The Original Post
Posting this here as I’ll probably never mention this to anybody irl. After graduating in December, I went on a solo trip to Japan for 3 weeks. I ended up spending over $10k and had sexual relations with 23 women. I’m only 21 and I’ve never had a girlfriend or been on a date or had any form of romantic contact in my life. I think I just got carried away due to experiencing what it was like to be with women for the first time. I recently got test results back and I was lucky enough to not have caught anything. I have not even told close friends about this and honestly I don’t think I’ll ever tell anybody.
What Reddit Said
Reddit users immediately called out OP’s euphemistic language and concerning behavior. Many pointed out the disturbing math: 23 women in 21 days meant multiple encounters on several days. Moreover, commenters expressed shock at the $10,000 spending and apparent unprotected encounters.
However, some users also noted the cultural barriers, with several mentioning that Japanese establishments typically don’t serve foreigners. Meanwhile, others focused on the health risks and impulsive decision-making. The community was split between concern for his well-being and judgment about his choices.
The Verdict
The consensus was clear: OP’s story about paid for companionship in Japan raised serious red flags about impulsive behavior and risk-taking. While some showed empathy for his inexperience, most were concerned about the financial recklessness and health dangers. This confession reveals the complex emotions around personal confessions and the reality behind travel stories gone wrong.
