Please advise.

I’m Tetsu, a male member. Three months, huh? As you pointed out, maybe he simply got bored. There’s nothing wrong with contacting him on LINE, but if he doesn’t read your messages or leaves them on read, it’s best not to pursue him too much. Unless the papa (a male supporter) has been busy or has scaled back his activities, it’s better not to dig too deeply into why he’s been in touch less often. Even if you find out the reason, all that may be left is sadness. It’s better to accept that it just wasn’t meant to be and look for a new connection.

Maezawa from the President’s Office here, answering your question as well. Thank you for your question. If he’s only been messaging you less often, you’re still in contact and your relationship seems to be continuing, so I don’t think there’s anything wrong with reaching out. That said, it may be a good idea to set a limit for yourself—such as messaging no more than once a day, not counting replies—so you don’t overdo it. When you meet, you could also ask him whether you’ve been messaging too frequently. Men are all different. Some like to stay in touch regularly, while others only want to message when they’re making plans to meet. Basically, you need to gauge things carefully so you don’t make him uncomfortable.

I’m Kazu, a male member. It’s annoying when someone keeps contacting me regularly via LINE or similar—even just for everyday conversation—when I haven’t replied. That said, when I think about it, there have been women I stopped wanting to meet—not because I got bored with them, but because our LINE conversations gradually became less frequent. So far, though, I’ve never gotten bored with anyone I’ve continued seeing. In my case, when I stopped contacting a woman I’d met three or more times, it was usually because she seemed to be drawing a line at how close we could become, or because the sex wasn’t that great. Rather than contacting him regularly, I think it would be better to send your papa (a male supporter) something he might be interested in. If he replies, continue the LINE conversation; if he doesn’t, wait a few months and try again. Alternatively, if you feel the relationship is about to fade out, you could directly ask your papa what he feels is lacking. Personally, I like straightforward women who are willing to take that kind of bold approach. If she asked me directly what was bothering me, I’d be honest about how I felt.
