I currently in Oregon for the summer. Where I am at is being blown up by fires. I reinstalled my tinder app to check out all the hot firefighters. I was only going to look but now I’m supposed to meet up with one wildland firefighter. We are trying to arrange a quick hey what’s up meet between his 16 hour shifts. He has two days off coming up, after working 15 days in a row. So we are trying. He moves around as much as I do and will be in the same area for he winter as I am. Which is not oregon. Lol.
I am hoping to meet him today on way back to the fire crew campsite. Eek. I’m pretty nervous.
I admire the sexual focus of this guy who is scheduling tinder dates in between his 8 day out of town firefighting shifts. Always be closing.
I’m just imagining this little commune of camp groupies hanging out in the smoky clearing next to the fire trucks lol…
@Trixyminx, how did it go? Did you meet up with him?
That sort of reminds me of Appalachian Trail thru hikers who are on Tinder. I don’t know if they’re actually looking for sex or just a place to crash and shower for a night. My friend was thinking of meeting up with one who was in this area but decided against it because he’d probably smell pretty bad.
@Copa, I think you know with the guy friend you had that it was a case of wanting what you can’t have, now that someone else has it. But more importantly, I’m curious why most on this site are okay with saying “aim higher,” “MOA,” “newsflash: drama” when Copa you said that this guy was trying to meet an 18 year-old while he was in a relationship? Why would you think that it wasn’t acceptable that he wasn’t over his ex, but didn’t mention again how he tried to hook up with someone while in a relationship? That’s not a red flag? I’m asking because you seem to be focusing on age. Finally, you mentioned your ex’s wife and beig in your social media…but so what? You’re the winner! Your ex and this friend of yours seem to be okay with hookups on the sly…aim higher!
It’s nothing, just an Instagram account I started a while back… someone was looking for a way to post pics for people to see, without giving their identity, so I said just start a finsta (fake insta, look it up, all the kids are doing it). Then because I was bored, I started one myself that is all drinks. A few people were into it. I could use it to post pictures of things like KTFran’s wedding, potentially.
@katesfinstaaaaah
@ChimingIn I focus on his dating younger women because that’s what he’s been up to recently. Cheating on his ex was a crappy thing to do, and yes, it was a red flag then and it’s still a bit of a red flag now. But that happened like two years ago. And yeah, I wouldn’t date someone who told me point blank they’re emotionally unavailable. But that was over a year ago. Am I supposed to assume that’s his permanent state of being? Are people who make mistakes terrible and undatable forever because they made a mistake? As for my ex’s wife… I brought it up because it’s f’ing weird. He cheated on me over three years ago so it’s safe to say I’m no longer “aiming” for him.
yay hot firefighters!
@ktfran congrats and I hope we get so see a picture!@copa anything new with axe throwing guy?
I had date number four on Saturday and it lasted 9 hours and we spent the last hour making out in my car because my roommate was sitting in the living room and I didn’t know how to signal to her to go away lol. Date 5 is this weekend in his town and he’s in charge of the details!
Unrelated – went on an interview yesterday for what might be my dream job (wine is involved) and i think it went really really well! Also have another interview this week so when it rains it pours!
