I’m appreciated by the people around me, yet I feel lonely every day.
Would I regret starting papa-katsu for that reason?
Isn’t there a widespread belief in Japan that happiness means working a regular daytime job and getting married?

Dear questioner, you’re mistaken if you think marriage is the goal.
It’s the beginning of hell.
Being independent, doing papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan), and enjoying yourself—that’s happiness.

I’m a male member and a total loser.
Since I started being a papa (a male supporter), my business has been doing incredibly well, and I’ve made back every bit of allowance I paid out—with interest at 10% every ten days.
Maybe it’s because wanting to look good in front of the girls has doubled my motivation to work.
They say, “Money makes the world go round,” and I really believe it’s true.
Those stingy, low-paying papas will surely—I mean, definitely—see their businesses go downhill.
I’m going to keep handing out plenty of allowance this year so I can make even more money♡

If you receive an offer but can’t continue the arrangement, you won’t receive any money either.
Love may or may not come into it, depending on whether the woman wants that.
In the end, it really comes down to how you look at it.
Personally, I’ve gained more people to enjoy my hobbies with.
Those last two lines reflect values from about 30 years ago—or, if we’re talking about today, maybe from the middle of nowhere?

Feeling lonely is subjective, so whether starting papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan) for that reason actually helps is also a matter of personal perspective.
You might end up feeling even lonelier, or your loneliness might ease.
All emotions arise from the gap between the reality in front of us and what we feel inside. I hope papa-katsu brings you a positive kind of gap.

It depends on the person.
There are as many sets of values as there are people. I think it’s important to establish your own standards without letting yourself be swayed by others. There are countless people who casually impose their personal standards on everyone else.
Personally, I think marriage is a wonderful thing, and my children are irreplaceable.
In papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan), what you get is something resembling love. People who mistake it for real love start saying things like, “This is genuine love, so there’s no need for an allowance.”

I guess it’s about money, love, and something to pass the time.
> The belief that happiness means working a regular job during the day and getting married
That’s a common way of thinking, but it’s wrong. Marriage, especially, has only brought me unhappiness. I never want to do it again. 😭
