    Need Thoughtful Advice

    I can't speak to Australia/Singapore specifically, but I have a) attempted to immigrate to Canada, and am currently living in Japan on a Visa. In general, you may need to obtain a job BEFORE you get your visa. Countries often don't like to let immigrants in unless they already have a job lined up.

    Japan ministry age restrictions?

    I agree with GeekWriter. Japan is a safe country, though rather expensive. If and how you could be used will depend on the organization you are going with. I would encourage you to discuss this in detail with them.

    Looking for communication advice

    I agree with the posters that are encouraging you to find a believer to marry. The Bible indicates in several places that we should only marry fellow believers. See 2 Cor. 6:14-15 and Deut. 7:1-4.

    Second thoughts?

    FYI, it was the same for me. Talking my doubts over with a godly man who has a wonderful marriage really helped me get a better perspective.

    Second thoughts?

    Having doubts seems to be very normal and doesn't necessarily mean you shouldn't get married. On the other hand, being in love tends to cloud our thinking. I would suggest premarital counseling and/or talk your doubts over with a respected, older, godly friend who has a good marriage.

    D'oh! Marriage license problems.

    But that would be getting a copy of an existing marriage license. That is different from applying to get a new marriage license. :)
