Alternative Fashion: New concept of living to rent a boyfriend to go shopping

On Sunday, Xu Jiahui was always bustling, and the people of the company had their eyes shining. All of them showed an excited expression that was never satisfied. Only David, shoulder-lifting and carrying a sweat in the sunshine of the early summer, shuttled through the crowd. Walking leisurely in front of him is his new "girlfriend" Jenny. Although he knew less than five hours, he obediently obeyed her orders, willingly paid for her, consulted, and then picked things up and rushed to the next counter. And she was also convinced, not at all polite, even scornful to glance at the menswear counter. The two men occasionally talked and laughed, but they knew in their hearts that they did not owe anyone to each other, and as soon as the time came, they might have become strangers again - the same as everyone passing by. Because David is Jenny's “temporary boyfriend” who rented her for 200 yuan, she stays fulltime and is only valid for one day.

David is 25 years old and works for two years, working as a Clerk at a foreign trade company. "When I saw this post on the forum, I found it very interesting. So I sent Enail to the girl in accordance with the above contact method. I didn't think she really wrote back. She said she called Jenny, a nice name. Later, David and Jenny agreed on MSN that David would accompany her on Sunday from 11am to 6pm for a reward of RMB 200. "Actually, I don't lack this money. It's pure fun. The girl who came up with this idea would be interesting."

Staying with you is a great effort

On Sunday, David agreed to go to the meeting at the entrance of the Grand Gateway. "To tell the truth, it was still quite tense. Although we used to accompany girls to go shopping, it was a strange girl after all, and I had to pay her compensation. This is always weird."

11:05 The girl arrived as expected. Twenty-seven-year-old, pale pink shirt, blue jeans, a shawl straight hair, dress is very simple, is a very beautiful girl. “At that time she approached me and said to me: 'Hey, are you David? I'm Jenny'. I was relieved somehow.” David recalled.

After a simple greeting, David's "work" officially began. "She handed me a credit card and told me to pay for her when she bought something. She said she hated paying herself for herself, like a painless child."

Travelling through the various shopping malls in Xujiahui, the girls strolled carefully and they were seen by almost every counter. David has always been with her. "She will try a lot of clothes, and almost every product on the cosmetics counter will also have to try it. After trying it out, she will have to ask if I have any opinion for her. When I say good, she will smile. She said that compared with the makeup lady. She believes more about the boys' eyes.” Later, David found out that the girl would try to buy it without hesitation if she tried to wear any clothes and try on any jewelry.

However, the generous Jenny shot did not surprise David. "A skirt that looks very general, she does not buy eyes - more than 700 yuan!"

After a few hours, David was already sore in his legs and feet. However, when one thinks that he is "rented" by others, he still has to insist, "No way, who told me to receive compensation from others? It must be a bit professional."

At 6 o'clock, David managed to get paid for his work. Although he felt good for the girls, Jené„„ny did not give him more opportunities in the following days. After all, rent is rent.

VIPs to accompany because of loneliness

There were few people on the Hengshan road that had just entered the night. Sitting on the porch seat at Beni Bar, Guo Qing relaxed and chatted with the writer (provided that the author had just been her boyfriend for a day.) Guo Qing was a Advertising company graphic designer, 28 years old. It has been a long time since I broke up with my most recent boyfriend. Because nobody had been with her for a long time, she had not visited the street. "Sometimes it really feels like I'm going to be boring crazy."

"Is there no friends around you to accompany you?"

"Yes, but I don't like them to comfort me as soon as they meet, and then advise me to find a new boyfriend quickly. Moreover, everyone has their own life. I don't want to be a burden for others."

"But have you considered your own security issue?"

"It's just shopping. There are so many people on the road. What are you afraid of?"

By the way, looking for him

In fact, Guo Qing was not the first person to "play."

A sister beside her was very sad when she broke up with her boyfriend who had been in love for many years. Her life became a mess. Every day I wandered and sat there in a daze. The whole person lost a big lap. The friends around her began to worry about her. Later, a group of sisters "emergency, wisdom and wisdom", everyone on the Internet to find a good boy, pay him some money, let him go shopping with the sister on weekends, chat. When the sister returned from the first day, she became like an individual. She did a beauty, got her hair, repaired her nails, and bought a lot of clothes. Later, she herself became hooked on renting boyfriends on the Internet. Before the disappointment of lost love was thrown into the cloud. Now she is in love again, and the boyfriend is a later boy who goes shopping with her. The person is very nice, and she is very handsome. The two have already been married.

"Then do you have some expectation?"

"Maybe". Guo Qing is not right, but his eyes clearly reveal expectations.

Expert analysis

The alternative behavior of the age of personality

National psychological counselor Leng Li

The first reason for this phenomenon is the general loosening of the social environment. When people associate with people, they will not have too much emphasis on the other party's past experience or special background, and they will pay more attention to the other person’s current situation, such as personality and quality.

Second, we are in an era of extreme individuality. Every individual and every day is pursuing certain things that belong to individuals. Such as special behaviors, wearing dress, etc., on the one hand to prove themselves, on the other hand also attracts other people's attention. The incident in which a girl rents a boyfriend to go shopping is a typical personality event. The people around her do not have or have similar behaviors, enough alternatives, and special enough.

However, I still have reservations about finding the other half in this way. Girls actually don't have too high expectations for boys who know this way, because after all, there is a certain economic relationship between the two parties, and there will not be too many emotional components.
