That apartment is one of his investment properties, and it seems he wants me to move in because it recently became vacant.
The location is actually very convenient since it's close to my workplace, but in terms of the property itself, the place I'm living in now is far higher-end.
The place he owns is a 25-square-meter, one-room apartment, 16 years old, with an ¥80,000 rent. Mine is a 43-square-meter 1LDK, seven years old, and costs ¥160,000 a month, so I have absolutely no intention of moving, lol.
I've been lying to him, pretending to be a simple, modest girl, and telling him I live in a 28-square-meter 1K apartment that costs ¥60,000 a month. That's probably why he made this proposal.
Even so, I got annoyed because I felt like he was looking down on me, trying to keep me with an apartment of this level (no offense).
People here often talk about papas offering to rent them an apartment, but I assume they're offering places that are reasonably nice, right?

There’s been a lot of talk about apartments lately.
Has it become more common these days to lure people in with an apartment rather than by offering a higher allowance?
Women who refuse an apartment and men who want to keep a woman housed,
women who want an apartment and men who don’t want to keep anyone,
Why are the mismatches always so extreme?
Why not just earn the money yourself and rent one?

Of course. If a papa is told, “I live in a 28-square-meter studio that costs 60,000 yen a month,” he’ll naturally assume she should have somewhere better than that and suggest a place close to her workplace.

Since it didn’t seem to be a question, I thought it had been hidden, but then I saw that someone had answered it.
Regarding the part that says:
> “He’s offered to rent me an apartment, but I assume everyone is renting out fairly nice places, right?”
Did you mean to ask whether he’s offering to rent you a reasonably nice apartment?
I think what you’re saying is probably:
“I lied and told him I was living in a 28-square-meter studio apartment with a rent of ¥60,000, so I think that’s why he made this offer.”
If you had told him from the beginning that you were living in a place costing ¥160,000 a month, I don’t think he would have suggested a ¥60,000 apartment. (The man probably would have been too embarrassed to suggest it.)
I get the impression that your papa was simply a bit pathetic. He may be the kind of person who’s desperately trying to bring down the going rate—or allowances in general.
Cut someone like that off and move on to the next one right away.

If you hadn’t pretended to be naive and lied, you wouldn’t have received an offer like that in the first place. The papa is the one being taken advantage of here.

Did one of the respondents say that he often provides women with apartments? I don’t think so.
Since this all started with the questioner telling a stupid lie, I don’t think there’s any issue of anyone taking them lightly or looking down on them.
Could the recent increase in bizarre questions be because more people are struggling due to the COVID-19 pandemic?
