It is a known fact that no one can live alone and everyone needs to have a friend, a partner or someone to talk to. There are among us some lonely people who cannot have friends or companions, and others who just want to have a good time in good company without a high level of involvement. For these people there is a new trend that works perfectly: rent-a-friend services.
You can use your rented friend in any situation you want. You can introduce him as your boyfriend when the need arises. You can introduce it to your colleagues or neighbors as your best friend. You can play tennis, baseball, football, billiards and chess with him, read books, take a long walk or just talk for hours about anything you want. For each of the above needs, you can hire a different person from the Rent-a-friend Service Agencies. You can choose the person who best suits the role to play.
Rented friends are good actors, handpicked by specialized companies who will play their role perfectly until the end of the drama, without asking too many questions or unwelcome demands. This trend can be considered as a new type of social service aimed at helping those people who will need someone for a short period of time in their life and do not have the classic possibilities of having family or friends close by. Using the rent-a-friend service you can fill your social void and a simple solution to loneliness problems. A rented friend will not ask you about your financial or love problems and will do what you want without question.
We think that friendship is based on emotion and how it can be obtained in exchange for payment. In this type of service we are not looking for true friends; but agents who can play the role of friends or relatives for a particular occasion. It is a service paid for something you want. Renting a friend is not much different from paying the doctor to see you. The doctor will take care of your physical health while the rented friend will take care of your mental health, helping you improve your social life and your image in society.
This trend started in Japan recently, not too long ago. Ryuichi Ichinokawa, the founder of a major Japanese buddy rental company, said about this current trend that it is quite normal that it has started. The traditional ways of life in this nation place personal issues in the public eye when intimate relationships and intimacy between close relatives no longer exist. For this reason, day by day, more and more Japanese are turning to this type of service to represent family or friends at functions and rituals.
Those who have seen the man’s movie “I love you man” better understand the situation. In this story, Peter is looking for a friend to be best man at his wedding, but he can’t find him, even after some disastrous dates with some candidates. He finally found one, and his experiences and experiments with this person, some tricky bad situations that prove the emotional implications complete the story.
