I don't think the romantic type of love is special. And I am started to think that the romantic type of love isn't real. I mean about more than half of romantic couples either break up with each other or divorce each other, while most platonic best friends remain friends until death. Also, most people are pretty much comfortable enough to be naked around someone and have sex with someone that they have no romantic feelings towards. So sex isn't really a thing about romance. I think that having a platonic best friend is a lot better than having a romantic partner or spouse is. Having someone who's like a sibling to you is a lot better than having a romantic partner is. Also, you would more likely be much closer to a person who's like a brother or sister to you than you would be with a partner or spouse. People tend to fight with their partner or spouse a lot more than they do with a platonic best friend, and you never fight with your best friend the way you fight with your partner or spouse. Partners and spouses are just temporary. If you break up or divorce them, it's hard to go back to them. With your platonic best friend, you're going to make things work, because they are your best friend, they are your go to partner. It's always easier to make amends with them than it is with a romantic partner or spouse.

This happens often in online gaming communities. Somebody recently who I was starting to know very well as his friend went dark for a 4-5 days. His Best friend posted in a few discord servers and informed all of us that he had passed away. The worst feeling is never knowing what happen to them and if they will ever call you back.

This is true. I knew someone from playing a MMO in the 90s. We got on very well so I was shocked when she revealed she had stage 3 lung cancer one day. She was alone as her son was a marine posted overseas. She went dark one day and I knew that was it. I never saw her avatar again but she left me all her in-game stuff. I'm glad she told me but I was sad I couldn't be there by her side as we're from different countries and I didn't have the means to go. I didn't stay very long in that game after that. It's difficult when you logged in and you expect to see a name and it isn't there. You know it will never be there again.

That is getting to know them. Sometimes you can find out more about a person than the people they've actually met. Something about being at a distance allows some people to open up more.

She has clearly been so worried about Fukue for so many years. Just the way she weeps after hearing her voice on the phone shows her relief.

Fukue was bullied in school, yet she was so important to 1 person that after so many years and no contact this 1 person flew across the world to find her again. How beautiful! Never doubt how special you are Fukue

My first day of College, I had a "crush" on the most beautiful girl I had ever seen. After a semester, we became best friends. I could never tell her how I felt because she was so beautiful. 20 years later, we ran into each other and she invited me out to dinner. After 20 years, it felt so comfortable to be around each other again. A year later we married.

Ahhhhh this makes me really happy that you were able to find her. True friendships really last a lifetime ❤️❤️❤️

This made me cry. I also have a "lost pen pal" in Japan. I am an American woman, 74 years old, and exchanged letters and small gifts with Yoshiko Jinno, of Nagoya, from about 1958 to about 1963. She was two or three years older than I. She suddenly stopped writing to me. In the last letter, she told of a young man she was in love with. My memory is foggy about details, but as I vaguely recall, she did not think he loved her. She sounded sad, maybe even a bit hopeless. I wrote another few times, increasingly puzzled and worried. I never heard from her again. Somewhere, I have those letters, but they are in a storage locker and I am too old to dig through everything to find them. I have thought of her many, many times over the years. I would love to tell her how much she opened my eyes to other cultures and places. All my life, I have longed to know other places and have had some opportunity to travel. In 2012, I had the opportunity to go to Tokyo and Kyoto on a semi-business trip, but only for a week. Finding her would have been impossible in that time and without being able to speak the language. I loved my trip, and it was melancholy, as well as fascinating. Yoshiko was with me the entire time, out there, somewhere. I hope she is happy, with grandchildren and a little house of her own.🌱🌼🌱

It just gave me so much happiness to know that despite Fukue going through so much as a kid, she is living a happy life with her husband and children.

This made me super emotional. I wonder how many people have a friend that has impacted them so much as a child. For me... watching this was uncanny because I have a mirrored experience of what Jessica and Fukue had. My Childhood BFF was Kaori and she moved to my town. We had about 2 years together and were very close. Our younger sisters were the same age too so we all played together. I remember the day she moved- She and her family came to our house to say goodbye- we were all crying as we waved to each other and they drove away. She moved to another state and then back to Japan. We tried to stay in touch as pen pals too! But we lost contact. I have a little folder with pictures of us and some letters she sent me. They have the names of her mom and dad, but I have no idea where they moved to after leaving the states. Even though I've always dreamed of finding her again, I'm was never sure how. I'm really glad these two reunited. It's really special.

Beautiful story... I'm 57 now.. Had a pen pal when I was 16...we never met but I loved him.. We wanted to meet but neither one of us could afford it... However to make a long story short we met 18 years later.. By then we were both married to different people.. It was a tough time but or friendship remained intact... I became very ill and could not afford medical treatment in my country. He invited me to his country where he got me the best in the medical field and paid all my medical expenses. He and his lovely wife and caring family took care of me for two months then I returned home. That was 20+ ago. We are still in contact via social Media. I was invited to visit this tear but covid 19 changed things... GOD place folks in our lives for so many different reasons. I'm glad He placed my friend in mine. Great friends are a blessing.

Is it really so shocking that someone who at a young age goes to school in a foreign country would be well adapted? When moving to a country the appropriate thing to do is to strive to integrate in as many ways as possible. Jessica and her family clearly did their best to adapt to their surroundings and a key component was learning the language and the manners. Not to mention how is one to learn effectively if one cannot understand the language? I wasn't shocked at all when she started speaking Japanese, the thing that I did applaud her for though was the way she correctly accepted the business card. Even I made the mistake of not properly inspecting someone's business card the first time I was in Japan and I prepped thoroughly for that trip.

Yeah, the fact he took time off to help this lady find a long lost friend. I doubt they'd do that in the states...probably not even return a phone call. I love Japanese culture for such niceties as that but unfortunately they also have bullying like every country. In a way it might make kids more resilient and grateful to still form friendships. The Jessica was probably viewed as an oddity and Fukue sensing their being mutual "outsiders" chose to try to get to know her and their friendship blossomed. That is scary when you lose touch with someone, you fear they are dead, lost your contact info and moved away and will never be found again...So awesome the news people were there to also help find Fukue. Yeah, probably since it is a small town and this westerner musician who came back would make the story all the more compelling for locals.

I'm an elderly man, and this brings an upwelling of emotions again in a remarkably wonderful way. Thank you for sharing your and Kukue's story.

My best friend was killed in a car accident 3 months after graduating. I understand that feeling of loss. Please stay friends!!

Ken narville, dude, I’m sorry for whatever bad experiences you’ve had with Japanese people who you thought were your friends, but please don’t assume that that means ALL Japanese people are just like that. To state such an assumption about any race or nationality as a whole, as fact, is to overlook the human individual and imprison yourself in a sad, lonely little box. I could never wish that on anybody.

@HopeUnquenchable

4 жыл бұрын

Ken narville, you’re entitled to your opinion based on your personal experience. At the same time, if you keep in mind that no matter how painful your personal experiences with Japanese people have been, you have not met and gotten to know MOST Japanese, you can still go forward - with caution, yes, but not without hope. Each human being, regardless of race, nationality or culture, is an individual you can only evaluate after taking the time to get to know. Evaluating a person negatively _before_ getting to know them, not only does your fellow human being a disservice; it does *you* a disservice as well, depriving yourself the opportunity to explore possible friendships or life-enriching relationships. I’m not saying you need to try to get to know more Japanese people if you’re still hurting from your past experiences, and need time to heal. I’m only saying please, try to keep those experiences in perspective: try to remember that the number of Japanese people who wronged you, are in no way most of the Japanese people in the world. As long as we have not yet met and become well acquainted with the majority of individuals in any demographic, we cannot in all fairness slap a negative label on all or even most of them. By all means, share your experiences if you need to process what happened and find closure, but don’t let your pain drive you to make sweeping derogatory statements about any group as a whole. Don’t abandon hope just because it’s easier to be angry.

I had a pen pal from Japan back in 4th grade. Our teacher had taught English there years before so he along with a Japanese teacher he had befriended jointly set up a pen pal program for their two respective classes for the entire school year. My pal was a girl named kimiko if I recall correctly and we liked writing to each other enough that we continued our exchange even past the point when the program was over. I still think about those letters sometimes even now almost 25 years later and wonder how she’s doing and I hope she still looks back on those times fondly as well from time to time.

Jose Solis was my best friend from elementary. One day his whole family was just gone, moved else where. He made me realize I had worth at a young age when I was pretty much invisible amongst others. Thanks guy. Wish you the best wherever you are whomever you are now.

I cut off my friends from not being accepted the way I am. I was an entertainer at girls gatherings and this one from my close friend didn't want me at all to dance. She felt that's what's making me being popular and she disliked it. I helped her in many ways beside bathing her kids, taking them to parks, even cleaning their poop sometimes but that just never felt enough for her. We were friends for almost 15 years I totally respected her house since she was married everything i wanted i had to ask but that never felt enough. She copied my dressing style even my habit gosh! she just liked the way i talked the way i do things and after she got enough from me, When i had a very difficult situation that i expected her to help me, she ignored me and started making some distance from me and this happened when i got married in 2015. I just decided to delete her out of my life but I can't get her out of my mind from what she did to me it was unbelievable. My husband just can't stand the stories he hears about us and he does understand WHY MY FRIEND REALLY AFFECTED ME EMOTIONALLY, AND MENTALLY. Pray for me guys friends are horrific!!!

I couldn't stop myself from crying. How sad and at the same time sweet story this beautiful souls have. Thank you for bringing such a beautiful story to us!

I am so glad this turned out happily. My grandmother had a similar experience, but it did not turnout well. Grandma had a very good Japanese BFF who lived in the US for nearly 20 years before she moved back to Japan. This was in the days before the Internet became available to the general public, so they wrote to each other often. I remember the stacks of letters Grandma kept. The last letter she received from her friend, she wrote she was coming back to the US and I remember Grandma was so happy and it seems like she was 20 years younger after receiving that letter. Sadly, her friend never returned to the US because she lived in Kobe, and about 4 months after she wrote the letter, the Great Hanshin Earthquake struck and killed more than 6,000 residents of Kobe. Grandma's friend was among the dead. Our family was so afraid for her because of the deep depression Grandma went into. Even though Grandma was not a Buddhist, she had made shrine in the style of a Japanese butsudan in an alcove of her house in memory of her friend.

​@@genroynoisis6980 I'm not sure that's true. I've heard that, while children learn quickly, they also forget quickly. And from my limited experience, I would say that seems to be true. I think it depends more on how deeply she learned it, and whether she did anything to maintain it after leaving Japan. Having been immersed in it, using it for the majority of the day, every day, for a year--that's going to result in some might deep learning. English speaking adults, even living in Japan, are not likely to be nearly as immersed in the Japanese language, especially if their work involved using their native language (as her father's did). And I expect she did put significant time and effort into maintaining her Japanese.

@@KZreadallowedmynametobestolen Fair point. My native language is Filipino, but I can only speak in a child-like way using the most common phrases. I think the Canadian musician also said something along these lines on video. I left when I was 7, for Australia. I myself have also started forgetting some of the less common nouns, adjectives, and action verbs in Filipino; it feels weird, like when you lose track of your car's keys and have to think back to when you last held them (if that makes sense lol). Earlier this year on a trip to the Philippines, I found myself stammering and stuttering with my words, which was embarrassing. In the case of this video, I'm positive she had to revise some basic Japanese to write and speak like she did as a kid*. *Note that you only need a native speaking child's vocabulary to communicate adequately with people face-to-face in another language. Writing is a little harder, but it's still possible with a little revising.

I'm originally from northern Italy (lake Garda). When I was teenage I became friend with a Danish boy that used to come in holiday in the summer with his parents. I didn't spoke English at the time and he didn't spoke Italian, however, we became friends. Every year I was receiving a postcard from Denmark, nothing written, just a date. I knew that was the day he was arriving at the camping in my village. We lost contact when I went in the army, I was 17yo. Then my parents moved house. After the military service I started to work in catering and travelling between Italy and Switzerland, never had a chance to find him again. At 26 I moved to England, where I still live. A year ago, I received a message in Facebook. ...it was him! We are now planning a meet either here in England or in Denmark... I'm now 48yo. ❤️

Nothing ever beats true friendship... I absolutely love this story... I got very emotional at the end

Fukue‘s daughter looks so much like Fukue when she was younger, that‘s adorable

It's strange how the impoverished and bullied girl turned out to be as stunning as a model with the beauty to match inside.

Ken narville You’re ugly from the inside out obviously.

It takes alot to make me cry and I can’t stop! What a beautiful story! Thank you for sharing it! ❤❤❤ May the rest of your years be filled with one another! ❤

Very heartwarming story. Lovely example of how children can connect and how those experiences can stay with us and impact our future lives. Yes I cried as well 😊

I feel that Jessica is not just her best friend, but also her “Japanese sister” which is a emotional moment to see them after all those years.

Of course, the Canadian girl provided security and trustfulness in situation where the Japanese girl would otherwise be bullied. Who wouldn't be appreciative of that?

Imagine what it must be like to have someone who genuinely cares so much about you that even after years of no contact they go out to find you
