Unfortunate things have been happening to him one after another since we started dating.
This content is machine-translated.
I’ve been seeing a man since late February. We met on a papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan) site, but I fell deeply in love with him, and we’re now together without any allowance.
I pursued him very seriously, and it felt like he gradually came to love me too. When we’re together, we’re incredibly happy and affectionate, but…
Ever since we started dating, one unfortunate thing after another has happened to him… I’m in tears.
For example, he’s had several serious work-related problems unlike anything he’s ever experienced before, his health has deteriorated, he suffered a major injury that required difficult treatment, and his car broke down.
He’s been hit by one misfortune after another—things he’d never experienced before. He even says that maybe he should go through a purification ritual.
I love him so much, so I’m always supporting him. I’ve even written his name on a paper talisman for warding off bad luck and floated it away, and bought him protective charms, but nothing seems to help…
Bad things just keep happening one after another. It’s really taking a toll on him. It’s painful to watch.
I don’t want to think that this is my fault, but I can’t help wondering if his luck has gotten worse since he started dating me.
Because I love him so much, I want him to always be happy and smiling.
What should I do?
As painful as it would be, I’m wondering if I should distance myself from him for a while.
I’d appreciate any advice or opinions.
That was purely a coincidence. He’s just unreliable.
Gods and Buddhas don’t actually exist. You simply didn’t put in enough effort or pay enough attention.

Is the person asking the question bad luck for him?
Or is something attached to her boyfriend?
Why not go together to have a purification ritual performed?
Personally, I’m not religious, but I think there’s also an element of self-suggestion involved. Believing that everything will be okay because you’ve had the ritual done might help change something.

I honestly don’t understand what the problem is.
There are good times and bad times in life. If you love each other and there’s no reason you have to break up, why end the relationship?
Especially when things are difficult, stay together, overcome the hardships, and build an even deeper relationship.
P.S.
If being with you causes the other person to lose excessive amounts of sleep or spend all day thinking about you to the point that they can’t focus on work, then they may be in a state resembling drug addiction. In that case, it might be better to put a little distance between you.

What people call “luck” is really just a matter of how you or those around you interpret things.
Konosuke Matsushita placed great importance on luck and apparently wouldn’t hire people he considered unlucky. Once, while delivering something by bicycle, he was involved in a traffic accident and thrown onto the train tracks. With a train bearing down on him, his life was in danger—but it stopped right in front of him, and he didn’t suffer so much as a scratch. He took that as proof that he was exceptionally lucky and became convinced that he wasn’t likely to die easily.
“Luck” is nothing more than a question of which aspect of a multifaceted event you choose to focus on. People say that every crisis is an opportunity, but the same event can be seen either as a crisis or as an opportunity.
If the two of you have started dating and both feel gloomy because you believe your luck has turned bad, you’re better off breaking up.
You’re simply incompatible. That’s why you’re having thoughts like this.
