By Rob Preece
A journalist committed suicide on Valentine's Day after splitting up with his girlfriend over a row about the sex drug Viagra, an inquest heard.
James Andrews, 24, was hit by a train on a railway line between Bristol and Bath after posting a message on Twitter to tell his friends he loved them.
He had previously rowed with his partner Eleanor Sharpe, a ballet dancer, over whether he had taken Viagra earlier in their relationship.

Mr Andrews, who lived in Finsbury Park, London, was staying in Bristol because Ms Sharpe was performing at the city's Hippodrome with the English National Ballet School.
The couple had planned to take a trip to Paris on the day Mr Andrews died.
An inquest at Flax Bourton Coroner’s Court in Bristol heard a statement by Ms Sharpe, who is the last known person to have seen Mr Andrews alive.
She said that the two had been in a 'normal physical relationship' after meeting in January.

Relationship: The couple met in January, but split up three days before Mr Andrews killed himself on Valentine's day this year
But the couple split up on February 11 this year.
Ms Sharpe said: 'I found out that he had lied to me about taking Viagra.
'We met outside the Bristol Hotel (where Mr Andrews was staying) and he said he was sorry.
'He had given me a gift which I found on Monday morning. I asked that we meet up to give it back.
'He would not speak to me on Tuesday morning and hung up on the phone.'
Mr Andrews was found dead near the former St Anne's Park railway station the following day - February 14.

Ms Sharpe saw a message left by him on Twitter, which read: 'I wish every single one of you a long and happy life. I love you.'
She said she went to his hotel, where staff told her that there had been an incident involving the police.
She said: 'I messaged one of his friends and he told me what had happened.'
Ms Sharpe said that Mr Andrews’ previous girlfriend had cheated on him and he had had to leave his last job after a breach in confidentiality.
A message on Twitter posted less than four hours before Mr Andrews’ death said: 'For the past few months I’ve been really down and I’m so sorry for not asking people for help.
'Please no [sic] that I love you all. I’m so sorry.'
Comments from friends online also suggested that Mr Andrews had been struggling.

Assistant Coroner Terrence Moore recorded a verdict of suicide.
He said: 'We can be sure that he took his own life.
'Notes which Mr Andrews left at the scene and at his hotel room indicate that he had intended his actions following a break-up of a short six-week relationship.'
Following Mr Andrews’ death, fellow journalist Scott Bryan posted an online tribute to him.
Mr Byron said: 'A brilliant writer, photographer and journalist - an up-and-coming talent.
'A man who had so much potential and was destined to do absolutely brilliant things.'
