“I got fired from my job.
I’m broke, but would you do papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan) with me?
Please do papa-katsu with me because I’m so pathetic.

No wayyy!
It’s the same for everyone.
Papa-katsu doesn’t work just because someone feels sorry for you.
No papa (a male supporter) is going to pay if he’s not enjoying himself.”

I wonder if the mind can really get tired. Since it’s generally considered nonphysical, what exactly is happening when we say it’s “tired”?
The mind-body problem has apparently been a longstanding philosophical question.

A little about me, too.
I struggled with it as well, and ultimately ended up getting involved with a dating club. So I imagine the women are also dealing with their own struggles and, as a result, have turned to dating clubs.
I’d rather not deal with anything too extreme or serious, but broadly speaking, you could say it’s a place where people with similar emotional struggles come together.
As we continue our relationship while supporting and healing each other, our trust grows stronger and things become more stable. So this papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan) isn’t so bad after all!
That’s what the woman I’m seeing says, and I feel the same way.

The woman I was introduced to through the club has canceled on me at the last minute ten times in a row.
I think a lot of these girls are dealing with mental health issues. But there are also papas who, like me, won’t abandon someone just because she’s struggling, so maybe you shouldn’t worry about it too much.
Actually, among the papa-katsu girls I’ve met, I feel like only about two out of ten seemed genuinely well-adjusted.
It’s not exactly the 2:6:2 rule, but my impression is that about 20% are seriously troubled, 60% have experienced mild depression in the past, and 20% have bipolar disorder.
P.S. It’s awesome that we get to read Mac’s personal experiences every time someone asks a question. I’d love to hear from others too ☆

Is this just another person looking for attention to kill time…?
It’s obvious to anyone that there’s no real substance to the question.
> “My heart is tired.”
> “I’m mentally exhausted.”
I think most men would consider that fairly normal and still be okay with it. But once someone becomes so emotionally unwell that it starts affecting them seriously, I think many men would feel a bit uneasy.
If she’s merely tired, she probably won’t stand him up. But when she’s really struggling mentally, it seems more likely that she’ll either stand him up or cancel at the last minute. Then, when he contacts her wondering what happened, she may not even reply.
Of course, some people will be understanding and get in touch later to arrange another meeting, but I don’t think there are many like that.

You can certainly avoid people who are emotionally unstable.
That said, no matter who you are—even in papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan)—there are always times in everyday life when you feel stressed and think, “I’m emotionally exhausted” or “I’m mentally drained.”
I think papa-katsu is about finding someone who can heal those feelings, someone who can comfort you emotionally, physically, and financially—perhaps even more deeply than family or friends. Depending on your compatibility, you might even feel that nothing else in the world compares to something this wonderful and effective…
