How to Make a Summer Fling Last

Summer, the blessed time of the “long vacations” will end for many of you and temporarily fade into the shadows to return full of promise next season. The warm and mysterious atmosphere of summer and vacations is visibly fading and we will soon have to get back to the coal of everyday life!

The inevitable return home that is nevertheless looming on the horizon will perhaps bring back heavier baggage than expected and within it, on the lookout, questions, each more complicated than the last but which require clear answers:

So what am I going to do with this holiday romance that drove me so crazy ? What am I going to do with my handsome lover?

This article will not “coach” you in your feelings on the heart side but will help you to take enough of a step back to improve your life still full of promise. Good choice!...

Step No. 1: Take stock of your situation and your hearts without compromise!

This summer assessment of feelings is a must! A little trapped in your desires for the unknown that has fulfilled you well beyond your expectations. Your summer love affair no longer leaves you to the point of sneakily undermining your daily life and insistently demanding the next step that should be given to this affair of the heart!

No more pretending, the time has really come to take a no-holds-barred look at this holiday love, to drop the mask that has comfortably protected you this summer and to finally expose yourself. It's time to strike while the iron is still hot. And to encourage you in your good intentions, I promise, it will be the same in the opposing camp!

So, what is the outcome? Positive? Negative? No future?

Would it be just another adventure among others and in this case, everyone will return to their usual activities without a second thought! Or could it be something else, deeper and brighter, that would deserve a little attention? No question of playing Russian roulette or throwing unpredictable dice on the carpet of chance! Living together means loving each other to better support each other, it is not a joke, it is serious that undermines - and not just a little - your freedom and your own privacy.

This “love” assessment of the summer, you will have to do it alone in your personal corner and without cheating on its future prospects. The pros and cons well weighed, you will return to the other without fear and without reproach, aware of the stakes but solid in the decision that you will have made to continue or not the adventure ... Daring to drop the mask without fearing the reaction of the loved one is not infamous! It is a commodity that is becoming increasingly rare these days ...

Our tips for making holiday romance last?

What courage and wisdom it takes to go back to square one and decide whether or not to continue the summer adventure! This affair of two hearts that don't want to leave each other seems to be on the right track! If you have decided to continue the adventure, it's a real marathon of "naked" love, completely naked inside and out, that awaits you with bated breath.

Here are our tips to put all the chances on your side and help you keep that holiday love for as long as possible.

Say goodbye to celibacy

Goodbye to the beautiful, still warm era when you probably posted the most favorable selfies of your handsome face on Tinder and social networks. How far away the handsome guy who surfed brilliantly this summer on his board to better seduce pretty girls seems! How just as far away the girl on the beach, blonde or brunette, redhead perhaps, who did not miss a crumb of the gentleman's ramblings! Times are changing and not only ... in the face of the whims of the weather and the vagaries of life! No mistake in sight, you are no longer single and the limits must be set to find a fair balance between the individual values of each and a loving collective, full of promises.

Heading for a reunion

If you have decided to become aware of what is really going on between you two, you must already make yourself available and prepare your reunion. Book him a plane ticket for an unprecedented romantic getaway or get invited by your host. We have plenty of ideas for romantic trips and destinations in a very specific article.

Accept the situation and sometimes the distance

You will have to accept the situation as it is, with perhaps this kilometer distance that separates you. The bet is not without risks but already sparkles with beautiful promises for the future. Show creativity and do not hesitate to reread Léa's story on the best way to manage long-distance relationships.

Reveal yourself, share everything, put “we”

Sharing everything, in bulk, with the other without losing one's true personality always proves difficult; as if by reflex, it is true that we camouflage each other insistently behind our face which protects us inside and out from any semblance of aggression or suspicion! Revealing yourself completely in front of the loved one, communicating with the other, these are tests that you will have to overcome at all costs with a certain courage ... and a lot of lucidity and intelligence. Reciprocity acquired of course on the other side of the mirror! A winning bet and a guaranteed bonus! Keep in mind that the essential thing in a life together that does not give up anything is not what one can achieve or not personally but what the duo will then accomplish together.

Accept the stakes and take on the challenges

It is impossible to move forward masked or half-stepping! You will have to take the plunge despite your doubts, fears and legitimate apprehensions. It will be up to you alone to accept your fragility, your emotions and your vulnerability that have been undermined. Whatever may happen to the couple that you intend to build step by step over time, everything will depend on the very strong symbol of your legitimacy, your freedom and your desire to succeed. In a holiday love story, an obvious source of the unknown and mystery, there are necessarily challenges to overcome, but the game of love over time is really worth it!

A fortiori, and for reasons x or y, things do not necessarily go as planned for a holiday romance that is nevertheless a source of great promise; life sometimes has some serious surprises in store, often unpleasant, and that we must overcome at all costs! Whether the encounter with summer love was happy or not, it turns out to be fascinating to understand and instructive for the future: we always learn something important from our past experiences, whether or not they are doomed to failure in a life that is far too short to feel sorry for ourselves!

As long as you are up for it, as long as you have an open mind to try the adventure, a holiday romance is always waiting for you somewhere. This holiday romance is not a myth! It will survive the distances and separations that complicate everyday life if you give it the ingredients it cries out for when the time comes!

In return, it will provide you, from meeting to meeting, from discovery to discovery, emotions that will follow one another at a hundred miles an hour and you will spend wonderful moments to build your future! A holiday love is never forgotten: kindly and confidentially put in the closet of lost opportunities if you deem it necessary, it will be filed without further ado in the kingdom of good memories. It can also become by a common force a gigantic path to happiness.

It's up to you two to decide his fate: life has separated you since a dream summer but now it challenges you to masterfully transform such a well-successful try (word of a rugby player!). No one else will do it for you! Good luck!
