Internet Dating Gone Seriously Wrong
 

The way she looked...

[ 5 Jan, 2007 1934hrs ISTAFP ]

BEIJING: A 17-year-old boy in northeastern China was so disappointed with the looks of a woman he met over the Net that he hanged himself after seeing her face-to-face, the state media reported on Friday.

The unnamed teenager first contacted the woman -- known by her chat moniker "Qunjiaofeiyang", or "Flying Skirt" -- using the popular Chinese online messaging software QQ, Xinhua news agency said.

The girl described herself as a beautiful 19-year-old and the pair chatted on the web for weeks before arranging a December 26 rendezvous in the nearby city of Mudanjiang, in far northeastern Heilongjiang province.

The boy arrived to discover the woman far less attractive than advertised and 10 years older than him, Xinhua said.

The boy immediately returned home, lost his appetite, and four days later hanged himself from a tree.

that's the definition of ugly.

"she's was hang yourself ugly."

Actually, the most insulting part of this from the woman's perspective, I think, has to be that he lost his appetite for 4 days before he killed himself. I mean, it's one thing to be distraught over the difference between assumed and actual appearance, so distraught that you kill yourself because your "ideal woman" fell far short of what you had built her up to be. It's another to be so physically sick about what you saw that you lose your appetite for 4 days.

FWIW, I'm assuming part of the "disgust" has to do with what he talked to her about and what he was doing while talking to her that grosses him out more than just meeting her and her being ugly...

gasp.....they cybered?

I will admit the name "Flying Skirt" is kind of hot.

Apparently it should have flown up and covered her head.

I assume at some point somebody will post pics, so just to be safe I'm never clicking on this thread again.

Not necessarily.

I'd post a pic of "deformed Bert," but that would just be mean.

I love how the article names her a girl when she's passing herself off as 19 and a woman everywhere else.

This just goes to show ya kids:

"Be careful when you don your robe and wizard hat. Rhinos don't play games, the f*cking charge your ass."

Anyone have the dating site picture vs what she looked like?

Awwwww damn....Noops gonna be pissed!

Dat chicks hawt!

Do you have any other pics, perhaps in a 3x3 instant photo booth format?

If that was her online pic, then she must have been the twin of the Chinese guy in the other thread that had the "pimple" from the age of 4.

I feel like I've heard this story before...

I'd hit it.

Gold!!!!!!

:)

You have, it's an urban legend. Check snopes (and no, I'm not doing to link to the damn site). ;)

What?! Are you telling me the India Times is lying!
