Why do single men without girlfriends at dating clubs choose papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan) instead of looking for a marriage partner?
This content is machine-translated.
I’m seeing a man exclusively, but I still find it strange that he doesn’t seem interested in finding a wife. He apparently does want to get married, and he sometimes gives me the impression that he wants to pursue a serious relationship with me. We’re far enough apart in age to be like a father and daughter, and I assume the age group he prefers is probably late teens to early twenties. Do girls that age do papa-katsu because they generally have little interest in marriage and aren’t looking for a marriage partner? He said he registered with the dating club because he was lonely, but wouldn’t looking for a wife be less expensive and more emotionally fulfilling? I once asked him whether he wasn’t looking for a marriage partner, and he replied, “But you’re here, aren’t you?”

Since men can meet women through an escort dating club, I don’t think they necessarily feel the need to pursue marriage.
To begin with, marriage and dating clubs seem to serve entirely different purposes.
If someone wants to get married, they’ll get married. And I get the impression that single people generally don’t particularly want to get married.
> Wouldn’t pursuing marriage be cheaper and more emotionally fulfilling?
I don’t think that’s necessarily the case.

You seem very innocent.
Please assume that anything you’ve heard was just empty words.
It’s better not to think that marriage is the goal or that it will make you happy.

Women you meet through marriage-oriented dating services are there to find a spouse. There probably aren’t many women in their teens or early twenties using these services, and even among those who do, most are likely looking for a marriage partner around their own age. On top of that, I imagine many of them don’t have a boyfriend.
In other words, the kind of dating or marriage partner this man is looking for probably isn’t using marriage-oriented dating services. If that’s the case, he might have a better chance of marrying his ideal type by looking for her through a dating club and pursuing a serious relationship.
Personally, I feel that the women I met through dating clubs have been more open and honest with me than the women I met through a matchmaking agency in the past, so dating clubs may actually be a good place to look for a marriage partner.

I’m single, have no girlfriend, and live in Seattle.
Getting married costs 100 times more. And if you get divorced, they take a huge chunk of your money.
With a girlfriend, I can’t cheat, so papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan) is 100 times more fun.
I wonder how that papa (a male supporter) feels about it, though. Honestly, his true feelings probably aren’t far off from that.
