so i was watching this video which was funny af but it made me think
You are surrounded by millions of people, shops, restaurants and entertainment venues that cater to any kind of niche/interest you can imagine — the city is literally a living organism and the people are the cells keeping it alive — and yet there is a sense of loneliness you can't help but feel when wondering the streets. So many people are craving for human connection but they have to resort to making a financial transaction to do so whether that's a result of Japanese culture (pressure to conform to society, overly polite to the point of shyness) or just their lives being consumed by work.
The guy asks both a question "why do japanese people rent gfs/friends etc" the girl responded with a BLUEPILL question such as "well japanese people are shy" while the obese guy goes more indepth, talking about how japanese people really don't have time to do any of that, It's kinda wild how both of them both understand their society enough to get the reason their part-time jobs exist. It's crazy how that kind of loneliness is accepted and understood out there and both of them are making a side hustle out of filling a social void. I'm mad impressed that both of them just gave the guy the lowdown on how lonely Japanese people are worthy of a university article.
Fat homie admits that his job niche comes from the fact that people are so busy with school and work that they don't have the time to do something as basic as eating with their families or others. The girlfriend has a job because Japanese people are shy and either need a rehearsal for a relationship or need the artificial validation of a girl's company, also more than likely because they are too damn busy to form a real relationship.
Both are there for a pay-to-play ego boost in a society driven by money and capitalism. I mean, you can go to a restaurant if you're hungry, a bar if you need a drink, and your preferred form of sex work if you're horny, but it's not a normal thing in a lot of places to hire someone to spend a few hours with you having a conversation or just going on a date.It's strange how a lot of places are alike in how we all spend so much time working that we don't have the time to form relationships, yet that loneliness or yearning for basic human companionship is seen as strange, let alone spending money to try and negate it.
I still wanna go to japan tho
