Renting a girlfriend, explained

Renting a girlfriend vs going alone

3 min read

Going alone is often the right answer: it is free, and most family days are easier than they look the week before. Renting a girlfriend is for the days where the questions have become the whole visit, or where a day in a strange city is easier with someone who lives there.

When going alone is better

  • Your family asks once and moves on
  • You would rather answer honestly than plan a story
  • The day is short and you know everyone
  • The cost would matter more than the day

When a rental day helps

  • Every visit has become about who you are with
  • A holiday at home where you would rather enjoy the meal
  • A first visit somewhere you do not know anyone
  • A reunion where arriving alone would be the story

Easy company without pressure.

If you are unsure

Ask anyway — asking commits you to nothing. We would rather tell you a day does not need us than book one that does not.

Common questions

Is it strange to rent someone for a family day?

Less than people think. Most first messages begin "I've never done this before", and many become regular clients.

What if my family asks too many questions?

That is what the brief is for: the answers are agreed in advance, kept simple and close to true.

What does a day cost?

A day rate set by country, agreed in writing before you book; the price page shows yours.
