Bouche trou

I'm looking for english translation of "bouche trou" (french).

 

Here are some possible definitions :

Person or object which presence is only required to fill a hole/gap.
Person not needed, simply here to entertain while there is nothing better to do.

 

For example, (Y) want to chat with (X). (X) don't really like (Y).
(X) only accept to chat with (Y) to kill time while waiting for something else.

 

Can you define what is (Y) according to (X) point of view ?
Also, what do you think of both of them ?

 

I hope I was clear enough for you to undestand, and I'm looking forward to your answers !
Thanks.

Do you like pastas ?

Do you like it ? and what is your favorite ? (tortellini, udon...)

 

I love pastas, I eat almost every day. My favorite is soba.

Love affair.

Hello,

I'm in a love relationship with a nice girl. But she keep hiding and lying about her realtionship with someone else. I'm really worried about that, I feel like she is not mine, she talk with him almost everyday, she prefer to speak with him about her fears and such... I feel useless, it's driving me crazy.

What should I do ? Should I ask her to stop it ? Should I just let it go ?
