I’m a female member, and I’ve fallen for the papa (a male supporter) I went on my first date with.

I’m だて◎ゆめ, a male member. > I’d like to message her every day, but wouldn’t that be annoying? In our case, we’ve exchanged messages once a day in each direction ever since we started seeing each other. She’s not in love with me or anything, but I enjoy it. I’d recommend asking her first. If she’s busy, replying every day might be difficult for her. We’re both fairly busy, so we usually decide roughly which days we’ll meet that month, then work out the details as the date gets closer. A little flirting and physical affection is fine, but basically, there’s no need to play games. (At least in my case.)

I’m Saito, a column writer♪ I don’t know whether the man feels the same way, so please take a moment to think it through calmly. I think it’s best to show your affection only when you meet once a month. Try to behave in ways that will make him like you. I’m rooting for you!

Maezawa from the Corporate Planning Office here as well. > I want to contact him every day, but that would be annoying, right? If by “every day” you mean exchanging about one message each way, I don’t think that would necessarily be a bother. But ideally, you could ask him directly the next time you meet. > I’m feeling frustrated because I can’t bring myself to ask him when we can meet again. There are men who don’t mind being asked, especially since some women are like that. It might be a good idea to figure out what kind of person he is. You could start casually with something like: “I’d like to see you a little sooner. Would that be difficult?” and see how he responds. If his reply is slow, he may be the type who doesn’t like being pressed too much. If he responds quickly and is able to meet sooner, then it seems like it would be fine to ask him again. Of course, you should also pay close attention to his reactions when you meet—whether he actually wanted to leave more time between meetings, for example. > People say men don’t like being pursued. Is it necessary to play games? I feel like that applies to both men and women. It’s probably not good to do all the pursuing, so a bit of push and pull may be necessary.

I’m Seattle, a male member. Seriously? I’m jealous of that guy. Someone like him probably isn’t going to get divorced anytime soon, so give up. In the meantime, go to a matchmaking party to look for a boyfriend and take your mind off things. But whenever Roman-san and Papuwa-san show up, I end up crying over how poor my own writing skills are.
