I've wondered about that. I'm curious now if he ever existed, was a manipulation or a hallucination. I'm wondering if she ever discusses it if we will hear how she doesn't believe in love anymore?
I wondered if he was real, also. But a boy friend does not fit with the "I am all alone" theme and her great loss theme she has been promoting lately. I don't think she can have a boyfriend and cry that she is alone. He had to go for the sake of the show.
