In case you've been looking for a quick way to escape that ball and chain, just ask prankster Nathan Fielder for some love advice -- your significant other will be running the other way in no time.
For his latest prank, the comedian -- who previously had kids text their parents about drug deals -- asked his Twitter followers to text their partners an extraordinarily vague message. And then told them to wait. No phone calls, no response texts -- complete radio silence.
Sounds like a fab idea, right?
Experiment: text the person ur dating "I haven't been fully honest with you" then dont reply to them for 1 hr (& tweet pic of thr response)— nathan fielder (@nathanfielder) May 29, 2013
Boyfriends and girlfriends, rightfully so, had some hysterical reactions to the texts. Most got accusatory, others threatening and a few had their own confessions. All in all, it turned out to be a terrible idea for those couples, but a genius idea for the rest of the Twitterverse to enjoy.
