I’m Mac, the columnist.

Maezawa from the Corporate Planning Office here as well. > It would be helpful if Univa could prepare some kind of signal or standard message like that. Univa can handle the arrangements, but I’m not sure whether they have any staff who are particularly good at this sort of thing. I was surprised that Mac didn’t even mark the message as read, but I agree that this probably is the safest approach. Still, judging from Mac’s personality, I thought he would at least say something like, “We’re taking a break for now, but I’ll get in touch again,” and then reach out if he changed his mind. If he doesn’t get back in touch, I suppose that tells you everything.

I’m Saito, a columnist ♪ I feel the same way as Mac. When I don’t open a message, it’s about 80% of the time, and when I do have some conversation, it’s around 20%. I also prefer slim guys—those in the 40-kilogram range with a 50-something-centimeter waist—so I tend to break things off as soon as they gain weight. But if they ask, “Would you get back together with me if I lost weight?” the answer is still no. P.S. I have a feeling some people might say that leaving messages unread is rude… But in reality, I think popular women leave messages on read or turn off notifications many times more often than that. There are plenty of cases where actresses and celebrities have no choice but to give a man their contact information because of the situation, even though he’s completely unable to read the room… I feel like I naturally started doing the same thing myself.

I’m Paper Airplane, a male member. Normally, if someone hasn’t even read your messages after four or five days, you’d probably give up. So even if this rare person makes you uncomfortable and you wish something could be done, there’s really no way to change them. I think it’s best to just regard them as an extremely unusual exception and not worry about it. Whether it’s their body type or your compatibility, I don’t think a woman could ever tell them the real reason. I haven’t had an experience like yours, Mac, but there is one member I was particularly incompatible with who occasionally sends me emails out of the blue. We’re certainly never going to meet, so I have no idea why they send them, but whenever I receive one, it feels creepy. In your case, if you were on good terms until they got tired of you, then I suppose it’s only natural that they would keep sending even more messages... Or perhaps the sender simply doesn’t think much of it, even if they’re selfishly continuing to send messages unilaterally.

I’m Seattle, a male-member columnist. I don’t get that many offers, so I usually explain my reasons carefully before saying goodbye. 1. “I’m sorry for putting you through that because I’m so well-endowed.” About a third of my relationships end for this reason, so it’s become a real complex for me. I can understand how women with G-cup breasts feel. 2. “I’m sorry, but the age gap is too big and we don’t really click.” I can have an enjoyable conversation with about three-quarters of the women I meet, but I like chatty women, so even if she’s gorgeous, I struggle with women who just listen and don’t talk. The 18-year-old who looked like Minami Hoshino the other day was cute, but she was pretty quiet. 3. “I’ve met someone else I like. I’m sorry.” This is usually what I say when her demands are high but she’s completely passive in bed and the nights aren’t fun. Obviously, I can’t exactly write, “You’re too expensive” or “You’re totally passive.” She probably realizes it, though. I’ve also been left on unread by a B-type member before, so I can tell when things are over and don’t mind being ignored. Still, if you have the time, explaining the reason probably helps the other person process their feelings. That said, if you’re getting a lot of offers, I guess it can’t be helped. I think receiving many offers and giving people opportunities is better for the Japanese economy than getting only a few offers. You can write “big dick,” too. It’s anonymous, and hardly anyone here is really paying attention anyway. Looking back, I do regret turning down Minami Hoshino a little（笑). But our time is limited, and there’s no point in having more people on standby.
