Do all of your friends have boyfriends and you don't? Do you always feel left out because your friends are talking about their boyfriend and you have nothing to share? This is the article for you! Fake having a boyfriend simply and easily. All you have to do is follow the steps below and you will have an imaginary bf!
Steps
-
1Create basic facts about your boyfriend. What's his name? What does he look like? Where did you meet him? Etc, etc.
-
2Create an email address for him with Hotmail, for example. This is so that he can 'communicate' with your friends. Reply to the emails yourself.Advertisement
-
3If possible, get a male friend of yours to impersonate your 'boyfriend'. Have him speak to your friends over the phone.
-
4Make up names for his family and friends.
-
5Show off the gifts 'he' bought for you (which you actually bought yourself )
-
6Come up with a good excuse as to why he can't meet your friends. One example of this would be stating that this false boyfriend is homeschooled and that he isn't allowed to go out during the term, but the pair of you still date over holidays. You can also suggest that you have a long-distance relationship going.
-
7Stage a break up. Before you do this come up with a reason why and who initiated it. Opt for something believable.(Example: Your "boyfriend" cheated on you.) You may want to consider moping around for a few days, anxiously checking your phone for messages every ten minutes.
