“Back burners are people we are romantically and/or sexually interested in, who we’re not currently involved with, and with whom we keep in contact in the possibility that we might someday connect romantically and/or sexually. People can have back burners even if they’re already in a romantic relationship with someone else. Also, a former romantic and/or sexual partner can still count as a back burner so long as we still desire a romantic and/or sexual connection with them.” (Dibble et al., 2015, p. 226) https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/love-online/201606/are-you-someone-s-back-burner-five-ways-tell
Rather less than one might think....;-D...
I dont even know how to answer this tbh.. I have a few people who are interested in me but of course Im only interested in the one person who has me and doesnt really seem to want me because im pathetic like that.
Almost nearly one? lol
I'm not sure if it's a conscious thing. I bet there's a good chance these people didn't consider their "back burners" as such until they saw the definition. It's different than making someone wait for you or luring someone in. It's just about havng people in your life that you might someday have a relationship with under the right circumstances.
Eh... If they're interested in you, but you're not interested in them under any circumstances, then you have no back burners. As for being pathetic... nah. You're human. We've all been there. Hopefully things will either turn around for you or you'll be able to let go and move onto something healthier.
Thank goodness we're not people, right? O_o
Aww... Is it good to have zero? I don't even know. It must be.
That is a big yuck to me. They are gone, they are GONE for a reason.

None, they are all in the front, either on or off. Very good question.
