I’ve used this service when I was in Japan. Actually it’s pretty good.
They not only have BF / GF rental system but you can also rent Parents / Friends / Grandparents / etc.
Basically , they have set rules within which they operate. Also, you cannot select the same person for the 2nd time.
My rented GF showed me some amazing spots in Tokyo 🤭

This is so so cool!!
More like a friend I guess, not really getting smitten
Yes , it’s more like a Buddy. Only issue with non Japanese is the language skills since most of them don’t speak English.
There is a video of Harry Jaggard on YT where he has documented his entire experience. You can check that out!

The world is advancing and various new concepts are coming up. One of the most interesting concepts that has developed in Japan is renting people. Most people these days have extreme commitment issues, probably because they have been cheated on or they have seen insufferable pain between parents. This led many of the individuals not to get attached again. Many people are also so invested in their lives, mostly professional, that they don’t even get the time to socialise and find real partners.
Loneliness often drives people to depression and to avoid that from happening Japan has come up with the concept of renting boyfriends/girlfriends. There are sites from where you can rent a girlfriend/boyfriend and they will treat you like a partner. Think of a human friend, who would hang out with you, listen to all your problems, dine out with you and the best part is they’re not going to judge you for who you are! The only thing is you have to pay them for being around.
People who have never been in real relationships mostly rent a girlfriend/boyfriend to see how this exactly works. And by going out with their rented buddy they get insights into how to communicate and make someone feel special. This would also give them an understanding of whether they are meant for an actual relationship or not.
