used to describe a boy or girl of slight interest who isn't exactly qualified to date at the moment, but may come in handy later. thus one places them on the "back burner," keeping them warm (subtle flirting, etc.), until you're ready to chow down (i.e. date, talk, hang out with when one has nothing else to do, etc.)
"Yea Tom is acting like a dick tonight, but I have Joe on the backburner, I think I'll give him a call."

Get the backburner mug.The AIM window that keeps blinking, yet you do not click on it. You are more focused doing other things, such as checking e-mail or listening to music.
I didn't want to talk to Nick, so I left him on my backburner.
Andrew was pissing me off, so I he was going to sit on my backburner until he calmed down.
Shit. I don't feel like talking to Jenna, I said I'd hang out with her. I can't sign off, she'll get the message. She's just going to sit on my backburner until she ignores me.

Get the backburner mug.A Backburner is someone you'd wait for, your favorite someone, but they'd leave you for their "someone else" without hesitation, they'd use you as a move on material, if they did that then YOUR their backburner. You basically settled for being their backburner without knowing.

Get the Backburner mug.The kind of bastard that puts nice pretty girls on the back burner, and instead dates some biologically confused Mexican trash bag that sells herself for food stamps and thinks she's a vampire.
Person 1: Gosh darnet I really liked that guy but it turns out that he was just a backburner bastard.
Person 2: Don't worry he'll be burned back when he's sitting in the corner and watching that Mexican slut sell her self for food stamps.
Person 1: Yeah, I hope it burns when he's eating Mexican man cum out of her twat..... stupid fucking backburner bastard.
