The Backup Boyfriend:Girlfriend
The Backup Boyfriend:Girlfriend
I think this is a familiar scenario to a lot of people in the real world, and that’s what makes it so
relatable in the show. Even women who are already with Mr. Right (Jim, in our example)
sometimes still have a Mr. Plan B . . . just in case. Or at least that’s how it seemed to me when I
was in graduate school. I bartended nights and weekends, and I couldn’t help but notice this
phenomenon going on around me.
