Boyfriend on demand - Fiction or reality?
The protagonist is offered a device that allows you to virtually experience different dates as if they were real. She falls in love with a boyfriend but discovers she's not the only one going out with him, and she says and does the same things to all the others. So she upgrades, where, at his direction, she describes her ideal boyfriend and discovers she's been describing her colleague with whom she didn't get along. A moment of confusion as she tries to figure out where fiction ends and reality begins, and she opts for reality.
I initially liked the idea of this plot itself because it was novel, but then it was poorly (trivially) exploited.
Virtual life is great, but if it were actually commercialized, it would lead to a disconnect from reality and chronic/dangerous indebtedness.
