You would think the police, parents, and school officials would be thrilled to death by a guy who waits up in a tree in Terre Haute, Indiana for his girlfriend to get out of school. See, he's going to propose marriage and has driven all the way for Michigan or Wisconsin or one of those crazy places and has the ring in his pocket and everything.
What a hopeless romantic, right? "Hopeless" might be the word for it, yes...
According to a variety of bloodthirsty news outlets, a 20-year-old internet dork named Alex Edwards drove down to Indiana from Wisconsin and waited for his girlfriend to get out of school so he could propose. Awww... shucks. As it turns out, his girlfriend is a 14-year-old eighth grader who has been telling everyone she's been trying to break up with this creep for ages. And yes, they've had sex.
Edwards was surrounded by cops by the time school let out and he had this to say about his predicament:
Alex Edwards, 20, admitted he had sexual relations with the girl
last August. He told reporters before his court hearing Tuesday he
believed the relationship “was the same as like a 26-year-old and a
20-year-old.”
Not quite, Casanova. You're now facing several years in prison, not to mention spending his 21st birthday (Sunday)... in Indiana. Ouch.
