The women I’ve continued with on a monthly arrangement are mostly fun, cheerful people who work regular day jobs—office workers, nurses, dental hygienists, and so on.
Some were single mothers who seemed to have had a difficult time raising their children, but when we met, they were bright and enjoyable to be around, so those arrangements continued.
Since it costs money, it won’t continue unless it’s fun for both of us.
So I probably couldn’t do it with someone like the person asking this question—someone with an aura of unhappiness or emotional instability. It just wouldn’t be enjoyable.

> Do people who were raised in loving, stable families also do papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan)?
People who were raised in loving, stable families do come in for interviews, so I assume they do.
I think everyone has their own reasons.
To give another example, some married women say it’s because their husbands no longer show them attention (in that way).
But there have also been women who still have a normal intimate relationship with their husbands and participate anyway, so the reasons really do vary from person to person.
I don’t think it’s right to assume there’s one specific reason or label people that way.

Since this morning, I’ve been eating breakfast while my wife hurls such “words of wisdom” as, “I can feel the murderous intent,” “I’ll never forget this grudge for the rest of my life,” and “I swear I’m going to kill this guy.” I’m Paper Airplane.
I think people will do it if they feel the need or become interested.

I found myself wondering whether I became an answerer because I didn’t have a typical upbringing.
After thinking about it, though, maybe it’s because when you compare yourself to people who’ve had it worse, your own troubles and background don’t seem so significant—but when you compare yourself to people whose lives shine brighter than yours, you end up feeling miserable. Could that be it?

There may have been more people like you at first, but as papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan) became more mainstream, people from more ordinary backgrounds started joining as well.
I also think men tend to look for women who grew up in relatively normal environments whenever possible.
After all, not many people would actively want to date a woman with serious emotional issues...

This is only based on the women I’ve met, so it doesn’t apply to everyone, but…
I’ve generally had better experiences meeting women who have good relationships with their families than those who don’t.

If the questioner had had enough money, they probably wouldn’t have turned to papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan) to earn it.
Even people in similar circumstances can be happy or unhappy, and some choose papa-katsu while others don’t.

After all, they’re still just other people, so I can’t claim to know them that deeply, but some women do have good relationships with their parents. Others enjoy spending time with their high school or college friends.
I think it simply means you happened to be in that kind of environment.
