Based on an experience I had recently, I’d like to ask what others who have been in a similar situation did—or what you would do if you encountered something like this.

I’m a male member who goes by Paper Airplane. If she invited you to meet again on the first date, I’d say there’s a good chance she’ll be willing to see you again. With B-type women, things can sometimes naturally progress to an adult relationship if the mood builds from the very first date. That said, B-types can be difficult for men to read. Being overly cautious isn’t always the right approach either, which makes things complicated. You might hesitate, wondering whether she’d be okay with an adult relationship on the second meeting, whether she’d prefer one on the third, or whether she doesn’t want that every time—and end up misreading the situation… The tricky part is not knowing what impression that hesitation left. So when you see her next, I hope you can relax and let things develop naturally without hesitating.

Maezawa from the President’s Office here. Thank you for your question. With Type B, we tell men not to make the first move on the initial date, because women may complain that it goes against the meaning of Type B. That may have caused some confusion. It simply means that if the man makes the first move, it could lead to complaints and go against the spirit of Type B. So if the woman makes the first move, there’s absolutely no problem with the man accepting, as long as he’s comfortable with it. Therefore, if you’re invited again in the future, there’s nothing wrong with accepting. Just keep in mind that making the first move yourself could potentially lead to complaints. Some women who choose Type B are actually Type C, but select B simply because they feel it would be difficult to turn someone down if they chose C. Technically, this is also a form of dating-type misrepresentation. If men started complaining, we would probably take action, but in reality, men are happy about it, so no complaints ever come in. (笑)

I’m だて◎ゆめ, a male member. I’ve never had an experience like that. If anything, I started out having my offers turned down and kept getting rejected, so I would’ve been happy to accept an invitation. You must be pretty popular too. I’m jealous（笑） Honestly, you probably should’ve just accepted the woman’s invitation（笑） But what’s done is done, so let’s look forward to making plans for next time!

I’m Kazu, a male member. Several times, women in the B category have invited me to pursue an adult relationship (intimate) on the first date. Even when I wanted to sleep with them, I turned them down if I had plans afterward. If I didn’t have anything scheduled afterward, I went ahead with the adult relationship. If I wasn’t interested in sleeping with them, I politely declined on the spot. My reasons were simply whether I wanted to sleep with them and whether I had time. As for “using the club’s rules as a reason,” I don’t think there’s any club rule prohibiting a B-category woman from entering into an adult relationship on the first date. Even if the usual understanding is that “the relationship may develop if you hit it off on the second or subsequent date,” various circumstances can arise—for example, you may hit it off unexpectedly well, or she may be short on cash.
