    This was a poignant video that touched me on several levels. I could see the deep yearning on your face for the father who wasn’t there. That the gentleman was so authentic made it all the more appealing. I myself lost my dad 3 years ago and my 21 year old son this year. I could see myself playing dad to a younger person- I do miss being dad! Lastly I could also use a father figure myself to chat with over a drink in the evenings.

We all truly do need to slow down and look around, take in our surroundings. Appreciate the little things and be kind to one another. A Very Big Well Done Josie ❤

    Thank you for sharing your exprience of renting a dad. It brings back memories of my dad. You were asking people what they did with their dad. I remember going on walks with him whether to the grocery store or to the park. He loved walking and he'd tell me about his experiences in the US Army while living in Germany right after WWII ended. He was there for the reconstrucion. I find myself wishing he was still here. I know it's selfish on my part, but I really miss him.

    I lost my mom in ‘16 and my dad a few months ago. I could definitely see myself renting parents because life without them feels so lonely and empty, and sometimes you realllly need a parent, no matter how old you get. But I think I might be even more heartbroken if I did because I would have to give them up after the day is over.
    That’s probably how these people make their real money, from the regulars.

    Hello Josie👋👋👋 This was amazing, I’m very intrigued by you renting a dad for the day, that’s incredible. Listen, I had my father till I was 19yrs old and he passed away suddenly, we sadly had a very tumultuous relationship, he was very hard on me both physically and emotionally from a very young age and I was his only daughter, the middle child of 3🥹 It was so bad that when I was told he passed away, on April Fools Day 1981 I was only upset bc I knew he’d left my mom with a mountain of bills/debts, I had just moved out of the family home a week prior to his passing bc our fighting was out of control, I couldn’t be around him any longer🤦🏻‍♀️ So it may have been the best for you never knowing your dad, IMO bc I had one but don’t have fond memories of him at all🤷🏻‍♀️ Maybe renting a dad in the US should be a thing I might just take advantage of although I’m pretty old so I suppose I’d be renting a dad only to be caring for him and changing his nappies for a day😝 JK😂😂🤣 TYFS, your rental dad seemed very kind and sweet, I’m glad you had an enjoyable time with him♥️💫✨👼🏻✨💫♥️

    Loneliness in Japan is real. It's just the way it is. Once you are not part of a group your connections are usually lost. Like if you trained in something like judo and you decide to quite, you most likely will not hear from those people again, or at least they will not go out of their way.
    Now imagine being a foreigner in Japan.

    With a new guy(dad) you don't have feelings, Renting a dad, even temporarily, can be a unique experience. It might feel a bit distant at first, making it hard to express your true feelings. Despite the temporary nature, try to find joy in the moments you share."
