HE’S got 99 problems, but a fiancé ain't one.
A love-struck Chinese man decided to propose to his girlfriend in the middle of a heart made from 99 iPhone 6s, at a cost of over 500,000 yuan ($94,400), according to The Nafang, citing local media.
Unfortunately for would-be Romeo, she said no – leaving him with a bouquet of flowers, a mountain of phones, and likely a very empty wallet. iphone proposal
In an exchange that was photographed and shared via the Chinese microblogging website WeiBo, the man assembled his stack of brand new iPhone 6 handsets in the shape of a heart.
Then, standing inside it with a bouquet of flowers, he asked his girlfriend to be his bride — all while a crowd of family and friends watched on. iphone proposal
Sadly, she said no. It’s not known if the pair are still together.

I received that advice a long time ago, too. At least it saved me some worry. Be the best you can be and if that's not good enough *shrug* money saved, sound sleep, and trouble avoided.
Lesson: Don’t phone it in.
Build a fort?
Take the word of advice from Glengarry, Glen Ross.
“You never open your mouth until you know what the shot is.”
The problem is that the set up is nothing more than a “look at me, look at me” for him. One can only imagine what he would do for attention at the wedding and reception. The woman was wise.
If he gave her 100 iPhones, she would have said yes. Of course, she might thought he was nuts to give her 99 iPhones, so she said no.
:) so your gonna listen to a guy what women want.Hehehehehe.Women want romance.Also they want you to be your own person and not lean on them for identity.
“My girlfriend says sometimes I act like a stalker.Well, she’s not actually my girlfriend. Yet!”
Most men can’t “have it all” when they get older. You have to be rich to keep getting the pretty ladies.
So, why would a rich man get married?
Well, you can only have sex so many times a day...
I would never try something like that unless I knew for certain what the answer would be.
Offer me a kitten.
Dude... She only has two ears
Sounds like stalker material. He has his family there for the proposal, and she’s just a co-worker? He has a lot of explaining to do, and counseling to get. She needs a new job & identity.
So this “Free Republic” thing is, like, a party line?
Sorta, but a lot more fun. Post things of interest to conservative thinking people and you will go far.
That "hook" is about as conservative a party line hook as you can get. . . heheheheh. . . came off of one of these:
See the hook?
Any lawyer knows you don’t ask any question in the court room that you don’t already know the answer to.
Definition of a stalker: When you go out for walk together but only one of you knows it.
I knew a kid years ago that did exactly that over a summer with a girl, the year we graduated. He ended up attempting suicide when she started showing a baby bump one day.
“A man pursues a woman until she catches him.”
I think the reason for an enormous number of divorces simply boils down to the fact that the culture has established an acceptance of the notion that sex before marriage is perfectly acceptable and even a good thing. Very few couples are virgins when they make their wedding vows nowadays. A person who has had sex even once (prior to going to the alter with the one who they believe will be their spouse for life) carries tremendous negative impact from the experience that affects their future relationship in every way…. not the least of which is that any promises made that involve trust and fidelity are negated by the fact that those were already broken.
