She’s offering her two cents.
A woman in Mexico is advising other bachelorettes not to date “for free,” claiming she makes more than $12,000 a month as a stand-in companion.
The girlfriend-for-hire, who has attracted 300,000 followers across Instagram and TikTok, began her nontraditional career path a few years ago. She said her first client was willing to pay over $500 for her time.
“It came to me because in my home country, Japan, paid dating is something very normal,” the influencer, who is known as Kiirmy online, told Jam Press.
She began charging for face-to-face interactions and “going on outings” with paying clients.
“Not only do they benefit, but I do too,” the OnlyFans creator said.
“Plus, most people like it to remain private, and usually clients want to go away from the center of towns, so it really makes it peaceful,” she added.
Her fee starts around $540, but she claims some satisfied customers have coughed up thousands.
“It has to be a high price, because this is not something you normally do,” she explained. “It’s like a special occasion, and I encourage a lot of women not to do it [date] for free.”
Her online presence revolves around her work, offering followers a glimpse at her daily routine.
In some clips, she jokes about walking men on leashes, while in others, she shows off her date outfits.
In a video this month that’s captured more than 8 million views, the content creator gives a peek at a date with a client as they go shopping, eat dinner and watch a movie.
Her devout fans often applaud her work and ogle her looks, with some even saying they want to be like her.
“I want to rent a girlfriend,” one viewer commented.
“And here I am wasting time,” another said.
“My dream,” gushed someone else.
