Bitter Single Man Buys Every Other Seat In Movie Theater So Couples Can’t Sit Together On Valentine’s Day

Am loving this frustration story 

A Chinese man bitter about a recent break-up has bought out every other seat at a cinema in Shanghai to ensure that tonight’s movie won’t be ruined by affectionate couples.

According to the South China Morning Post, the unnamed man’s effort to enjoy a film without the sound of lips smacking was made possible by a campaign on a crowd-funding site that allowed him to afford all the tickets.

The theater will be showing a movie called “Beijing Love Story” in honor of Valentine’s Day but thanks to the man’s campaign, couples will not be able to sit together as the theater will only offer odd seats.

Identifying himself only by the online username “UP,” the man reportedly described himself to the Shanghai Morning Post as a “computer nerd” who had broken up with his girlfriend late last year.UP told the paper that the stunt was very difficult to pull off because the theater’s online booking system would not let him reserve odd seats, and the staff at the theater declined his request.




 “I also didn’t have enough money,” he said. “So finally a friend recommended that I start a campaign on a crowd funding site, and there were enough single Internet friends out there to help me raise the money to do this sort of thing. I hope all lovers understand this is just a small joke,” he added.

UP will be attending tonight’s showing with a group of single friends who hate PDA in theaters just as much as he does.“Want to see a movie on Valentine’s Day? Sorry, you’ll have to sit separately,” reads the campaign. “Absence makes the heart grow fonder. Give us singles a chance.”
