Since this is anonymous, I’m gathering the courage to ask. Thank you in advance.

I’m Maezawa from the President’s Office, and I’ll answer as well. > When I asked to schedule another interview through the contact form, I was told that a second interview wasn’t possible. I’m sorry we had to turn you down for a second interview after you went to the trouble of summoning the courage to come in. It’s possible that during your first interview, we decided that you might not be a good fit for a dating club. Once that happens, your applications will likely continue to be rejected no matter how many times you submit them. > If I was going to do this, I wanted to date and devote myself to someone wonderful—someone I felt was truly worth meeting through the club. Is it difficult unless a woman already has some experience? Experience isn’t the issue. It depends on your motivation. Even if you had no experience, I think you probably would have been registered if you had initially told us that you wanted to find that kind of man here. I suspect you may not have mentioned it because you felt embarrassed. However, judging from your question, you seem like someone who would take this seriously and make a proper effort. If you’re truly determined to give it your best, could you contact me, Maezawa, using the form below? I’ll look into your situation, ask the branch in charge whether anything can be done, and get back to you with the result. (The “Contact Us” link at the bottom of the anonymous question box leads to the same form.) As a last resort, I could interview you myself, though it would have to be in Ebisu or Shinjuku.

I’m Saito, a column writer♪ I agree with what Seattle and the questioner said. At the same time, I wonder if there are quite a lot of women with the kind of mindset seen in Types A and B: “I get to have tea, receive life advice from an older man, and even get paid.” There’s nothing wrong with that, and I’m sure there are men who are looking for exactly that, but I don’t think they make up a particularly large proportion. Also, when considering whether you would receive offers after registering, you may have decided that the chances of getting an offer from a man were low, and therefore never went through with registering. Personally, I think it would have been better to be honest, including the fact that you had no prior experience. But I believe the interview is meant to assess things like that as well.

I’m Seattle, a male member. I appreciate your willingness to meet someone special. I’d recommend signing up for Plan A. You’re better off taking your time and carefully looking for someone you really like. I once made an offer to someone who fit the criteria for A. Since she lived nearby, I thought it might be nice to have someone to grab dinner with when we were both free. Unfortunately, it didn’t work out. I think it depends on the staff’s discretion, so don’t give up—try reaching out by email or whatever. You could mention “18:26 on the anonymous forum.”
