Overview
Daniel does not regret leaving his Japanese ex-wife despite viewing 2018 favorably due to securing a Japanese spouse visa and growing his YouTube channel.
Daniel favors younger partners based on biological impulses and family goals, considering his 35-year-old Thai girlfriend a better fit than his 41-year-old ex-wife or other older partners.
To avoid initiating breakups directly, Daniel purposefully acted miserable so his ex-wife would end the relationship, likening this tactic to underperforming at jobs to get fired or avoid tasks.
Daniel views relationship endings as ultimately producing better outcomes, analogizing relationship recoveries to stock market cycles.
