      ADD FUEL TO THE FIRE- to make a bad situation worse.


      Usage- I was already angry with you and when you forgot to pick me up that really ADDED FUEL TO THE FIRE.
      History- thousands of years ago the famous historian Livy used this expression.


      A similar expression is- fan the flames.
