Some people have made it their mission to sleuth out fake relationships online (we’re looking at you, Catfish guys.)
Matt Homann, mastermind behind Invisible Girlfriend / Invisible Boyfriend, has made it his business to create them.
The web app – almost in private beta mode – provides lonely singletons the tools to whip up fictitious significant others in just a few clicks. To get started, all you have to do is sign up, pay a fee, and choose your fake mate’s name, age, and face. If friends ask how you met your mysterious lover, spew out a whopper of a tale created by filling in a Mad Libs-style questionnaire.
Zip code matching makes sure you won’t be able to choose a bogus beau in your area.
Which is good, since the average person can still sniff out a fishy story from a mile away.
