Thomas 44y.o.＆ Ayaka 37y.o.
She was the one I had been looking for in my life.
I often wondered what it would be like having a Japanese girlfriend. However, as the years went past, I always thought it would remain a dream and nothing more. That is, until I found OZMATCH and met Ayaka in an OMIAI (first meeting).
Before I met Ayaka, I could not imagine how my life would change or rather what I was really missing in my life. When I first met Ayaka in my OMIAI, something just clicked and I found her both beautiful, interesting and easy to talk to. Though there was a little nervousness, it felt very natural and relaxed talking to her no matter what topic we discussed.
At the end of the OMIAI I really wanted to talk more with Ayaka and it did not take long after the OMIAI for me to realise that she was the one I had been looking for in my life.
I could not have hoped to find a better match for me than Ayaka and I find myself both fortunate and thankful to OZMATCH for bringing her into my life.

I thought, was this lovely lady really interested in me?
I was not expecting anything special when I met one of my colleagues for lunch. He told me about a boutique style matchmaking agency run by a Japanese lady, Misao, who lived in Brisbane.
I joined their online speed dating event. Soon after Misao contacted me to say that someone wanted to meet me. Wow, I thought, was this lovely lady really interested in meeting me? I decided to take a punt and agreed to meet her at an OMIAI (first meeting).
When I spoke to her I thought she was a kind and sincere person. It was then that I realised that this could be something that may change my life forever.
Since then we have grown to understand each other, be patient with one another, smooth over all misunderstandings, and gradually fall in love. We will be together forever.

I have found the one I was looking for on OZMATCH
.
Hi Misao san, I am back from my trip from Japan.
I have found the one I was looking for and OMG I am happy to the core of my existence.
I thank you so much for making it happen for me. I have met her parents (wonderful people) and they are cute too.
Thanks heaps for your thoughtful gifts. Can’t thank you enough. Luckily she was with me when I opened up the package. We were so surprised. Thanks heaps again.

We no longer have to face hardship and loneliness alone
We have both lived in Sydney for three years and had never met until we joined OZMATCH. It took us 40 years to find each other.
When we had not yet met, both she and I had to overcome difficulties and loneliness alone. But now we don't have to do it alone because we have each other. We talk all the time and we always laugh when we talk.
We feel that as long as we are together, we can live laughing all the time and we think this is what happiness is all about. We are very happy to have met in Australia, a country we love.
And we are grateful to OZMATCH for bringing us together.

Geoffrey 40y.o. & Yu 40y.o.
On New Year’s Eve, I proposed and she said Yes
After many years of being single, I found OZMATCH and decided to give it a try because of the Japanese personalised service. After a year of OZMATCH, I met my Japanese partner, Yu.
Because of COVID, we first met on Zoom, an OZMATCH Online OMIAI (a first meeting). After a month, she came to Brisbane which allowed us to communicate much better and progress the relationship.
Unfortunately, due to COVID we weren’t able to meet again for another 6 months. However, we talked about many things such as our future, so on New Year’s Eve while she was visiting, I proposed, and she said “Yes”.
Before I proposed I was nervous, and I was extremely worried about how long she took to reply but I was relieved when she said “Yes”. Now we are married!! Thanks to Misao san for the happy ending.

We make each other feel happy
I am indeed very grateful to you for introducing Tomoko and I. We get along very well and message each other and video call every day. I think we both like each other equally and make each other feel happy.
We have many similar interests and similar outlook on life and our probable future together. We are happy to be together and preparing for the challenges ahead of us. I believe we are prepared to move forward with our relationship.

David 61y.o. & Yoshiko 50y.o.
OZMATCH gives everyone equal opportunity to find a partner
Misao san, thank you for everything. It has been a journey for myself, and Yoshiko too. I'm an introvert personality, so it was even more difficult for me.
OZMATCH members might forget there might be years before finding the person right for them, just like Yoshiko and I. I guess my message to other members is simply to be patient and it will happen sooner or later. To be honest I was exhausted looking for my ikigai in life,.... but now that I found her.
Misao's advice was the most important part of the process, without that I would still be single and alone. This shows that OZMATCH gives everyone equal opportunity to find a partner, wife, husband. I'm confident your guidance has changed me into a more patient and confident person.
I'm compassionate towards Yoshiko and her situation, and she is equally compassionate to me. We stick together like glue, through all the bad and good conversations. Our feeling is.... "no matter what". No matter what happens around us or between us, the glue that holds us together can't be broken.
Though I haven't met her daughter in person, I'm sure she is lovely too. I'm hoping to discover a new life together, the three of us. I'm confident in the future now. It is all thanks to you.

OZMATCH helped me to find the woman I dream to marry.
First of all, I want to thank OZMATCH and Misao-san. You help me to find the woman I dream to marry. For many years I have been looking for her all over the world and I finally found her at OZMATCH.
My happiness is beyond words. Since the first day we met, our love grows from little flower bud to full blossom day by day.
She is beautiful, well-educated and humble. Most importantly, she loves learning. The world is so big and full of amazing things. To be able to learn and explore it together is really wonderful.
Without OZMATCH, all of this is impossible. I can’t thank you enough.
Also in every consultation meeting, Misao-san is always on time and gives me really good advice. Misao-san's professionalism truely reflects Japanese culture.
Talking to Misao-san is like talking to a family member. She genuinely cares about me and Aki. We’re so grateful for what she has done for us.

We don't like being apart from each other
When I originally signed up for OZMATCH, I really didn't know what to expect. However, I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to get along and talk to all of the girls at the speed dating events hosted by Misao. It was a great experience.
I know nothing is guaranteed in the future, but with Miho every time we talk and spend time together it feels right and we don't like being apart from each other.
I also think I'm lucky to have found Miho, she is calm, compassionate, easy going and great to talk to. It feels right.

I found my deepest connection on OZMATCH
For years, I’ve wished to find a committed partner to share enduring happiness. I tried dating through many channels but luck wasn’t on my side. It was almost hopeless for me, until I ran into OZMATCH.
Misao-san has great instincts and could quickly tell what kind of a man I am and what type of woman would match with me. She carefully listened to my needs and gave me invaluable guidance and support. Through her assistance, I finally found the love of my life.
It wasn’t easy to understand a lady from another culture or to communicate across various barriers. Misao-san and the OZMATCH team know best about these challenges, and they shared useful knowledge from their experiences to help me go through the process.
They were a great bridge between the Japanese lady and me. I surely am a lucky man, and I am grateful that I found my deepest connection here through OZMATCH.
Now I can finally launch a new happy chapter of life with my special. Misao-san makes so much happiness for so many couples, and we are one of the examples.
Words can’t describe how many thanks I want to say to Misao and OZMATCH!

I'm the happiest man to have met my Japanese partner
.
I went to a wedding earlier this year and friends said, “Mate, what are you doing. Find yourself someone and enjoy the rest of your life.” I thought about it for a month and decided - ok, I’ve been fortunate to have travelled a bit and found Japanese women very striking when visiting several years before.
I found OzMatch offered a matchmaking service, - in lieu of dating websites. I joined and viewed the photos and bios before selecting a lady. I hoped it might give me a chance.
The first online meeting of nearly 3 hours went quickly, there were occasional misunderstandings but I thought we got on well. I was thrilled - when she agreed to continue meeting me.
Our online meetings and messaging continued every day for a month - during which I realised I had met someone who was happy, a lot of fun, interesting and shared similar views on society and life.
After 6 weeks - i decided to apply for a single person visa into Japan, not an easy proposition and after 3 attempts was successful. 10 weeks after our first meeting, we met at the airport. Wow, everything I imagined was real. We spent 8 days together, the saddest part was leaving on that Saturday night.
I’m now returning to Japan in 3 weeks, for a fortnight (im working remotely) and my girlfriend and her daughter are visiting at Christmas. I was a little skeptical on meeting someone - on a matchmaker site, on the other side of the world, whose first language is not English.
My daughters, close mates and even female friends are happy I made a decision to find someone. But I'm the happiest one to have met my girlfriend.

I was too young to join OZMATCH a year ago When I contacted OZMATCH, I was told I was too young to join.I waited a year to join OZMATCH and meet a nice Japanese woman, but I never expected to meet such a wonderful woman on OZMATCH. Thank you Ozmatch.

I found who I have waited my life to meet
I've just booked a flight to Osaka and am already excited!!!
I've told Nico the main reason I want to go to Japan is to meet her parents as I believe it's important if she moves to Australia next year. If I were a father, I'd hate to have a daughter move to another country with a guy I'd never even met.
I was only saying to her the other night that I can't believe I held onto Misao’s business card that my friend gave me so many years ago. I joined OZMATCH this year and found who I believe is the person I have waited my life to meet.
Nico and I have been fantastic together and have decided that we are meant for each other. A very big, big thank you to Misao and OZMATCH for our introduction.
I can't describe how happy I am and I've had nothing but a smile on my face since our OMIAI.

I feel very fortunate that I could meet my partner through OZMATCH
She is intelligent, kind and beautiful. I met her through a Zoom call initially. Then I got to travel to Japan to meet her in person. She helped organise my visit and places to meet and eat. She is planning to visit me soon.
We understand each other despite the distance and we laugh and care for each other. We keep in touch with messages and video calls. We share silly Japanese emoticons.
I like the way she is passionate about her job, super caring for her cute parrot and that has a high-quality taste in sushi and beer. I love the affection and warmth we share and I look forward to building a quality life together.
Thank you Misao and the OZMATCH team for all your help!

I knew I had found the right person for me
.
I tried the online/app dating scene with limited success. I work from home most of the time now so the opportunities for meeting people are quite limited. The days of meeting new people at work or when travelling to or from work are over. So I had pretty much given up.
Around this time my daughter was studying Japanese so I started learning with her as a way we could spend time together. Then I came across Misao's matching service and thought I would try the free trial.
I was not very active in my search until I finally met Misao in person. She explained the process and I finally decided to put some effort in and setup my profile. Then things started to move a lot faster.
Misao is quite efficient and I was soon attending speed dating events and meetings arranged by Misao (OMIAI). But I knew I had found the right person for me after our first meeting.
I was reluctant at first to try a long distance relationship, especially during all the COVID travel restrictions, as at that time I couldn't even travel to Sydney. But I persisted as nothing worth doing is ever easy.
So from little things big things grow. We started texting online, then video calls every few days, then met in person. Now we video call daily and are making wedding plans.
Thanks Misao, you have brought two families together and have changed our lives for the better.

I’ve never met such an amazing person in my life
I’ve known OZMATCH for almost 2 years and I've watched that OZMATCH has changed people’s lives for the better. People have met their significant other through it.
Misao is a great person, empathetic, and has a very positive outlook in life. She shared a bit of her life with us and I find it incredible she overcame many challenges.I want to be like her in some ways.
She really is a great writer and I find some topics she writes fairly interesting. I will never forget her message「一期一会」as it holds some value in my heart.
On the very last day of last year, I was having lunch by myself when I suddenly received an OMIA request. Honestly speaking, I was not expecting it. I read her profile and was taken aback by the phrase “You only live once” phrase. I could not see her profile picture at that time but up until now I wanted my life to really change. I believe I have grown a bit since the first time I’ve been with OZMATCH so I decided to take a risk wanting to meet her.
During the OMIAI, I was really taken aback by how our ways of thinking are very similar to each other. Even our upbringings were quite similar!
We communicate everyday, no matter how trivial the matter is, I’m always amazed at how empathetic and understanding she is. I’ve never met such an amazing person in my life. Everyday, we feel closer with each other. Thank you Misao san !!!

She makes me feel calm
I never thought I would end up with a Japanese woman. I went to Japan a few years ago and fell in love with the people and culture immediately. I also looked at how the women were and knew a Japanese woman would suit my background .
A few months after I came back from my trip I searched the internet and came across OZMATCH. I reached out to Misao and we had a warm discussion about what I want and looking to gain from OZMATCH.
I had a few meetings and towards the later part of 2024 I met my new woman. My soulmate. She was shy at first but the more we did things together, the more she became comfortable with me and could see my true intentions.
I was looking for true love and so was she. After 2 months we started dating and the rest is history as they say. She makes me feel calm and we share so many things in common.
This was definitely worth my time and effort. OZMATCH helped me find my true match and forever love

I feel blessed to have found OzMatch which allows me to find a life partner
I created my basic member profile in OzMatch with no expectations whatsoever, just knowing that I am going in with a positive mindset to find my potential life partner. I think I was lucky enough to meet my partner in my first OzMatch speed dating event. (which made it an easy decision to join OzMatch to be able to meet her again).
My partner and I often talk about how lucky we are to meet considering the odds, because a lot of it came down to the right timing. I went through a lot of effort in the past to try and meet the right person but it never worked out for me, and back during those times I was disappointed multiple times. But now that I’ve found the right person, those disappointments were a blessing in disguise. Had my past been a little different, I wouldn’t have made the choices which led me to meet my partner through OzMatch!
In my OzMatch journey with my partner, in the beginning it was hard as we are located in different cities in Australia. Not being able to interact in person makes it more difficult and takes more time to get to know each other. When I went to visit her the first time I made a mistake of packing my schedule so everything was in a hurry and we couldn’t relax to get to know each other.
If I could go back in time I would use the time to get to know her better, rather than thinking of it as a sightseeing trip. When you don’t schedule too many things, you can take it slow and focus on the other person. I also recommend to spend at least a week if possible. I think it would be worth it! I got to know my partner really well when she visited me in Sydney in June, as she spent 5 days in Sydney and we took it slow, didn’t plan many things.
During this trip we decided to make our relationship exclusive, and a month later she moved to Sydney. This alone is a sign of great commitment from her side so if any lady in Ozmatch moves to your city from Japan or another city, it’s a great sign that she is a committed lady.
I think with how difficult dating has become these days (especially with online dating), I feel blessed to have found Misao’s service which allows men to meet women who are serious about finding a life partner. It is not a free service but the fee I feel shows commitment.
So for those who are still working to find their future life partner, please know that no matter what difficulties you face, it may either be a learning or a blessing, although you may not be able to see it that way now, when you find the right person, you will look back and be able to see the past difficulties in a different light!
You are in Misao’s good hands so you can trust her advice.
I created my basic member profile in OzMatch with no expectations whatsoever, just knowing that I am going in with a positive mindset to find my potential life partner. I think I was lucky enough to meet my partner in my first OzMatch speed dating event. (which made it an easy decision to join OzMatch to be able to meet her again).
My partner and I often talk about how lucky we are to meet considering the odds, because a lot of it came down to the right timing. I went through a lot of effort in the past to try and meet the right person but it never worked out for me, and back during those times I was disappointed multiple times. But now that I’ve found the right person, those disappointments were a blessing in disguise. Had my past been a little different, I wouldn’t have made the choices which led me to meet my partner through OzMatch!
In my OzMatch journey with my partner, in the beginning it was hard as we are located in different cities in Australia. Not being able to interact in person makes it more difficult and takes more time to get to know each other. When I went to visit her the first time I made a mistake of packing my schedule so everything was in a hurry and we couldn’t relax to get to know each other.

Things are happening very easily with her
Momo and I had another great time on Saturday, and we chat several times a day. We have committed to progressing our relationship. I'm very happy.
Things are happening very easily with her. I don't feel like I'm forcing anything, like I did with the ladies I met previously. With past ladies I kept analysing if they were what I wanted. The decision seemed too difficult and made me hesitant. With Momoko I don't even think about it. It feels right.
I sent her a card for Valentine's Day and explained how I feel. I'm committed to her.

She is an angel who has come into my life
We have been spending quality time together each week. We feel so blessed with how our relationship is going. We are maintaining beautiful communication daily. I have been building a good friendship with her mum and children as well.
Sara is a beautiful, kind, and respectful lady. She is an angel who has come into my life.
I placed one knee down. and proposed to her. To see the look on her face was amazing. I am a very lucky man. It was a beautiful moment in our lives. We have found a lovely home as well. It is nice to start life with a special someone.
Misao san, you are like a cupid helping people to get to know one and other. I would like to say that Sara and I see the great work you do, online and behind the scenes, as well. You are fantastic.
If it weren't for you and OzMatch, I wouldn't have had the chance to meet Sarah. You are changing lives. Thank you Misao for introducing me to my soul mate Sara.

We live together in Australia now, and we enjoy our life
I first met Yuri via OZMATCH OMIAI (first meeting). My first impression was that she is a beautiful, smart and nice woman whom I have been looking for. I instantly told Misao that I wanted to develop a relationship with her, and I am glad that happened.
While she planned to come to Australia to meet me in person, due to COVID she could not make it. However, we have developed a great relationship even in difficult circumstances thanks to OZMATCH’s support.
Eventually, we came to live together in Australia and we are enjoying our new life together. Thank you so much OZMATCH and Misao!

I am still shy but now I have someone beside me
I was a shy, 27 years old man who didn’t have much experience with relationships with girls.
I wanted to have my own family and become a good husband and a strong father. That was my dream. Australian girls didn't appeal to me but somehow I felt I could match with Japanese girls. That is why I contacted OzMatch.
My mum wasn’t happy with my idea of finding a future partner at a matchmaking agency. I understood why my mum was worried but my mind didn’t change and I am proud of the decision I made that day.
Early in the relationship with Ayaka, she sent me a video. She was wearing her Yukata ( a summer seasons’ Kimono). She was so beautiful and I watched it over and again. While being an OzMatch member, Misao gave me a lot of chances to grow and build confidence.
I am still shy but now I have someone beside me and that gives me strength. Thank you OzMatch. Thank you Misao.

I fell in love with a woman that enlightens my life
.
My journey began many years ago travelling to Japan for work. I fell in love with the culture and admired the people, the customs and the values.
I decided to take the steps that would allow me to have the best opportunity to find a Japanese partner. After some analysis I decided to try OzMatch. My journey with OzMatch started with the initial consultation with Misao-san, fine tuning my profile, the omiai process and the commitment to the process, and meeting a wonderful woman.
Looking back I am extremely grateful to Misao-san and the OzMatch team. It’s important to be able to trust and believe in a company that is working for a positive outcome.
My partner is special, and our relationship has blossomed into a lifetime commitment. We communicate daily and we are bringing our individual lives together and creating a connection that we only understand, appreciate and respect. I fell in love with a woman that enlightens my life, brings me adventure and we have common values.
Thank you Misao-san, you were able to provide us a safe and welcoming environment that allowed us to be ourselves and to connect. We will be forever grateful.

II never knew that feeling of certainty could be so real until I met her
At the start, I was nervous about how things would unfold. But now, I look forward to our conversations more than anything.
Every morning and night, I find myself eager to hear from her, to share my day, and to listen to hers. It’s this routine, this connection, that has grown so meaningful to me.
It’s funny how, at first, we seek something uncertain, but after time, we realize we were already looking for each other all along.
That’s how I feel about her—I’ve found the one. I never knew that feeling of certainty could be so real until I met her. It sounds cliché, but it feels true: she completes me.

I am madly in love with my partner, and my life has started anew.
My partner and I have been communicating for over a year, and I am sincerely grateful for the opportunity provided by OzMatch to meet my partner. When I first started looking, I was unsure if I would find someone who would want a man my age and have been blessed with a lady who accepts me for who I am.
During the past twelve months we have continued to talk every night for around two hours and catch up every now and then through video. We have a mutual agreement whereby we respect each other’s time.
We made plans for activities together, with only one hour time difference, my 12-midday lunch is my partner’s 1 o’clock lunch and we agreed to meet and share sushi through a video, this was a wonderful way to share lunch together though we were thousands of kilometers apart.
We stayed up together to wish for the new year; we rose early to see one of the first sunsets of the year, last new year. A year has passed since then and this year we will share a sunrise together in the same country.
When we first started chatting over a year ago, we both agreed we would like to move slowly and learn to understand each other, our likes and dislikes, the things we have in common and the things we want to learn anew, our lives have come together slowly and for this we are both grateful, as it has solidified our relationship and commitment to each other.
I proposed to my partner and was extremely happy to hear Yes. We are now planning our wedding and future together and everything that involves moving a partner from Japan to Australia. We hear of the different paces that couples come together on OzMatch and I can honestly say this is a personal journey each couple will take, and our example should not be seen as the proper or only way for this to happen.
I am madly in love with my partner, and my life has started anew. As a man I have committed to learning the language so I can chat with my partner’s parents, this is part of my commitment to my partner and our relationship. While learning the language, one also learns the culture and through the culture you learn to understand your partner in ways you will never know without the language.
I thoroughly recommend you take the plunge if you haven’t, it will also improve your memory and mental faculties. As I write this on my partner’s computer sitting here in Japan with my partner sitting by my side, my mind can only think of the joy and happiness of the years to come.
I am truly grateful to my partner, her parents, OzMatch and Buhdda for bringing our paths together.

I can’t believe we have found each other !
At first, when I joined OZMATCH I was looking for a Japanese girl living in Australia rather than Japan. I believe it was after the second consultation with Misao that she asked me to open my thoughts to someone based in Japan.
I spoke about my concerns but she quickly put me at ease with her explanations. So I decided to be open and meet someone living in Japan.
Usually in the past I might have been a little worried about being apart for so long but when I talk to her each night it just makes me so happy that I can share what I have been doing each day and also what I have been thinking about.
When I'm sad I think of her and she gives me energy to move on and do things. I feel so lucky to have met her and I am just so thankful for the whole situation. I can’t believe we have found each other !

She is far more than I had ever hoped for!
Misao-chan, I want to thank you from the depths of my heart for introducing me to this wonderful woman.
She is far more than I had ever hoped for! And that's honestly not just seeing her through "rose tinted glasses".
We have amazingly similar minds and views on the world. Each time I spoke with her over the past week, I have been surprised and delighted to hear her thoughts and ideas and how closely we relate on many levels.
She is also smart, funny, honest, caring, thoughtful, courageous.. and very beautiful in many ways. She is everything I was looking for and more.
My faith in a higher power is now stronger than ever.. and maybe I am falling in love too... (on second thought, yes I am.

I have no doubt that I will meet my life partner soon at OZMATCH
When I had a consultation with Misao-san, I was really impressed by how kind and helpful she was. During the consultation, she gave me sincere advice on my worries and difficulties, just like a big sister, and I really appreciated that.
She is very quick to respond and takes care of her members with a sense of responsibility. I haven't found my life partner yet, but I have no doubt that I will meet my life partner soon at OZMATCH, where they treat me like family.

Misao is very warm, intelligent, sincere, emotionally astute and skillful
I would like to thank Misao san and OZMATCH support team for helping me on this journey.
I was of course extremely skeptical at the onset, but after meeting Misao on Zoom all my fears soon dissipated.
Misao is very warm, very intelligent, sincere, emotionally astute, caring, hardworking and skillful at her trade. Without her help I wouldn’t be where I am today romantically.
I pretty much met someone amazing within a month of joining and we are getting to know each other very well and have trips planned to Japan and Australia respectively.
Personally I think a culturally diverse relationship is the best thing I’ve ever done! It’s really fun. I believe I have a friend for life with Misao san and have no reservations in recommending OZMATCH to anyone.
Stop wondering and do it!

Misao-san doesn't treat you like a number
I've been on multiple dates but I haven't been able to find the right one. I was starting to accept the fact that I'll either never find someone or it will take a long time. I then stumbled across OZMATCH.
At first, I was very hesitant. Am I willing to spend so much money to rely on someone else to find someone for me? However, It's worth it. Misao-san truly cares about her clients, Australian or Japanese.
She doesn't treat you like a number and keeps in touch with everyone for updates and even offers advice. She's very good at what she does and is willing to go above and beyond to ensure everyone's happiness such as organising online events etc.
I have full confidence that Misao-san can help people find true love.

OZMATCH has been a wonderfully supportive and enjoyable experience for me.
After years of frustration with online dating, I feel that OZMATCH is a very friendly community, with careful guidance and a great support network. There are many opportunities to speak to lovely people and I’m very happy to be part of such a comfortable and warm service.
I definitely recommend OZMATCH to anyone who has not yet found their perfect match and could benefit from professional and quality service.
