Even a hopeless romantic must admit that there's a time when you have to give up on your boyfriend -- and that time is when he starts to decompose.

Austrian police are saying a 66-year-old Austrian woman lived for almost a year with the corpse of her 85-year-old partner. They found him swaddled in blankets and in desperate need of embalming.

Now, investigators are trying to figure out whether she was trying to collect his pension, or if she was just a bit kinky.

The news comes as Australian police say another man was in his apartment more than a year before anyone could smell that he was dead.
