When a woman they’re seeing says she’s short on money this month, I feel like many male respondents would give her some extra allowance. But don’t they ever wonder whether that’s really appropriate, considering she’s a fully-fledged working adult who should be able to support herself?
This content is machine-translated.
I can’t help wondering whether they ever think, “How can she be struggling financially when she’s doing papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan)?”

If a woman simply asks for extra allowance without offering anything in return, that usually leads to us parting ways.
However, if she says she’s short on money this month and asks to meet more often, I may be willing to accommodate her.
I’ll also often agree the first time she negotiates for a higher allowance. I don’t say anything then, but if she tries to negotiate again, I decide to end things.
It’s a world of people trying to outmaneuver each other, so I think most men probably have their own limits to some extent.

Life can take all kinds of turns. I think there are times when people find themselves in a difficult situation.
For example, when men were in their twenties, I think more of them were short on money than not.
> I couldn’t help wondering whether someone doing papa-katsu would ever find themselves in a tight spot.
If you were giving a woman over ¥500,000 every month, you might occasionally think that way.
But I don’t think there’s much point in dwelling on it.

I think that’s exactly right. The allowance alone should be enough, so it’s only natural that her savings would be building up.

I’m Fuu, a column writer.
I believe my monthly arrangement girls are managing properly with their allowance and income from their day jobs.
(Though they may also be supported by other papas, haha.)
My policy is to part ways with girls who ask for an extra allowance whenever they’re in a tight spot.
That said, they’re young women, and I’m sure there could be all sorts of reasons, such as:
・They quit their job for some reason and haven’t found a new one yet
・Complicated family circumstances have made life financially difficult
・They’ve spent too much on going out or shopping and are short on money
When I think about it, I realize there could be many different situations.

I don’t think anything in particular. Since my salary is low, I figure things like that can happen.
If she had several other papas, I’d probably wonder how she could be in financial trouble while doing papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan).

Maybe it’s because jobs like temp work or food service are unstable?
You might be barely getting by with overtime, and then struggle when that work dries up.

Well, we’re super-disrespectful old guys ourselves, making offers to young office ladies.
So we’re really not in a position to criticize young office ladies for anything.
