Some women fell in love at first sight with the men who shouted… Why the “Japan Loving Wives Association,” a group of men who love their wives, shout their love in the cabbage patch

Since its establishment until today, more than 500 couples have cried out their love. Mr. Kosuge himself was once troubled by his marital relationship.

I was always shy by nature, lacking confidence in my work and child rearing, and my relationship with my wife was strained. It was then that I happened to attend a cross-industrial exchange meeting, I met him at and contacted him after hearing the contact information of the Executive Director from a person who was cooperating in our activities. I was invited to join “CABETCHU”. I apologized for my past immorality toward my wife and shouted out loud my love and appreciation for her, which I had never expressed to her. “Oh, that’s all you did?” You may think, “Oh, that’s it? But just by doing something as simple as that, you can easily change your life,” said Kosuge.

According to Kosuge, seven students from the School of Commerce at Meiji University who agreed with the association’s slogan, “Don’t be shy to share your love,” formed the “Tsumagoi Group” after participating in “Cabechew.

I am very grateful that our activities have been sympathized with by young people. The other day, when I met the Tsumagoi group members for the first time in more than ten years, all seven of them were married and had children. …… Considering that my daughter (17) is approaching the age when she is supporting “cabecchu” , I was very deeply moved.

In the past, “marriage was the goal” and early marriage was the norm, but today’s young people have developed a social mindset and discuss partnerships more closely. The COVID-19 crisis has led to an increase in the number of mature divorces, but I believe that the divorce rate among young people will decrease. In future Japan, I hope to see a world where married couples whisper their love to each other on a daily basis.

In a world full of love refugees, I hope that people will recognize the value of their wives, the “strangers closest to them.
