Whether it be on a train, bus or as you’re picking up the groceries from the local store – we’ve all had the misfortune of running into one of THOSE couples that can’t quite keep their dirty laundry to themselves.
The loud bickering turns heads, the sobs stop a few sympathisers and at the times the hurtful words conjure up a few giggles.
But while one nosy ear tunes into the public fight, the other one knows it could escape the dramatic scene anytime it gets too awkward.
Unfortunately this wasn’t the case for dozens of travellers on a recent US commercial fight, who were forced to listen in as a struggling couple fought, broke up and then made out.
Fellow air passenger and Twitter user Kelly Keegs took to social media to live tweet the entire break up to thousands of her followers.
Here’s how it started:
Dozens of passengers were patiently sitting in the aircraft waiting for their delayed flight to take off from Raleigh Airport.
That’s when the bickering began, their voices climbed, passengers’ interests peaked and then the guy in the relationship did the unimaginable.

He questioned her reaction to the breakup: “is this really a surprise? Are you seriously surprised by this information?” To which, she responded with anger, saying she couldn’t believe she spent “40 extra dollars to be on this f#cking flight with you”.
Eek.
But unfortunately for fellow passengers the argument didn’t end there.
The ‘guy’ said he didn’t care about the extra money she’d spent – and surprisingly, the girl too didn’t care that he didn’t care about the money.

“I don’t want to be this girl. I don’t want to be her. I want to be my best for you and YOU WONT LET ME”

“Is that what you’re starting to do with me? Just slow fade me OUT? Just like the others?”

She continued to share her disappointment, saying the breakup was so ‘f#cking easy’ for the guy.
Perhaps realising the attention their heated argument was attracting, the guy told his former ex-girlfriend that she needed ‘to calm down’.
She then started a ‘loud sob’ before bringing a ‘Charlotte’ into the conversation.
“I’m going to ask Charlotte. I’m going to ask her the minute we get home and we’ll see if your STORIES MATCH” (Omg scandal who’s Charlotte?)

The guy then decided it was time to cut the conversation: “I can’t discuss this anymore”.
This of course lead to further sobs and wait for it… making out!
Yep, according to Keegs’ tweets, the couple starting ‘making out’ before the flight took off.
This is either the most riveting real-life version of ‘Days of Our Lives’ or it’s completely fake – we’re still trying to decide.
