"How I Lost My 'Invisible Boyfriend' In 6 Days" - Jezebel
http://jezebel.com/how-i-lost-my-invisible-boyfriend-in-6-days-1681179926

I just read this and had to share.
The idea, the execution, it's amazing and hilarious.



Basically it's a service that people pay for to have a fake boyfriend sending you texts, voicemails, postcards, etc. (I think it also says you can also have a fake girlfriend, but the article only explored the boyfriend service.) Oh and you design the boyfriend, his name and image, and how you met and what he's like.
There's a lot of great back and forth with the texting.

Hahaha. Anyway you should read the whole thing, I found it really amusing. Otoge has been like fake dating for me, but this is a whole other kind of beast. Can you imagine if they ever made an otome game/service with this kind of interactive element? Having some back and forth with your Prince over text? Especially with recent BMPP Royal Talk thing, this is just the logical next step! XD

Lol the messages aren't even from one single person. Useless.

Welp~ Consistency sure went out the window~ The other texter(s) seems like a woman at the end, imo. But I think that I need a job in this invisible position. Where do I apply? ( *0*) I expect to meet a lot of delicious trolls~~ Ahem, anyway, while this concept is hilarity bundled in a smart phone, you might need to additionally nest some of that collapsed content in Hide tags for safety~

I like that hopeful last line, though. A fake relationship turning real in a twist of coincidence. I shall turn to my app store, now~

Ohh, so it's still only a beta so far. I see, I see~~

haha~ That was really fun, how she got dumped in the end xDD

So he was also trolling her ?

"No pressure, but it would mean a lot to me if you showed up, for once"

She totally killed me with that xD Thanks for sharing !
