Default Harassed boyfriend jumped to his death....

We've all been there mate.........

Quote:
A man jumped to his death after a furious row with his girlfriend who insisted they go into another clothes shop.

CCTV shows Tao Hsiao, 38, escorting his girlfriend around a shopping mall in Xuzhou, Jiangsu province, east China.

After five hours Tao finally had enough and demanded to go home.

Eyewitnesses say he could be heard saying they already had more bags than they could carry, but she insisted on going into one more shop where the was a special offer on shoes.

An eyewitness said: 'He told her she already had enough shoes, more shoes that she could wear in a lifetime and it was pointless buying any more.

'She started shouting at him accusing him of being a skinflint and of spoiling Christmas, it was a really heated argument.'

The shouting match ended when the man chucked the bags on the floor and jumped over the balcony, smashing into Christmas decorations on his way down before hitting the floor seven storeys below causing shocked shoppers to flee in panic..........

I wonder if just going home and leaving her there had ever crossed his mind? Bet she still bought the shoes.

I told my missus that we need lunch and she wanted to push the envelope with 1 last shop. I was asked which one I these two tops look better? I threw both out the shop door and went to lunch.

And I got a quickie in the change rooms once.

From some of the other posts I have seen about Chinese construction quality, he could have stood on the top and let it fall down on its own.

See its the KFC princibal, weve all had one good feed at KFC and the only reason we still order that crap is in the hope that it will be as good as that time.

What his mrs has done is given him a quicky that one time she knows it will never happen again but she knows he also wont ever crack the sads and jump in ge hope that one day maybw just one day he'll get another quicky in the change room

I was lucky enough to be in that position once with a very random but awesome lady friend in my youth.
It was in the shanty like change room at a stall in Parklea Markets in Sydney.
A slight error of judgement and keenness doing the job saw us fall out through the curtains , knocking the change rooms over and the frame landing on the trestle table the market holder was using.
The store holder insisted my friend brought the skirt she was trying on at the time and to leave.
We walked away to the laugher of the crowd in the markets and a fella walked up to me and shook my hand.
Finished the day driving out to a pub in the Hawkesbury where we had lunch , I got blind and she drove me home. Managed to get another 2 away in transit as well.

Was a pretty good Sunday actually.
