Why You Should Never Be Romantic

Be a man next time and just watch sports…

Some people accuse the Germans of being not so great at romance. This story isn’t going to do them any good.

A German woman living in Berlin heard the sound of someone climbing onto her balcony after midnight. Afraid that it was a burglar breaking in, she then went and called the police, who promptly arrives. The “burglar” then jumped down from the balcony and began to try to run away, only to be tackled by several cops.

The “burglar” was in fact the woman’s boyfriend. He was trying to surprise her with some flowers and a bottle of wine. Epic fail.

The police spokesman however said on the bright side, “He nevertheless gave the police who were taking him to jail the bottle of wine as a gesture of thanks for the friendly treatment after the arrest”. Sure he did buddy. When’s the last time you got tackled by some cops and gave them a bottle of wine out of gratitude?
