Maezawa from the CEO’s office here as well.
Thank you for your question.
I believe the staff explained this during your interview, but if you agree to an adult relationship (intimate) after dinner, be sure to confirm the terms of the arrangement.
There are men as underhanded as the one in this situation. This is a particularly sneaky tactic.
First of all, he didn’t pay you the transportation allowance at dinner. The usual rule is to pay the woman ¥5,000–¥10,000 for dinner. The club also asks men to hand it over as soon as they sit down at the table.
Then, if he invites you to an adult relationship (intimate) after dinner, you must confirm the terms.
The reason is that Universe only arranges the dinner meeting. After that, it is a matter of free choice between the two people. So if both parties agree, a relationship without an allowance is technically possible.
In reality, dating clubs are places where people date in exchange for compensation. If a man does not pay, the club will warn him, and if he continues to act that way, he is not suitable for Universe and will be forcibly expelled.
What makes this man especially sneaky is that he gave you ¥10,000 in total.
Even if we tried to warn him afterward, he could simply say:
“I paid ¥5,000 as the dinner allowance and ¥5,000 for the adult relationship. She agreed to it.”
Then there would be nothing we could do.
He is being completely underhanded. I suspect he may have previously been warned that relationships without an allowance go against the purpose of a dating club.
That may be why he came up with this tactic.
He is probably doing the same thing to other women, so please send us feedback. It may not benefit you directly, but it could help other women. Feedback is important.
From now on, make sure you confirm the exact allowance before meeting.
If a man says he doesn’t want to discuss money, that is precisely the kind of man who is dangerous.
Also, if you trusted a man and ended up receiving only ¥10,000, complain to him on the spot.
Something like: “I never agreed to an allowance of ¥10,000.”
Since you hadn’t discussed anything beforehand, you might lose the argument, but there is still a chance he may pay you properly.
Of course, since you did not consent, you need to bluff by saying that he forced himself on you and that you will report him for sexual assault.
And although I call it a bluff, if he treats you lightly, you should genuinely go to the police. Especially if he did not use a condom, there may be evidence remaining.
The police may say that you consented because you went to a hotel, but if you explain that you became frightened partway through and told him to stop, yet he refused, they may understand. Of course, you must not lie, but it is easy for a woman to file a complaint against a man.
Someone needs to bring these irresponsible men to justice. Normally, once you bring up something like that, I would expect him to back down and pay the allowance.
I truly wish men like this would leave Universe.
Even if someone acts slyly, I hope he realizes that it will eventually come back to him.
You trusted this man far too much. I think many men actually prefer women who are trusting, but from now on, please do your best to protect yourself.
