Love For Rent Reloaded: Rent-A-Girlfriend or Restitution for Stolen Years

Ambitious young women in Mumbai, Delhi, and Hyderabad are striking "arrangements" with wealthy older men, trading companionship for designer bags, lavish getaways, and the financial freedom their entry-level gigs can't provide.

 This sugar daddy surge—fueled by skyrocketing living costs and social media's glossy allure—has young professionals whispering deals over chai lattes, all while dodging judgmental stares and familial expectations.

 It's a modern remix of romance, where emotional intimacy meets transactional thrill, but at what cost to authenticity?

Globally, the commodification of connection echoes loudest in Japan's booming "Rent-A-Girlfriend" industry, spotlighted by the hit anime *Rent-A-Girlfriend*. 

Here, heartbroken salarymen and isolated youth shell out thousands of yen for curated dates—think hand-holding strolls and flirty banter—without the mess of real heartbreak, all to soothe the loneliness bred by brutal work cultures and demographic droughts.

The series hilariously probes the blur between scripted affection and genuine sparks, raising eyebrows on whether paying for "perfect" love erodes our capacity for the raw, unfiltered kind—or just patches the voids of a swipe-right world.

But flip the script to heartbreak's invoice, and the fantasy sours fast. Take the viral fury of a 34-year-old dumped after a decade-long romance: she blasts her ex for "stealing her childbearing years," demanding he bankroll IVF or egg freezing to offset the fertility clock he allegedly stalled with empty promises of family life.


 Social media erupts in backlash—"You chose him, own the clock!"—yet her plea spotlights a brutal truth: in this era of delayed milestones, time isn't just money; it's the ultimate non-refundable expense. As sugar highs crash into stolen timelines, is rented love liberation or a devil's bargain? Tune in next for more metropolitan mischief.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Podcasting since two thousand and five.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
This is the King of Podcasts Radio Network, Kingofpodcasts dot Com.

Speaker 1 (00:07):
Love for Rent, Appetizing Young, Love for Rent.

Speaker 2 (00:18):
We're all a little depraved and debaucherous. Here is the
King of Podcasts.

Speaker 1 (00:24):
Two weeks for my birthday. Will not say the age,
but middle age is where I'm at. The praved, the
debatross is who I am, And much like some of
my listeners out here, appreciate you listening to the show
and being in the same mindset that I am to
be able to talk about these various subjects on a
regular basis. Wherever you find the show, Apple Podcasts, Spotify.

(00:45):
Shout out to my listeners out there, to my listeners
in the UK, all those out there. I appreciate all
of you for tuning in and finding the show each
and every week. It's awesome, it's wonderful, and of course
right here, King of Podcasts dot Com where you find
it all. So into the program tonight, we're gonna get

(01:06):
into Love for Rent, a series called Rent for a Rent,
A girlfriend and someone will looking to go ahead and
get back on stolen years of her prime beauty. We're
gonna get into all that very shortly, but I want
to get into a couple of other things that we
had just real quickly. Eventually, I'm gonna have to get
back to the ongoing stories of trauma and tattoos because

(01:30):
it keeps becoming a subject that keeps coming back on
a regular basis. And a couple of comments. I did
get in here, and eventually I'll probably get back into
it one more time, says, to see what happens. So
there were some in the last month that came in
and I should go and bring these up real quick.
From Free Spirit, they write, there are as many reasons

(01:54):
people get tattooed as there are people with tattoos in
my country at Denmarkt's normal kind of a sailor thing.
Even begin with even our old King Frederick the Ninth
was heavily tattooed. Vikings were heavily tattooed. It's also a
tribal warrior thing. No one was many tribal warriors all
of the world. Today, tattoos are a fashion statement in
twenty twenty five, is just trendy. And then someone else

(02:16):
replies back and says yeah, And now lots of people
want to predict masculinity by copying sailors, tribal warriors, or
even criminals. Really it projects insecurity instead, loll and this
is from Ron h eighteen fifty. He goes on to say,
I can't wrap my head around permanent skin markings on women. Natural, clean,
feminine skin is so much more beautiful and appealing permittive

(02:37):
body marking actually being a form of subconscious self mutilation,
because a trauma makes a lot of sense, a destruction
of beauty that attractive attention resulting in abuse and trauma
in the first place. So sad, And then replying back
from free Spirit, you can make anything you personally don't
like bad. That doesn't make it true, though, But putting

(02:57):
things into small boxes makes the world less, I guess.
And then another person writes in says this is from
Raoul Soada twenty twenty three. Huh just happened to be
on YouTube? This generation has a change of cultury. Tattoos
always been around. My era was military. Now it's just dysfunctional,
trauma and happy. Wolverine writes, ain't nothing wrong with that

(03:18):
great way to express and alleviate trauma. Exclamation point, exclamation point,
love it. I'm getting another and then one more person
in here writes, this is from Jack Felker. I'm glad
to get tattoos. It tells me who to stay away from.
I'm not without my own trauma, but it doesn't rule
my life, and I don't care to advertise it on
my body. Our trauma is part of us. We either
learn from it or it destroys us. Maybe that on

(03:40):
the line, Well, you know what we're gonna be doing,
best of where I'm gonna be going through the year
of the praise and debauchery, the praviting dabauchery. We're gonna
go through that again this year, and I know that
the tattoos and trauma thing will come back and rear
its head once again. So we will bring that story
back when we go through the year that was the

(04:01):
praid in the Patris. There will be a lot of
things to get into that I'm working on that kind
of material. It won't be just a retrospective like there's
gonna be a lot more new commentary to go with it,
because we're just gonna go and follow along and see
what there has been. We'll probably start doing that in
two weeks after my birthday, and we'll get into the
whole retrospective because around that time, you know, we'll see

(04:22):
there's anything out there that's necessary to do a show on.
But this tonight's program, it does have quite a bit
of material to work off of. So first of all,
I go to a couple of stories from India, the
India Herald, and they wrote a story about love for
rent inside the growing sugar dotty economy of modern India. Now,

(04:44):
a while back, we did talk about this kind of
situation in Canada where there were women students, young women
that were willing to go ahead and offer themselves for
a relationship in order to go and be able to
have a chance to have a place for rent if
they can't pay for it. The sweetest tattoo in urban India, India.

(05:05):
So this is the story we get from this, and
I want to justin Vanaier. So there's a user on
x that goes by Ambar talking about that the sugar
doy culture being extremely common in major cities and that
the culture is everywhere. College or newly working girls are
doing it to fund their lifestyle, which they are their
parents can't afford. So let me just play back a
little bit what she's saying. She is speaking in Hindu.

(05:28):
You might hear a couple of English words, but you know,
we unless you're Indian, might not be able to understand
what this is. But let me go ahead and just
play back just a little bit what she says. But
I'm gonna give you the full translation.

Speaker 2 (05:38):
I think, but man hot podcasts and their human trafficking prostitution.

Speaker 1 (05:48):
Article, so I'm gonna give you what she's actually saying
in the full context. She says, It's a bit difficult
for me to talk talk about this because I'm a girl,
and if I talk about this, people will really tear
me apart. But I listen to a lot of podcasts
about human trafficking, prostitution and what girls are doing nowadays.

(06:10):
So I've been seeing a lot of this lately in
Mirut and another bigger cities like Bangalore, Mumbai, and Delhi.
The college girls who are just juniors, the new batch,
you know, they're freshmen. We would say here in America,
they're going on trips with older men for their luxury lifestyles,
more money, showing off expensive clothes and bags. Obviously, social
media graze the culture. These girls who are just in

(06:33):
their twenties are doing prostitution like things with them pushing
themselves into prostitution. They're doing this just for a luxury
lifestyle because their parents cannot afford it, and they are
not thinking about how dangerous this can be. It is
so creepy to think that someone can do anything to
you and you were getting into this. Young girls, twelve
year old girls are pushed into this and they are

(06:54):
tortured so much, how badly they are treated. A girl
slit at every seven minutes in our country, can you imagine.
And college girls are getting into this just for money,
and I'm seeing this a lot. The person who shared
all these things about Bangalore with me for the last
video posted on Bangalore even told me this. And you
all should see that. There are so many podcasts on

(07:16):
YouTube about college girls doing all this and TikTok and Instagram.
Trust me, it's out there and YouTube absolutely. So that's
the story that's going on right now. This is a
thing that's gone on in India and it's not very rampant.
She goes on. Now, in this story, they refer to
the fact that a new phone, apartment, upgrade, designer handbags

(07:37):
tewition fees, every gesture has its decimal attached a recent
study estimates that the average Indian sugar daddy is worth
I'm sorry that doesn't come out right, but it's what
they wrote here, the average Indian sugar daddies. Wow, I
can just see it like a voluo of movie sugar

(07:57):
do d Okay, that's just long. I can just see
SRK as a sigurdaddy. Watch there's a movie coming up
for that. A recent study estimated that the average Indian
sugar daddy's worth ranges from five hundred thousand dollars to
seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars. I imagine that's in rupees.
With metros like Mumbai, Deli and hydare about leading the charts. Now,

(08:20):
out of curiosity, let me just figure out how much
in rupees that is to see the amount that is
at American dollars, Just for all of you out there
that you want to make sure you know what they're
getting into. Let's say five hundred thousand rupees. That's fifty
six hundred dollars. Now, I don't know if that's gonna
be per month. Oh, they're worth is five hundred thousand,

(08:46):
seven fifty thousand dollars? Okay, five hundred thousand to seven
hundred fifty thousand dollars US. That must be what they're
talking about here. And it's not in the underground anymore.
It's a market depending on demand, secrecy and silence. So
India's urban youth are trapped into a paradox, raised on
global aspirations but constrained by local economics. Listen, if you

(09:09):
look at a woman is living like slim Dog millionaire
and she sees all this stuff on her phone. Keep
this in mind too, that the phones now in India,
you know, they didn't have so many smartphones, and the
quality and the bandwidth of the smartphones available for those
in India that has been picking up a lot now,

(09:30):
so you know, they're caught up on technology. And for
some of these young girls now, you know, they see
what they've always seen in Bollywood movies and in television,
the traditional kind of portrayal of what men and women
are like. But then when they see what's going on
on Instagram or x or TikTok or wherever else and
they see the lifestyles that somebody women are living, yeah,

(09:52):
social media will then plague into their minds as well
make them think, oh wow, I want the same thing.
Instagram selles a lifestyle, salaries, can't buy college fees, Skyrocket
rent eats half your paycheck, and social validation comes down
with an EMI plan. So when someone offers a shortcut,
comfort and connection are one proposition away, some take it
not because they're greedy, but because the system is rigged

(10:14):
to reward of appearance over authenticity. Okay, I get that part,
but I still think it's the fact that maybe in
India it's a means of getting out of the dire
straits of economic poverty that they're in, and to get
out of these big, crowded, over populated places, to just
get themselves out there. And you know, for the guides

(10:35):
out there that have always had trouble getting together with women,
you know, I've always looked at it like this, There
are just certain countries where the men don't look necessarily
like great because you know, Indian guys can grow a
lot of hair, same thing, go the air, same thing
with Filipinos and all these kind of things. Of course,

(10:56):
you know, I mean there's a thing where men might
not be so attractive. But then the counterpart is that
the women are gorgeous. Filipeople women gorgeous. Any woman absolutely gorgeous.
Something to be said about the women that are there.
And you know guys that see these Bollywood movies and
been looking at you know, Instagram themselves, and they see

(11:18):
the women they can get. It's something to be said
about these guys that are willing to go ahead and
pick a girl who's been poverty stricken, family can't really
provide that much, and the girls in college and she's
trying to make a life for herself, but she wants
to go and be able to get by, make end speed.
And when her beauty is there and you know, some

(11:38):
suspecting guy wants to go ahead and support you and
bring you up and put you on your feet. For
a little bit of love and love and kissing, Yeah,
then they're going to offer them. So it's not about morality,
it's about survival and economy that romanticizes wealth but punishes poverty.
Society drags the women, they say in this article, that's

(11:59):
the seventh truth. Every time this topic trend, society drags
the women. They're called gold diggers, sugar babies, and moral
But the men, the ones who bankroll this, are rarely shamed.
Why because India still treats mail desire as natural and
female choice as deviant. So it's the old fashioned dynamic.
And you know, I'm surprised there are not a lot
of passport bros that make their way to India that

(12:21):
go find girls, because if this is the case here,
then there are women to be had. Just put that
on the map. If you feel like you want to
get your passports stamp to go over to hide Thereabot
or Bangal or whatever else to see if you can
get yourself a woman. Not just saying the system forgives
men for buying intimacy but crucifies women for selling it
because men and women are still very traditional. It's an

(12:41):
extremely conservative place in India on how things are handled.
The defenders say it's her choice, and yes, on the
surface it is. But let's not confuse agency with force adaptation.
When the only way to survive in a world built
for men is to leverage what patriarchy objectivies looks charm youth,
is that really freedom? The hearts truth is these arrangements
are neither empowerment nor victimhood. They are a mirror reflecting

(13:04):
a generation cornered by capitalism, craving connection and trap between
survival and shame. The thing is, it's, you know, a
real moral fight in India about sugar daddy sugar babies.
I mean, it's a totally new dynamic. It's as if
they're kind of getting themselves brought into the mix. They're

(13:24):
kind of about fifteen to twenty years behind the whole
deal of what we had here in America. So the
westernization as it gets brought there to the East and
India gets themselves involved in US as well, that sucks.
But when they are able to get themselves on the
social media and see what they get see on Instagram, yeah,
they're gonna get caught them in it. Two. So they

(13:46):
go often and say that welcome to the upscale cafe
and BKC. Barabad or Jubilee Hills. You'll see it. The
quiet calculus of class, ambition and companionship and public. These
relationships mass great as mentorship, frendship, romance, private, mediculously negotiated
like contract without paper. They referred to it as a

(14:07):
new moral gray zone of Indian modernity, that where love
has a subscription fee and intimacy depends on affordability. We're
no longer a society shocked by sin, but one that
justifies it selectively well in that traditional, culturally a little
bit backward society over there. Yeah, the women being chastised

(14:29):
because they're still meant to be submissive, and you know,
the feminist psychology that comes in from America and from
Europe and from other places that are very much modernized.
India hasn't caught up on that. I don't think they've
gotten so caught up on the whole femininity thing. They're
still trying to bring into some kind of empowerment. It's
like women's lib just getting you know, their way over

(14:51):
the last like twenty thirty years. But like I mean,
it really has been something like this now. Marriage wants
seen in stability now and competing with arrangements and are simpler,
shorter and less binding, And underneath all the glitter, the
real casualty is trust. No one currency that one no
one seems to afford anymore. They're going to say that
the sugar danty culture isn't a disease, it's a symptom

(15:13):
of capitalism without compassion, of feminism, without safety nets, of morality,
without introspection. Let me I do like that way it
was set right there, So let me read that one
more time. The sugar duty culture isn't the disease. It's
a symptom of capitalism without compassion, of feminism without safety nets,
of morality, without introspection. It's an interesting take. I don't

(15:35):
know if I agree to disagree with it. I just
think it's an interesting take. Now let's go on into
a story that also caught my attention in the same
vein about love for rent inside rent a Girlfriend. So,
now this is a story from India today that rent
a Girlfriend has become part of Japan's modern dating culture,

(15:59):
and they talk about how love, luliness, and emotional connection
are being monetized in a society where romance can be
rerinted by the hour. So yes, there is now what's
called rent a Girlfriend, turning love into a paid performance
in Japan. Oh boy, this is crazy. So now in

(16:21):
Japan's modern dating scene, you can actually book and pay
for it. It's the provocative idea at the heart of
the hit anime rent a Girlfriend. Okay, I you know,
if you're in my broadcasters podcast, I've been talking about
the fact that movies at the box office in the
last month or month and a half have been dominated
and have been carried up by the fact that anime

(16:44):
movies are doing so well. So Delta then be Demon
Slayer and Affinity Castle and Chainsaw Man doing very well
in the box office throughout the month of October, you know,
doing a lot of money at the box office. Now
does the anime called rent a Girlfriend or Joe Oh
Karishi Masu It's turning romance in transaction, leading questures, leading

(17:07):
viewers questioning what authentic lovely means that the world obsessed
with convenience. Imagine if rent a Girlfriend becomes an anime
that becomes popular mainstream overseas that we get in America. Well,
if they put a movie out for it, I'm gonna
prior watch it. If they have a TV series they
can watch and they got a subtitled or dubbed, I'll
prior to watch it, sae. The story falls Kazuya Kinoshita,

(17:29):
a college student really from a breakup. The science to
rent a girlfriend throw a smartphone app entre Chi Zero Misuhara,
polite charming. Oh this is a crunchy roll show. Oh
my goodness, here we go for a few thousand and
yen Chie zero Miszuhara, who is polite Charming and well
perfect plays the part of the ideal partner. Swelling on

(17:50):
que listening and intently holding his hand to the right
moments is performance package. Is intimacy and the concept might
sound bizarre, but it's rude in a very rural industry.
Rental girlfriends of uses existed in Japan, where clients get
paid to go on dates, have conversations, and never bring
someone to family gatherings. No physical intimacy evolved, well that's

(18:10):
what they say, but emotional and stimulation. It's a way
to ease loneliness and increasingly isolated society for others. That's
assign this genuine human connection is being commodified. You're telling
me that nobody's getting get on in these particular intimacy situations,
like we've had the story about the cuddling girls, or yeah,

(18:31):
the women that cuddle with a man in bed for
like hours on end, those kind of things. Do you
really only think that's actually happening. Let me just do
this real quick. I'm gonna go and play real quickly
from this story the trailer a little bit of this
of rent a girlfriend from Crunchy roll. Check this, by

(18:52):
the way, I have a girlfriend. Sorry, I'll fall in
love with somebody else, let's break up. Just when I
was speaking rejected Crest, she appeared before me. Oh boy, girlfriend,

(19:13):
he's hoa my girlfriends part of us. It's like to meet.

Speaker 2 (19:19):
You is a girlfriend from something I shouldn't actually fall
in love with.

Speaker 1 (19:25):
But but you didn't enjoy it, did you? Oh boy?
I won't play any more than that, but yes, I
can't believe it red a girlfriend. And by the way,
the girl that we show here in this particular thing,
you know what you want to talk about getting the
guys back into the mix of trying to get guys

(19:48):
out to want girlfriends and all listen, the sugar daddy
lifestyle cannot be left to outdoors. It's now being brought
into the into the rooms, in the twitch and the
streamer chairs. Of all these kids that are in the
closet in the basement and just not all any girls,

(20:08):
but this idea in their head they can go ahead
and get themselves rent a girlfriend. Oh boy, I tell
you what. This is something else. Man and Crunchy Roll,
who does a lot of the major animes out there,
they actually have a story. And by the way, you
can see the girl, she's wearing skirts she's wearing bikinis,
she's got a robe. It's like, okay in the anime world,

(20:31):
very attractive and you know what, oh man, rent a
Girlfriend an anime. I can't wait to see when this
show starts. Man, we're gonna have to talk about it
when actually comes up. Then you also have the ex girlfriend,
the assertive girlfriend. They're also in this particular series, the
shy girlfriend. So you have all these of it rent

(20:54):
of girlfriends being featured in this show in this anime
or beautif Woman of Women, trouble, and a useless college student. Yes,
the guys obviously are being made to be stupid on
this show, but yes, rent a Girlfriend. Oh this is funny.
Oh man, I can't believe it. Anyway, When they talk

(21:18):
about Japan's modernating culture, the younger generation's face intensive imni
social pressure, long work hours, high cost living, and a
culture that prizes career over companionship sounds like India. Isn't
this amazing that all this American craft that we have
translates over to other countries and they're getting caught in
the same bullshit. That's incredible. Let me tell you what. Now,

(21:44):
in the anime rent a Girlfriend, Kazuya and Chizuu rend
a girlfriend, captures this tension perfectly. Kazuyah crazy ofteny but
can't resist the convenians of paying for affection. Chia Zero, meanwhile,
is stuck between a professional role and her own feelings.
The show covi uses comedy and awkwardess to explore deeper
questions about loneliness and the cost of emotional labor. Now,

(22:08):
I can imagine we already know the action movies of
anime work so well, they do some other kind of
you know, award nominated kind of stuff. But imagine if
we get the wrong coms and rent a Girlfriend becomes
an anime as amas as a movie. The anime is
not just about dating, It's about performance. Every smile, every compliment,

(22:29):
every carefully time moment of vulnerability is part of the act.
As the story progresses, it becomes harder to tell whether
the performance ends and real feelings begin. The blurs the
emotional core of the show a reflection of how modern
relationships often mix sincerity with self presentation, especially in the
age of social media. This is incredible. We are now
at the point where we have animes now being created

(22:53):
to parent The Sugar Daddy culture. Why did I hear
about this sooner crunchy role. I implore you, if you did
so good with Demon Slayer and Chainsaw Man, you need
to go ahead and make Rent a Girlfriend a full
length movie. To zero, by the way, is representing the

(23:15):
ideal girlfriend, patient, caring and composed, while her job highlights
how such ideals can be packaged, sold and consumed. The
enemy uses a character to challenge very stereotypes it appears
to play into, and this is a mirror for a
digital generation. So this Rent a Girlfriend series resonates beyond

(23:35):
Japan and its familiarity because we live in a world
where beating apps produce chemistry to swipes, emotional connection often
feels like a subscription model, and the show takes that
to the extream and makes us ask whether love in
its mother modern form can be more than a service
rather than a feeling. Well, I mean women the other

(23:56):
to understand this this is doing in Japan, I'm very
surprised by, but I don't know if it's because social
media has also changed the women there, because the one
thing I can see from the Rented Girlfriend's series is
that you see the women they're not acting like they're feminists,
or being hard to get or being so much greedy

(24:18):
and materialistic. It's all those kind of things, Like you know,
the women are naturally beautiful, I would imagine, and the
way they are addressed, it's like, okay, it's a full
appeal on for a guy that wants to get into this.
And the guys that are being featured on this show
as the guys renting the girlfriends, Yeah, these are the

(24:39):
kind of guys that are going to resonate and they're
going to be very relatable to the guys. That's the
thing that's the most important thing to me is this
Renting for a Girlfriend's series. Rent a Girlfriend is going
to be able to give a familiarity, a relatability to
a lot of the younger people. It's like gen Z
is going to pay attention to this and they're gonna

(24:59):
be like, oh my goodness, look at this. I almost
would imagine that Rent a Girlfriend is going to spawn
more passport bros. Sprinkle sprinkle that whole mindset, because this
is basically going to endoctrinate more women into the sugar
baby lifestyle and more men into being willed to be

(25:21):
transactional and relationships and also be in situationships that can
be transactional. Maybe this is not what the story is
trying to go and do. This is for Japanese audience,
but obviously this kind of show when they put it
out there, is going to eventually resonate. Once it does,
everything just changes from there. This is a fascinating show
about this. Now, despite the exaggerated set up, the show

(25:45):
Sharp offers shark commentary on the human desire for connection,
equal parts funny, awkward, and unsettling. A romantic comedy that
exposes the loolin that's lurking beneath perfectly created relationships. Trunchy Roll,
I implore you and for those people out there, I
want to know what you think about this particular series.
This is incredible. I want to hear from you because

(26:06):
now I'm wouldn't be surprised if this becomes something that
takes off really well and goes viral. Rent a girlfriend.
I can see this show really hitting a nerve out
there where this animation it's gonna be something that guys
and gals are going to probably go ahead and replicate

(26:27):
in real life. Like it's already enough right now where
you have girls that go into cosplay in a regular
basis going in anime and the guy is also kind
of dressed on that same part. Like there's a lot
there where a lot of people are really embracing the
Japanese culture because of anime Andre the gate where the
anime brings. So imagine that this show hits on the

(26:47):
radar okay, oh, in the middle of you watching Death
Note or you know Baruto or you know One Piece,
and then you catch rent a Girlfriend. This is great.
I can't believe this. This is hilarious. I think this
is such a smart idea on the folks of Japan

(27:08):
at crunchy roll to even come up with a story
like this in a show like this, This is incredible.
I am totally locked into this right now. Dare I
say reet a Girlfriend is a concept for an anime
that is absolutely one hundred and fifty percent the praise

(27:28):
and the bochers, I completely approve, and I hope people
get a chance to catch this show. Oh man, that
is good stuff. One more story I want to bring
up here before we wrap things up. This is from
New York Post about a woman that is really upset
and she is thirty four years old, and her deal
is is that she depends that he demands that her

(27:51):
ex boyfriend paid compensation for stealing her child bearing years.
So the story from here goes that she was dumped
after a decade of dating, and they're not in particular,
they were not at all married or engaged as far
as I know, but a ten year relationship. So this

(28:13):
thirty four year old woman says she wants financial conversation
from her ex boyfriend for stealing her child bearing years now.
She wrote to the UK Telegraphs Moral Money Advice Calm,
saying she believes her former flame should pay now for
in future fertilization after leaving her high and dry. This
is crazy. She writes that he tells me he feels

(28:34):
that thirty eight, he still has an a decade of
enjoying his lifestyle and prior through his career and is
not ready for marriage or children, but he knows it
has become a priority for me, so he's off. So
her biological clock has been taking pretty hard, and the
ultimatum to have children did not work on him. She says,
quote here, I am at thirty four, eggs twitching, ready
for the marriage and parental stage of my life, but

(28:56):
an unexpectedly single and emotionally devastated. I am tipping into
the curious faith of the Greek cycle because I feel
as though she e owes me big time and I
wanted to pay. She then goes on to explain that
she made sacrifices to accommodate her ex's ambitions. They verbally
agreed that he would be the primary earner should they
have children.

Speaker 2 (29:15):
Quote.

Speaker 1 (29:16):
Now I feel like these compromises have left me vulnerable,
and I am seeking compensation. Surely he should have some
responsibility for helping mitigate the damage to our plans caused
by his change of heart and broken promises. And the
columnists here Sam's sitcom of War Money says that it
would be impossible to present a successful legal case for compensation.

(29:37):
Quote it's important to shift your mindset from seeking composition
from him to investigate your own resilience. IVF is expensive,
and it's natural to feel he should contribute, since your
shared life choices affect your timing. But Vias unwilling, the
legal system will not force him clear. There's that It's incredible,
But at the end of the day, the store that

(30:00):
still catches my attention right now more than anything right
now is rent a girlfriend. This is incredible, and I'm
telling you, I'm going to keep an eye on this
because this will be something incredible. And this is a
show that's been out there. How did I not hear

(30:21):
about this? But this, all of a sudden is starting
to catch attention. So it actually started in twenty twenty,
but now I guess the new season's coming up, and
there's already ben fourteen million copies of the manga in circulation,
so I guess we're getting to something where we're gonna
eventually see with this something soon, I would imagine. I

(30:43):
don't know what it's going to be, but forty two
millions of the manga so far, and the anime series
already has forty eight episodes as far as I know,
I don't know if it's been available yet in America yet.
That's what I don't know yet. So now it just

(31:04):
ended its four season. But I can tell you I
had never seen anything come up on this as of yet.
But this is fascinating and I'm surprised we haven't gotten
more about this. The other thing is that I was
also surprised that this actually came a story out there
that got my attention. After all this time, and you know,

(31:26):
forgive me if I'm just learning about this show. But
the story for India Today only came out this story
a couple of days ago, so I never even caught
this particular show on my radar until now. And I
don't know how many other people know about this show yet.
If you are obviously die hard anime, then obviously you
probably know about this really well. But just saying I

(31:49):
see this here and there are quite a few people
that are still catching on to it so far, but
it has sparked a lot of talk, will least say that.
So for me to go and catch my attention on this,
what can I say? I didn't know about this and
I'm learning along and I'm just trying to do the

(32:10):
research here. I don't want to be one of those
people that's completely stupid to this and say, oh, well,
you know, all of a sudden, here comes the show.
I didn't know about it. I didn't know, but now
I know about it, and I feel better for knowing
about it because now I have something that's going I'm
gonna try to go and catch and watch that I
did not know about. But I hope the crunchy Roll
people honestly will consider making a movie based on this.

(32:35):
If the other movies that you're coming out right now,
whether it's One Piece or whether it's Dragon ball Z
or whatever else is out there, okay, if all these
other movies that are coming out for anime are doing
so well, then my goodness, please put out a movie
called run a Girlfriend, because that would be absolutely the
Prey and the Bochers
