I’m a male member, and this is my first time asking a question.
This content is machine-translated.
I always enjoy reading the posts here. Everyone’s unique answers are wonderful.
In particular, I’ve been a fan of Romane, one of the female respondents, ever since I read her very first answer.
What I find especially appealing is that she responds to questions about the realities of dating in a way that is sometimes cheerful and sometimes cynical, in addition to her impressive writing ability. Among all the respondents, I feel she is truly irreplaceable.
I apologize for directing a question to specific individuals, but I’d like to ask Maezawa and Romane something.
I previously saw one of Romane’s answers saying that she was thinking of ending her papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan) activities soon.
I had always hoped to meet her someday, so I felt I couldn’t just sit by and do nothing…
I imagine that, if we actually met, she would be a kind, serious person at heart. Of course, this is just my impression, but I feel that someone who was genuinely strong-willed and lacking in compassion could never write the answers she does.
If I contact Maezawa, who manages the anonymous question box, to say that I’d like to make her an offer, would you be able to pass it on to Romane? (I would also make my profile public when making the offer.)
Also, would an offer like this be a nuisance to Romane?
Even if I’m unable to meet her, I’ll continue supporting her from afar.
I’m sorry this sounds like a fan letter, but I look forward to reading your answers in the future as well.
I’m Rin, a female member.
I agree with Mac and Papua. I’m sure the two of you also pick up on all sorts of things when you actually meet her in person.
Even though I only see one side of her—the side where she deliberately adjusts her wording and energy to match each question and each questioner—I still find myself thinking, “Isn’t this basically a form of harassment?”
Nobody is pleased to be told in public, “You’re really like this deep down, aren’t you? I can see right through you.” If it were me, I’d be thinking, “Is this some kind of public execution?” and “Don’t act like you know everything and talk as if you’ve got it all figured out.”

Maezawa from the Corporate Planning Office here.
For something like this, rather than posting it here, you should simply send it directly to Maezawa through the contact form next to the question box. That way, I can consider the situation as a whole and get back to you, although at this point, it may already be difficult. ＞＜
That said, I’m happy to discuss it with you, so please get in touch.
(Some people have told us in the past that they sent a message but it never arrived, so if you haven’t received a reply after about two days, please send it again.)
This is just a guess, but I assume you’re someone whose offer to Romane was turned down.
At the moment, Romane’s policy is to decline offers addressed to her.
Her answers here are wonderful, so I understand why you might want to meet her. And if you do meet her, you’ll probably find her even more impressive.
However, what you see in her answers here is only a small part of who Romane is as a whole.
When that one part gradually grows larger in your mind until it becomes everything, it seems that people may end up feeling disappointed even after going on a date.
Of course, you can’t know unless you meet her, and perhaps you’re someone who fully understands that distinction.
Still, the possibility that this may not be the case becomes more likely, which may be why she has to turn down the offer.
