frowned upon the society... So maybe you have to live with someone you don't love and that's cheating on you, what a nightmare T_T

Are you mistaking him for someone else bcs there’s no such news.

@@konpeisubs Maybe you're right but I could have sworn I've read before that "The Yoshimasa Hosoya" was married and to an ex-seiyuu too.

Not sure where you heard that article, but you might have misread it? Or mistaken it for another seiyuu, because there is currently no news of Hosoya-san being married, that I’m certain.
