That was well before shooting even started on this season. No boyfriend has ever shown up in potential casting, no information has leaked about someone being cast as a boyfriend, and with most of the plots for the show known very of the ones left could have any plotline for a permanent boyfriend.

The likely situation was that before the series had started writing the writers were thinking about giving Carly a boyfriend, but were unable to find someone suitable or the idea was deemed not worth following.
