There is a difference between extending a visa and applying for a residence permit.

To extend a visa for more than the maximum of 90 days, only cases of serious illness, death or other humanitarian grounds will be considered.

To apply for a residence permit as a boyfriend or girlfriend you will have to provide proof that you have been co-habiting previously for 18 months or so – or simply provide a marriage certificate. Plus the usual requirements that you can read on www.nyidanmark.dk

Short version: NOT possible.

You can only get an extension, if there are grave reasons, such as you are visiting a close relative who is/becomes terminally ill, you yourself become to ill to travel, or your country and especially your hometown is almost impossible to return to because of war or natural disaster.

If you want to get residence permit, you may check the possibilities here:
