It's kind of saddening seeing people fall in love with pixels :l
That's why I facepalm everytime I try to play Maplestory.

Not much of an accomplishment feeling like you're above pixels.
And this can't be healthy for any future -real- relationships.

The thing is that pixeled characters are part of imagination, they will always agree with you and don't really harm you in any way.
Real people, in contrast, may not have your best interests at heart, depending on who you are with.
Which is kind of sad but it's reality, what can you expect?

Let them be like that. It's not like them dating pixels will ever harm us (right?). If it makes these guys happy, whatever the associated problem they might have, do people have the right to deny them that? Albeit it does separate them from reality, even if it's a bit.
Other than that, watch as the new, better dating sims make them dump their old virtual girlfriends.

Why would a man choose a virtual girl? The girls in Japan are much prettier!

Because they can't get them? Or Japanese girls prefer foreigners? (Gaijin?)
Probably why their birth rate is meh.

I read a bad joke somewhere I forgot where but it goes like...
"Japanese girls marry the Japanese men for their money(stereotype?)
Then they divorce make their way over to the U.S. for... yah"

well, this might be why japan's population growth rate is negative currently. by 2050 japan's population will be halved if this continues

I went to Japan, and...that really isn't the case. Not to offend any Japanese girls here.

Very strange that they're encouraging this, but hotels gotta make money right?
Still a shame that so many men are doing this...
