I couldn't use real wives/girlfriends for my Of Love and Time story, it didn't feel right to use them in the storylines I have so I made them up. They are essential to the plots, but the story isn't about them.
I will write the real ones at times. Say for instance, if my story is about Nick and he visits Brian, Leighanne would be there and maybe pipe up a line or two. IF I was writing about Brian, Leighanne would not be his wife or his girlfriend. If that makes any sense :)
But yah, I don't mind stories that do have them.
julilly:
We're kind of veering off from the point. The question is not the use of fictional characters. We all use fictional characters in stories otherwise it would be very challenging to come up with original plots. We don't all need to provide examples of original characters in individual stories.
The debate is whether or not it's still BSB fanfiction when the main character is not a Backstreet Boy.

And, I agree with both!
I do have a couple of stories that focus more on an original character(s) but I include in it that is original/fanfiction cause the boys are in it and a big part of the story, but it's not my focus.
