How can papas maintain such a transactional relationship so easily?

Maezawa from the President’s Office here. Thank you for your question. Why not register with Universe and try seeing a papa (a male supporter)? I’m sure there are men who will treat you kindly, as well as men who are looking for a long-term relationship. I believe there are men who will continue to treat you well over the long term. As you gain more experience, you’ll gradually start to understand what works for you. If you’re worried about what will happen when the relationship ends, it’s the same with ordinary romantic relationships. I don’t think you should start something while already thinking about how it might end. That said, it’s important to recognize that everything eventually comes to an end.

I’m Kamihikōki, a male member. I’ve never been a counselor myself, so I can’t say for sure, but isn’t it perfectly natural to fall in love with a mentor—including a counselor? If you regularly turn to someone you look up to for advice on all kinds of things, it’s only natural for a young woman to develop feelings for him because she respects him, especially compared with the other men around her. It’s completely natural to want to date or marry a man you genuinely admire. As for how long those feelings will last, or whether it will lead to marriage, the man can make that judgment calmly. You don’t need to force yourself to suppress your feelings. I’ve had a similar experience myself. At first, the woman I advised didn’t see me as a romantic prospect at all, but as we continued talking, she developed feelings for me too. We started dating and got engaged, and I became close with her parents with the intention of marrying her. In the end, though, after considering various aspects of what married life would be like, I decided not to go through with it. I’m now with my long-term girlfriend. Being respected is something truly precious and valuable to the person receiving it—valuable enough to leave them feeling grateful for the rest of their life. There may also be men who have been in a similar situation to yours, or who can understand how you feel, so you never know where you might meet someone like that. Whether it’s someone around you, through papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan), or at a dating club, I hope you meet a man somewhere who makes you feel comfortable enough to open up and who will genuinely listen to you.
