Women and Fire Fighters
Being recently divorced after 13 years of marriage, I joined eHarmony.com and started emailng with numerous women.
One was pretty cool. After 4 months of emails, I decided to drive 3 hours to have lunch with her. She was intelligent, witty, blond, and beautiful. WOW. After lunch we walked around town talking; then passed a fire station. Her 3 yr son was with us and I got the BRIGHT idea to see if a Fire fighter would give us a tour. This big burly guy said "sure" and proceeded to show us all the trucks and equipment. Fun for all was had. Since the lunch, we sent emails back & forth planning my next trip for next week. I'm thinking this is great! Someone like me who hasn't played the game for all these years has hit the jackpot with this wonderful woman. THEN YESTERDAY, I get a email stating that she and the firefighter had "ran into" each other, and now they want a relationship with each other!! And the email ended with the dreaded words...."I hope we can still be friends". Moral of the story: On a first date, don't go to a fire station. Last edited by chris; 11-11-2004 at 10:16 PM.. |

I mean, that sucks for not hooking up with her. She sounded like she had potential. But, |

Firemen are overrated. I think it has something to do with those big hoses they carry.

Damn! At least you will always be a cute story they talk about when people ask who they met.
Well, that sure didn't help, did it? |

I'd bet she "ran into" that dude when she went back to the fire station looking for him. Easy come, easy go.

My compliments to you on your quick analysis. It took me until about 3 hours ago to figure out that is exactly what had to happen. You know that the firefighter didn't write her license plate number down, not with a guy and a 3 year old. At first it was a shock, but now I'm laughing. Better to find out now than after 6 months of road trips. |

The 3 year old son part just hit me, too. I think Bob Dole has some advice for you.
