Show her you'd do it all over again

This one happened just tonight at Outback Steakhouse on 82nd. A table of five gentlemen in their 60's (?) were talking quite loudly.

Man 1: His ex was calling her over & over, telling her not to marry him, don't do it, it will ruin your life.

Man 2: That happened to a buddy of mine in Reno. He killed himself to get away from it.

Man 3:
Oh, yeah! Him.

Man 2:
He stepped in front of a bus.
