So, you feel like a “spark”, a guy with pyrokinesis. I don’t blame you, there’s something intriguing about people who can control fire with their minds and that dangerous bad boy vibe…wow. However, before you ignite your passions, I hope you’ll take a moment to consider these suggestions:
* Wear natural fiber clothing when you go out or stay at home. Synthetics tend to melt into the skin when burned. There is nothing romantic about emergency skin grafts.
* Every boy likes to feel admired. Give your spark a chance to show off for you. Candlelight dinners and romantic evenings in front of the fireplace work well. The possibilities for flaming drinks and desserts are endless, including Jubilee cherries, flaming Dr. Peppers, Suzette crepes, etc. And don’t forget the s’mores! One of the benefits of dating a spark is that she can likely cook, possibly even without a stove.
* Don’t leave him alone with your cat. In fact, you’re probably better off with a pet goldfish.
* Show your spark that you’ve noticed they’re special with a custom playlist or mix CD. There is enough “themed” music to suit any mood. For example:
Fire by Bruce Springsteen
Slow dancing in a burning room by John Mayer
burning love by Elvis Presley
hell disco for the bums
burning down the house by the Talking Heads
vine fires from Death Cab for Cutie
Burning up Virgin
Through the fire and the flames by Dragon Force
Turn on my fire through the doors
* Just because the can lighting fires with your thoughts does not mean that you do not have other facets. Be sure to ask him about his non-flammable hobbies and interests. That dangerous fire starter might also like to dance salsa or rock climb!
* Seriously, save the cat.
* Don’t expect me to be able to fix your car. Your spark may be mechanically inclined, but it’s not a good idea to get it too close to an open fuel line.
* An arson accident doesn’t have to ruin the evening. Consider adding a dash of potpourri or a romantic fragrance to your fire extinguisher. Maybe you can get a custom smoke detector that plays “your” song; Talking Heads (mentioned above) works great for this.
* Swimming pools are excellent places to get “hot and heavy” with a spark without the risk of sudden immolation. The jacuzzis work too. Oh, and showers…
* Try not to make him angry. You wouldn’t like it when he’s angry.
* Do you two have a date for Halloween? Combine your suits. Imagine what you can do dressed as a devil for your angel, or how about a fire and ice theme?
* If he says something like “You’re smoking,” keep in mind that he may not be complimenting your appearance. And, if you say someone is “on fire,” it may not be a comment about the person’s sexual orientation.
* Remember, G-positive traits like pyrokinesis are genetic. Make sure her family is comfortable with the idea of lighting the grandkids on fire before things get too serious.
