A question for the male members.

I’m Flaren, a male member! ① I don’t think it’s much different from anyone else’s situation, though it varies from person to person. The number of times varies too. The frequency has nothing to do with the allowance per meeting. ② I prefer pay-per-meeting arrangements, but if someone wants a monthly arrangement, I’ll accommodate them. However, people often turn into “last-minute cancellers,” so I try to choose someone who doesn’t seem likely to do that—but it still happens. They’re probably arranging monthly deals with other papas too, which leads to a lot of double-booking. In the end, the rate sometimes ends up being about 1.5 times higher. (Lol) And then the relationship comes to an end. ③ There’s absolutely no need to change the amount. Instead of just saying “I like you,” try stretching out the vowels: “I liiiiiike you.” It’s like adding emotion by putting some feeling into it. Or you could try saying, “Like, like, like,” repeatedly. If they still say you sound too businesslike, they may simply be trying to act cool—or telling themselves that to keep from getting too invested in you. I’m jealous.

Maezawa from the CEO’s Office will answer as well. Thank you for your questions. > ① For men who are seeing multiple women, how much allowance do they give each woman, and how many times a month do they meet? Many men adjust the allowance depending on the woman. The number of meetings varies too, so I don’t think you should worry about it too much. That said, I understand why you’re curious. I’ve heard of someone on a monthly arrangement who paid ¥400,000 a month. I’ve also heard—though not directly from the person involved—that someone paying ¥600,000 a month ended up being abandoned by the woman. I don’t know how often they met, but considering how much allowance was being paid, I imagine it was at least once a week. > ② Is pay-per-meeting better than a monthly arrangement? With a monthly arrangement, the man may feel uneasy if he has to pay upfront, while the woman may feel uneasy if she’s paid afterward. If the arrangement ends midway, or if the woman is told to wait a little for payment and then can no longer get in touch, she may end up not receiving the allowance. With that in mind, pay-per-meeting seems less likely to cause problems. However, if a monthly arrangement with upfront payment is possible, it’s quite advantageous for the woman, so it may be worth accepting. > ③ When I tell the man I’m seeing that I like him, he says, “That’s just businesslike,” meaning he doesn’t believe I really mean it. I think he says that because, if I truly liked him, I’d say I didn’t need an allowance. I’d find it painful to lose the allowance, so should I lower the amount? I don’t think he’s asking you to lower the amount. It’s simply that your “I like you” doesn’t carry much weight yet. As you spend more time together, those words will become more meaningful, and eventually he’ll probably realize that you genuinely mean them. I don’t think you need to worry about it. If someone you had just met told you they liked you, wouldn’t you also wonder whether they say that to everyone? But if they told you they liked you every time you met, you might eventually start to think they really did. Men are the same way.

I’m Hikoki, a male member. You don’t need to lower the allowance, but it’s fine to say something like, “I like you so much I wouldn’t need an allowance.” Or, “Everything about you is amazing—I don’t want to lose you.” Also, men are happy to hear things like, “I fell for you at first sight when we met,” “You’re exactly my type,” “I thought you were cool,” or “I thought you were handsome,” even if they aren’t entirely true. Say something that conveys that you see him as special, even if only a little.

I’m Kazu, a male member. ① They all receive 50,000 yen per meeting. The number of meetings is decided based on a balance between each woman’s preference and how satisfied I am with her. For details, please read my answer to another question: https://universe-club.jp/help/questions/view/5293 ② With a monthly arrangement, both sides might feel uneasy about how often they meet, so I think pay-per-meeting is better. ③ I welcome being told that they like me. When someone says it, I interpret it as meaning that she likes me within the allowance-based relationship. When I tell someone I’m seeing that I like her, I mean that I like her as part of the allowance-based relationship. If your papa says the relationship is businesslike, he’s probably either shy or just being contrary. I don’t think you need to lower the allowance at all.
