By Geanice Gee, M.A. 


Spring has past and now summer is here, but will also fade away into fall. But for now, the weather is hot, and you're most likely one of the many singles looking for a new summer romance. Things may not have worked out for you in the previous seasons. Your winter romance may have been bitter and frigid, while your spring romance may have been irritating.

1.      Engaging in outdoor activities. For example, you could take your date to a yard sale, which typically takes place in the morning; as you and your date go through someone else's belongings, you could use this time to get to know one another better while also finding items at a discounted price.

2.      Who doesn't like a nice summer picnic? Indeed, a picnic could be romantic and inexpensive compared to a restaurant. Again, this type of date gives you time to get to know your date better while also sharing a good meal in great weather. Remember to be creative when planning the picnic. 

3.      Other outdoor activities that could be fun include: boating; taking a trip to the beach and relaxing on the hot sand while also swimming or surfing in the water. Indeed, these types of outdoor activities could be adventurous.

4.      Going to the movies could be a good date. For instance, if a new film just came out that the two of you have been talking about, this would be a great time to go and see it. You could also try something different by going to outdoor screenings, or catching a classic flick.

5.      Food festivals, sporting events, state fairs, and wine tasting events at vineyards are all great places for summer dates. 

Furthermore, as long as you're happy with the person you're with, any place that you decide to spend time together will be worthwhile. These tips are provided to help you make the best of your summer dating experience.
