Has anyone used Letter Date? A man told me he’d send me LINE Pay as a thank-you for a video call, but he’s asking how much would be appropriate.

Maezawa from the CEO’s office here as well. > I’m thinking of leaving it up to the man. I think that’s probably best. That said, if you’re open to meeting him, you could say something like: “I’d be happy if you could take me to ○○ for dinner, so if that works for you, I’d appreciate receiving it directly then.” That approach should be fine too. Of course, if things develop into an adult relationship (intimate) after dinner, it may become unclear how much of the allowance is for the intimate arrangement, how much is a thank-you for dinner, and how much is for this video call. You could also take a rough, overall view and think, “If I date this man, it’ll benefit me in the long run.” Naturally, if he’s stingy, you should make sure to receive each payment separately. It really depends on what kind of man he is. I recommend assessing him carefully and responding accordingly.

I’m Hikōki, a male member. As a man, I wanted an excuse to give her an allowance. If five minutes of conversation is treated as the equivalent of meeting for 30 minutes, then 30 minutes would be equivalent to meeting for 2.3 hours—or even spending half a day traveling to see her. On top of that, it’s efficient because the actual time involved is only 30 minutes, making good use of spare time. So from a man’s perspective, there are major benefits. And depending on the situation—if you’ve gone on a dinner date, or if you really like her—you may even feel inclined to give her an allowance equal to or greater than what you’d give for an adult relationship (intimate). However, if the woman brings it up herself, it can be a real turnoff… and it won’t be a surprise anymore. If I had to answer, I’d say that women saying “I’ll leave it up to you” is the key to encouraging men to give a more generous allowance. And even if you do mention an amount, it’s better to keep it modest. I think this can affect not only this particular occasion, but also how things develop later on.

I’m Kaz, a male member. I’ve used Letter Date before, but I didn’t do anything other than email before actually meeting in person afterward. For an online date, it was a 30-minute video call, and the club gave the woman a ¥5,000 gift: https://universe-club.jp/event/online-date/ Hopefully this gives you one point of reference.
