They were cute together, maybe as some said, if she dated a japanese man, specially an artist as well the relationship could work better, since they probably will think likewise and have more similars points of views, but then again is just a suposition, it could be the other way around as well, idk

single or not, foreign partner or not, I just want her to be happy, her personal life and choices are of her own, but yeah 7 years is a lot, maybe not in touch but I hope they are in good terms, I'm sure they have so many good memories and I really liked them as a couple
