  • Summer Loving

    Miss Antelope

    Summer is the time of year when not only the weather gets hot, but so do many people's emotions and hormones.  My only problem is, as much as I would love to be a free spirit and venture out and get wild, I've always been a relationship oriented gal.  When it comes to relationships, I'm golden.  Yet, random hook-ups just don't do it for me.  I like the idea of having that special someone who will always be there for me, regardless of whether it's summer, spring, fall, or winter...although I do love summer and I'm always up for the unexpected.  I always try to keep an open mind.  I actually did meet one of my ex-boyfriends over the summer.  What I thought was just a summer fling turned out to last for over a year. 

    What are your thoughts on summer love? Is is all about enjoying the moment or should one avoid it altogether?

    Summer love?  It all just depends if you meet the right kind of guy that makes your heart melt.  But then again, I don't do flings either.

    It's cute. I'm pretty indifferent to it though.
    However if its one of those situations where you go on vacation away from home and you meet up with a guy I'll probably be annoyed by the unrealistic idea that you could continue anything after the summer finished.

    summer love.... enjoy it while it lasts, but don't plan from it. it could potentially survive past the summer, but the majority of the time it doesn't.

    It is what it is.   How can you write what you might feel at any given moment of any day for the rest of your life?  I'm not into cheap, loser sex but what if?.......

    I've had, lets just say more than dozens of these types of experiences, some, I regret but for the most part, had some extraordinary experiences that I wouldn't give up for anything in the world!!!

    You will never know until you try  it?  What do you have to loose if you aren't dating anyone at the time?  It's not like you are going out looking for sex?   But what if?.....you happen to run into this really great guy?  It's late, he hasn't been graveling all over you, just staying with the conversation, enjoying your company and you are really getting a feeling deep down inside, that you really want to be with this guy but you know you will never see him again? 

    Do you have any idea what you are missing?  There have been experiences that totally have blown my mind, especially on vacation on a coastal beach.   How many opportunities do you have to have umhummm in the Golf of Mexico or the Atlantic, Pacific, Medditeranian????

    It is a totally incredible experience!  You will never know until you try it?  You will know the feeling I am talking about.  It will control your whole body until you tremble and shake. And then------------------------>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> YOU EXPLODE IN SHEAR  EXCTASY.

    It is the excitement of the unknown that does something internal that you will never experience in a loving relationship.  I can compare it to a first kiss with someone you are totally into!!!!!  There is nothing like that first kiss is there?  So, you have this erotic anticipation of  what you will feel, how you will react to the touch, scent, sounds taste....
    It's all new and exciting so your senses switch to overload and that happens BEFORE FORPLAY!!!!!!! 

                                         GET THE PICTURE???????????

    hmm, I'm sure there's a people that enjoy it, but I guess I wouldn't want to do that. I'm just glad I have a boyfriend- spring, summer, fall, and winter :)

    I don't care about the season. My friend wants to create some kind of relationship with this boy in Japan when she has less than two months in the country. Pointless? Maybe. There's still the possibility that this could extend to an LDR, but even she thinks it would only last until it goes home. I think she's just anxious to be in love after many years of being single, but it's her choice.

  • UnopenedSuitcases@xanga

    i am definitely liking summer love better than summer fling. :]

    hmm. never had a summer fling before. tho i will say i'm willing to try, but i'm more of a long term rel kind of girl hmmmm

  • roooosah@xanga

    you just can't help having those feelings in the summer. The heat, the humidity, and less clothing just creates that atmosphere. Generally, summer love/flings don't last. It's all in good fun! 

  • kor_girl@xanga

    there is a saying that my guy friends often say: "summer is the best time to be single!" and most of my girl friends seem to concur as they say: "I get into a relationship usually as the weather gets colder." 

    On the average, in theory, my experiences exemplify that I get into a relationship quite a bit during late Fall season. My last relationship was an anomalie since he and I met in Spring (may last year). I'm usually just 'dating' in the summer without the intent of being single but that's how it happens. lol
  • xx0behindthesmile@xanga

    i think the point of summer is to relax and not think about it so much. i would like to meet someone this summer, or pursue something with a certain someone when i hopefully have more time to see him this summer, but i'm not putting pressure on myself or situations. i feel like love - any type - will come to you when you least expect it. so for this summer... not really looking too hard, just going to enjoy myself. everything happens for a reason, so we'll see how it goes. i won't say no to either, really, as long as it's what i'm sure i want at that given time.


    to each his own, i suppose.

  • superGchik@xanga

    actually never really had a summer loving, always been in relationships that are long term so now that i'm not in a relationship, i'm kinda wanting to test out what summer loving's all about.  it think it'll be fun and who knows, it could turn out right.

  • happyobligations@xanga

    I didn't expect to, but I'm living it.

  • MOOOOOOF@xanga

    summerrrr lovingggg, haddd meee aaa blasttttt ♥

    i don't really have any views on summer love.
    but this post reminded me of Grease.
    i'm totally watching it tonight.
    thanks for the reminder. (:

    Like you, I'm a relationship oriented girl. Even dating around when I'm not in a relationship is hard for me because I feel like I'm cheating on all of them. I'm strange I know. So I don't do "speed dating" or something like that. I don't get the point. And Summer flings don't do it for me either. If I start a relationship I expect to be in said relationship for the long haul. That's just me though.

  • MissSmartHottie@xanga

    If you're young, single and pretty...


    JUST ENJOY THE MOMENT !!! You only live once and you'll regret it in the fututre, when we can't have random interesting random hook-ups ...


    You never know who you might meet ...

    As a high school post graduate student, I wouldn't mind a summer fling. I think I might be slipping into one at the moment, but as I am about to be a first year in college, its probably better. We're all going to different schools, we'll be busy with studying, and this is probably one of the last free-spirited summers I'll have. The following college years of mine will consist of summer school, most likely, and a load of other crap. (sigh) I think I'll miss high school a lot.
