Taxes, health insurance, etc. in Japan and the U.S.

I currently hold US citizenship. To take care of my parents at home, I am an employee of an American company, but I am planning to move to Japan in the next year or so to work remotely for a few years.
So I have a few questions and would appreciate it if anyone knows anything about this. First, I am planning to cancel my health insurance through my company. ？

Is the income for joining the Japanese National Health Insurance based on the calculation that I have no income in Japan? ？ If I use my income in the U.S. as a guide, the premiums may be high.

If anyone is familiar with this situation and would be willing to share links to information, I would appreciate it.

I want to get back together with my ex-girlfriend who dumped me because she was attracted to other women.

A few years ago, I was dating my ex-girlfriend for about 2 years. During our relationship, a woman of my type confessed her feelings for me, and I dumped my ex-girlfriend and started dating that woman.

It has been a year and a half since I started dating that woman. At first I forgave her everything because she looked like an actress, but now I regret it. If we went out to dinner, she wouldn't give me her purse and she was courting me because of my status. Education, income, occupation, etc.

While I was feeling depressed, I bumped into my ex-girlfriend by chance and she had become beautiful beyond recognition. My ex-girlfriend is a great cook, kind, and a great woman to have as a wife. Do you think there is still a chance for me to get back together with my ex-girlfriend?

I'm sorry to interrupt, but we both work and my husband waits for dinner when he comes home late at night. He doesn't like it when I make him a healthy meal because it's late and he starts eating a cup of noodles right in front of me.

It's not good if you eat without waiting ？
It's annoying.

I'm tired, but I'm even more tired.

I want to make it easy. At first, I still cooked for my husband, but recently I've decided to cook for both of us if I want to eat what I want to eat. Laughs

That said, I do cook on my days off.

Are you swearing ？ It's annoying that a grown man waits until his wife gets home. Why don't you cook something and eat it by yourself? Your wife works too.

Before that, there are people with dignity in this square ？
Well, it depends on what kind of goods you want

Yes. I have several kinds of frozen foods and leftover side dishes in the fridge, but I don't put them on a plate and eat them with a ding-dong. It is not uncommon for them to come home tired and want to eat something for which there are no ingredients. I am tired of repeating the same conversation every time without understanding it at all because I don't cook at all. Meals are more work than you can imagine, from deciding on the menu to shopping to cleaning up. I don't want to eat leftovers. She only wants to eat what she wants to eat. So even if I make a meal for two with what I have, she won't complain, but she will eat the cup noodles instead. This is quite annoying. When I ask her what she can make before cooking, she says she doesn't want it, so when I make it for her, she often asks me to make one for her because it looks so good. I used to make it at first, but I don't make it now.

There are many good points. But if you live together, you must have a complaint or two. It is different from a bad word.

Is there an airport delivery service that can send my luggage ahead to LAX ？?

Problem / Need advice

I am taking 4 boxes of cardboard boxes as checked baggage on my return flight from LAX.
Is there a service like Japanese airport delivery service （ like Yamato GPA or JAL ABC that allows me to leave the country empty handed ）
a few days in advance and send the boxes to the airport delivery service counter for pick up?
Is there a service that allows me to drop off my luggage at the airport courier counter a few days in advance and pick it up in LAX ？

I am returning home with one child and need to sell my car on the way to the airport
I need to take my child to the airport once to check in my luggage, then take her to the airport to pick up her baggage.
It is very difficult to get out of the airport and go to the used car dealer again.
If I didn't have these 4 cardboard boxes at least I could manage ・ ・ ・.
Is there an airport delivery service to send packages to LAX ？.

Recovering from a broken heart caused by cheating

Problem / Need advice

A year ago, a man I had been long-distance with for 5 years dumped me
saying he had found someone he liked.

After that, I was shocked and dragged it out for about 6 months, but
I managed to recover and live a normal life now.
The other day I received an e-mail from that person after a long time
I am really sorry. I finally realized how much you mean to me.
I'm sorry to be so selfish, but can we try again?

This was the content.

I told him that I didn't hate him anymore and that I needed to think about it a little.
I am also worried that once I am in a relationship with a man that I like, it will be the same in the future.

If anyone has had a similar experience
should I get back together or not please advise me.

Trial to amend Article 11 of the Nationality Law

Trial for amendment of Article 11 of the Nationality Law
Under the current Japanese Nationality Law, a person "automatically" loses Japanese nationality if he/she voluntarily acquires the nationality of another country.
Now, plaintiffs residing in Switzerland and other countries are fighting in court to amend this. I think this is an important trial for those of us living in the US.
There is a petition campaign on change.org to amend Article 11 of the Nationality Law. Currently, about 43,000 votes have been collected, but it would be great if more people would sign the petition. The next trial will be held in September. By the way, I am an individual and not a member of this association.

I feel like we are about to start a recession. I am worried every day about how long it will take to recover.
I would like to know what I should do to prepare for the future based on your previous examples.

I still haven't bought a house and my rent and living expenses have skyrocketed
I am struggling to make ends meet every month.

Please advise me.

I heard that alkaline water is good, so if anyone has used it, could you please tell me which product I should buy ？ I looked on Amazon and found Aqua Ionizer Deluxe $ 800, Panasonic Alkaline Ionizer Water Charter Pearl White TK-AS30 － W $ 300, and I am thinking of choosing Panasonic because of the price and the Panasonic name. I don't think I can tell the difference between the two, but since I drink water, I would like to drink something that is good for my health anyway.

Is it acceptable to enter Japan unvaccinated at this time ？?

It is not impossible, but it is like "wait at home for 3 days ＋, voluntary test negative"
（, if not tested, wait for 7 days ）,

If you are Japanese, you can enter Japan unvaccinated. Those who have not been vaccinated or who have not received a booster will only be subject to home waiting time.
To come back to the U.S. after that, it seems that all persons except U.S. citizens, U.S. nationals, lawful permanent residents, or those traveling to the United States on an immigrant visa are currently required to be vaccinated. Vaccination seems to be a requirement at this time.
