The Absolute Dumbest Things People Have Done For Love

#1 Ripping Out Your Expensive Braces

Having braces as a teen is not the easiest thing to go through but most kids don't resort to ripping them off just to get a date. This teen found out his crush wanted nothing to do with him so after 4 years of wearing the headgear he decided to take action. Ripping the braces off with a pair of nail clippers. Yes, nail clippers.

She actually said yes to going out with him afterwards. But when he showed up to her house to pick her up that weekend, he was in for a big shocker. She had been fitted with a full headgear of her own! So rip your braces off?? Actually no, don't do that and definitely not with a pair of nail clippers.

#2 Poop At The Door Trick

Well, there's dumb and then there's.. whatever the hell type of crazy that makes you think smearing poop on her door is a good idea to win her love.

After being dumped, this heartbroken man came up with the perfect plan to win her back. Smearing his own shit on her apartment door before setting it on fire. And apparently, he yelled "I am the Devil" while it blazed and she called the police and fire department.

Where do you even start, is the poop supposed to lure her back? Does his crap smell like roses? Apparently while under arrest he told reporters "Yo, tell ‘em I poo". Well, Rasheen Harrison, we'll tell ‘em all for you. Sadly for him, she didn't take him back, and had a restraining order placed on him, but he was sentenced to 2 years in jail.

#3 Fake A Car Accident And Your Own Death

There's nothing quite like traumatizing your partner to get them to realize just how much they need you in their life.

The genius idea from Russian man Alexey Bykov involved faking a highway accident in which he 'fake' died to get his girl to feel the dark abyss that was life without him. Then he popped up and popped the question. "Will you marry my corpse?"

Which created a real clusterfuck of emotions for her, as Alexey even went so far that he hired stuntmen and movie effects artists to set the scene perfectly. The best part is that she laughed and gave him a great big hug when accepting his proposal! He must have something killer planned for the wedding ceremony.

#4 A Very Long Bus Ride

Some parts of the world require you to travel long, unsafe distances like the trip this man had to endure between Dehli and his university.

See it's a horrible 6-hour bus ride and his girlfriend was coming to visit and he didn't want her to make the trip alone. So being the romantic he is, he headed out to make the 6-hour ride to the city just to escort her back. The problem was her flight came in at 5 am.

The last departing bus back for the day was filled up. But there was still one seat available..the roof of a caravan. Enduring six hours on the roof of a bus going 50 mph, with over a dozen other people hanging on for life, in freezing winter on a very dangerous route. That's real love right there.

#5 Fake A Hate Crime

Don't waste time on couple's counselling, just burn a cross in the yard and blame the KKK to save your marriage.

If that sounds dumb as hell then congratulations, you aren't LB Williams. Fearing his wife was going to leave him he decided to pull the ol' burning cross to scare his wife into staying trick.

Why would that scare her? Well, the couple was interracial so along with cross came a lovely note saying "You better not leave that N****r". What was the plan here LB? Look shocked and just say "well you better do what the racists say, darling". Why would the KKK want to keep an interracial couple together? That's what his wife asked as well. He didn't stick to the tale long and confessed to the bizarre act of love.

#6 Donate A Body Part

There's something so noble about giving up an organ that she'll just have to date you, right?

This unfortunate Romeo was so head over heels with a girl that when her "brother" needed a new kidney, he leapt into action. Offering up his own to save a life, and hopefully, get laid. And it worked, for a short time.

After the operation, she eventually started to make strange excuses as to why they couldn't see each other. Then she did the inevitable, breaking his heart by saying "I don't want to waste my time with a sentimental fool. I prefer guys who are more masculine." Turns out that her "Brother" was actually her fiancé. The happy couple got married right after his new kidney healed up. This player got played bad.

#7 Calling In A Bomb Threat

His clingy Chilean girlfriend decided that instead of talking about how she felt, she could spell it out by making a bomb threat.

Her partner was leaving the country to become a cruise ship waiter, so on the day he was flying out she decided to call the airline and tell them the plane was going to explode.

That's much easier than just telling Rodrigo "don't leave, I love you, please stay." No, instead you should annoy the hell out of the other passengers, the police, and your boyfriend by causing an international scene assumed to be terrorism. Turns out the jerk was actually flattered by her attempt and after she served 3 years of jail time, they reunited.
