Early-san is a young business owner in his thirties—an absolute top-tier papa (a male supporter) for papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan)—and an allowance of 10 is simply amazing!

Thanks for your question. I’m not sure what you mean by a reverse offer, but I have met women who liked my profile and reached out to me. I don’t meet just anyone—I’m actually quite selective. I’d like to say I don’t have many drawbacks since I don’t look bad aside from not being particularly tall, but I’m selfish and self-centered. I do, however, try to act cool and play the gentleman（笑） > Mac-san Nice to meet you. I’ve been reading your answers for a while. My allowance has been slightly above average from the beginning—around 7–8, generally (with a maximum of 10 or more). However, I don’t have an adult relationship on the first meeting, and I’m quite selective about who I date. The truth is, I’m still a work in progress as a business owner, and I spend a lot of time on my work and on my own things (I enjoy my work), so I haven’t been able to make as much time to meet as many women as you do. (Some people have told me I should focus solely on my business, but I’ve convinced myself that I work more efficiently when I have fun with women, since it helps me work harder.) If I were a woman, rather than choosing someone like me who pays a little more per meeting, I’d make an effort to be liked by Mac-san and meet him more often（笑） That’s also part of my thinking, so setting my allowance a little higher is my way of resisting the market rate. I’m sorry to say this since we’ve never met, but I get the impression that you’re similar in spirit to some of the senior people in business who have always looked after me. > Makeotoko-san Nice to meet you. I’ve been reading your answers for a while. Thank you for being my bodyguard（笑） There are also many generous people around me, so although we’ve never met, I imagine you must be quite impressive. As for the going rate, I feel it’s difficult because it comes down to supply and demand. In my case, though, it’s for the reasons I mentioned above. It’s simply what works for me.

Well then, I guess I’ll appoint myself as Arley’s bodyguard. I won’t snuff out a promising young talent. P.S. Nice to meet you, Arley. You’re young and handsome, yet you offer a generous allowance—that’s wonderful. Keep earning big and raising your allowance, and let’s compete over who can give women more! I want you to discover even more the joy of giving a generous allowance♪ And by engaging in this seemingly nonsensical competition with me, you’ll think, “I need to earn even more!” Your motivation for business will go up, and you’ll end up even richer♡ Maybe we could have dinner sometime!

If you say, “I’ll make a counteroffer because you’ll give me an allowance of 40 here,” I don’t think Early will accept either. Try winning Early over in ways other than money. ☆ If you passionately email Mr. Maezawa about wanting to go on a date with Early, it’ll reach Early through Mr. Maezawa. Explain passionately—almost like giving a speech—why you want to meet and why you absolutely have to meet. This is sales ability too, so good luck.

Whether the “early” supporter accepts your counteroffer is ultimately up to him, but… If you said, “I don’t need an allowance—I’d just like to meet you,” it would come across as genuinely wanting to talk rather than being after the money. But saying, “I want to meet someone who can pay 100,000 yen” can sound like, “I want a large allowance even for dinner only (no intimacy).” I’ve never met him, but since he takes the time to answer questions, he seems like a gentleman. Why not try making a counteroffer?

I’m in my 30s too, but in my case, I’m a “5” at best—and not exactly handsome. I’m not getting any reverse offers...
