Fire Boy
by an Anonymous Girlposse.com Reader

Going into this first date, I knew that he was a volunteer firefighter/EMT. I didn't think there would be a problem with that, in fact it could be interesting. First he shows up in his 'work' clothes; old long sleeve t-shirt sporting the fire companies logo and raggy over-sized work pants (complete with a slight smell of smoke). Then he proceeds for the next 4 hours, to explain EVERYTHING he knew about, liked about, and experienced in this job. Including a lecture that started with "You know, not too many people actually know what to do in a fire situation." If that wasn't enough, he proceeded to constantly touch my lower-back, just above my ass. after doing this for an uncomfortable hour, he asks "You don't mind me doing this, do you?" Needless to say that when he asked me at the end of the date if he should "give up now or expect a second date" I wished I could have lit his ass on fire!
