We've had cowboy fantasies before, but none of them played out like those in this video for Boys Don't Cry's 1986 hit, "I Wanna Be A Cowboy."

A woman from Chicago is engaged to marry one of the real-life murderers from Boys Don't Cry.

Jennifer Mirth received a marriage license to tie the knot with Tom Nissen, who is serving a life sentence for the rape and murder of three people, including Brandon Teena, the person portrayed by Hillary Swank in Boys Don't Cry. Mirth fell for him after seeing the movie, liking his character, and writing letters to him in prison.

We're worried about a few things here.

1) Nissin and Mirth have never actually met; do you think there's the chance that when she shows up to the prison for the first time, she'll take a look at him and say "Oh, shit! You're not the hot guy from the movie! Forget it."
