Takashi Miyagawa, a 39-year-old working part-time, without a fixed address, was arrested in Osaka, Japan for cheating on 35 women with whom he claimed to be in a serious relationship. In the most recent case he told a 47-year-old woman that his birthday was on February 22, when in fact it was November 13. A 40-year-old woman told him that her birthday was in July and another, in April. The current number of cheating women is 35, and they all accuse Takashi of cheating, with at least 100,000 yen each - just over the $ 900 they spent on birthday presents.
Miyagawa reportedly met the women while selling "hydrogen water showers" and other equipment through a marketing company and began a romantic relationship with each under the assumption that "even marriage was imminent."
However, as his network of lies began to disperse like hydrogen molecules in his therapeutic water, the women all formed an "Victims Association" and reported it to the police in February last year.
Here is how some of the people reacted:
"Can you imagine what the planning had to do? 35 people at once?"
"Even if he meets each one every day of the month, he still has 5 left without meeting."
"This is slanderous, but impressive."
"Imagine how difficult it is to maintain a relationship with a person ..."
"Can you imagine all that planning and scheduling to go out with 35 people at once?"
"Gifts are something, but isn't this a pyramid scheme where the boy is being cheated too?"
"He's a terrible person, but I envy him for his time management skills."
