PBF aka Pretend Boyfriend is a convenient imaginary boyfriend who often comes in handy in many ways, such as excuse to get out of doing something, turning down a date, etc.
Occasionally Bill and I break up but it never lasts more than a few days and I know we'll be back together. So although technically we are broken up, dating anyone else feels like cheating. But Bill has to know what he's risking and that he might really lose me. That's where Carlo, my PBF (Pretend Boyfriend) comes in very handy...Bill does not not not like that Carlo is in my life!
