"GirlFriend Experience", she basically treats you as a lover with a lot of comfort and emotional support without the shitty nagging of an IRL woman.
The catch is, you gotta pay for it, a lot.
Your soul might be lost in the process too.

Term zoomers use to paid online intimacy. I hate that this is even used in regards to vtubers. I have no problem with streamers being parasocial with viewers and vice versa, but "GFE" as a readily thrown terms implies that the relationship is by default transactional.

Girlfriend Experience

A term that originating from the escort business, in which a woman is employed to provide you with the eponymous experience of being your girlfriend

In the vtubing scene it has come to mean any parasocial overture to the audience (especially to the vtuber's patrons) that could evoke feelings similar to those of actually being in a relationship with the vtuber

where women online pretend to be anime girls and bait a bunch of sad lonely faggots for their money

it's not that terrible in actuality. as long as people who buy into it don't genuinely believe they have a chance irl (which im sure the vast majority do not) and don't bankrupt themselves doing it, its pretty harmless to everyone else

My nigga
Bae's GFE was something special
The best part was that I could enjoy it in the moment, indulge myself in it fully and then back out afterwards, both because of my own mental well being in fear of getting too parasocial and because Bae herself drew the line afterwards.
That stream reminded me of what I could achieve If I do my reps, become a better person and be patient.

I too am grateful to the rat for helping me out

As long as they don't pick obvious favorites long-term and I know nobody is fucking her IRL it's easy for me to feel as if a little piece is mine and mine alone
Even easier if I've ever interacted with her, even if it's as little as a few SC being read and her recognizing my name
Also, when it's GFE, her not fucking off-stream makes it feel like a real commitment she's making and when somebody does something like that, sacrificing her romantic life for her fans I find it very easy to feel safe falling for her, and then getting a little bit of love from her is addictive because it feels much more real

It's what every vtuber with an audience does. A girlfriend is more than just a fucktoy. A relationship involves doing fun things with her, playing games, talking about random shit, hanging out with her friends, watching movies, being her emotional support. This is literally what vtubing is.

It people can get attached to a bucket and feel a connection to it there's no reason it can't happen with a Vtuber.
Especially if in her support rewards she has stuff like 15min Discord calls, movie dates, valentine's and new year recorded message and birthday IRL handwritten cards.

and yes the relationship is by default transactional, since they don't stream for free but do it for a return, and you don't send your superchat message because you expect nothing in return, but you expect a rensponse to it and a "thank you anonchama you are the best! kyun~!"
