I can see this evolving from "let others think I have a boyfriend" to "I'm going to feel like I have a boyfriend".
People already pay for sex. People already pay for non-sexual escorts (which i believe is mostly for show-off[0]). I can totally see people paying for the "boyfriend experience".
Some random texts, gifts in specific days. A compliment and a "how's your day". All in pure 21st century fashion - social-media centered.
It's depressing but I can imagine a lot of people that, while having lots of friends, are emotionally lonely.
