Should i make up a fake facebook boyfriend?

i look on facebook and see that my ubernerdy friends from my all-girls highschool have "relationships" now in college. thats not fair at all!!!!!! none of us had boyfriendss in hs, and honestly if i am the last one to get one.......... im going to just die.


they already act like they pity me when we get together over breaks.

Should i make up a fake facebook boyfriend?
Don't you dare make up a boyfriend! Ask me, and anyway, if you say you are taken and you aren't whoever wants will think you aren't available and will find someone else. If your friends find out they'll think you are desperate and a liar. Is a fake guy worth your friendship?(everything has it's own time)
Reply:It's not a race, relax. Having an immaginary boyfriend is much more worth the pity you're afraid of than not having one at all. don't lower yourself to that. And hey, what if someone at your school is interested in you and looks at your facebook and sees you "in a relationship" they might not ask you out because they think you're taken





who knows... maybe they all made thiers up too!
Reply:that is dumb..


don't fake anything


cause somehow they will find out your lieing and you will feel really stupid for making it up
Reply:So basically you want to make yourself seem like more of a loser by making up a boyfriend? They will know that he was made up when none of them have ever heard of him or met him.
Reply:You're acting like you are still in HS...


Yeah, make one up. Your "UBERNERDY" friends will really pitty you when the truth comes out, lol...
Reply:You'd pity yourself if you were trying to pull one over on them...don't make up a lie you'll get caught and you'll end up getting hurt in the process....so will your friends...they'd feel even more bad for you....so just tell them not to treat you differently b/c you don't have a bf and don't let them when they do...stand up for yourself...and don't get sad around them when they are with their bfs be your normal happy go lucky self....briming with self confidence....before you know it you'll have somebody...and don't go looking for someone either they won't be worth it....wait!
Reply:i am sitting in the exact same boat with you. my friends are in relationships, getting engaged, getting married. don't do it. you don't have to list yourself as single, but do not say you are in a relationship. relax. it'll come when it comes. i know this is hard to believe, but it will. for the mean time, relish being single. relish not having to consult someone else when you make decisions. relish the spontaneity, and get a copy of bridget jones's diary. buenos suertes! ;)
Reply:nah don't fake it! Own up to being single and enjoy it, and when they say something about how great their relationship is, you can just mention how Awesome it is to not be tied down to anyone and free to do what you want.
Reply:Imagine this - you make up a fake boyfriend and they find out about it. How much pity would you be getting then? Not to mention, making a boyfriend up - will only lead to more questions: what's he like, where's he live, job, etc. You're better off just waiting for Mr. Right. Just be patient, he's out there somewhere.





ETA: Even putting "in a relationship" will lead to questions. If these are your friends, they are going to want to know about who you're seeing. That starts the whole Lies lead to more Lies cycle.





I'm sorry you're having a hard time. I know what it's like to be the only one who's not in a relationship, but like someone else mentioned - enjoying be single! In fact, a good book - Single, Sassy, and Satisfied. You should be able to find it on Amazon. I read it after my divorce and started getting feeling lonely and depressed.
Reply:There's nothing wrong with being single.





Heck, you don't know what kind of boyfriends they have anyway.





Are you sure their situation is better than yours?





Don't let having or not having a man say anything about you.
Reply:no that would be vry lame. If they start bugging you about your single status, tell them you don't want to date serious yet, you perfer to have guy friends without the strings.
Reply:dont make one up.. tell them ur prince is somewhere, hes just too stubborn to ask for directions :)
