I came upon this article and thought it was cute. They are good reasons to be single this summer... I hope they make a list for fall.. haha If not I'll be lost!
It's a new season and maybe, despite the beautiful weather, you're bemoaning your single state. Do you think everyone found love in the spring? No way. And to help you celebrate, rather than curse, your single state, here are the top ten reasons why the summer is a good time to be single:
10. “The Vacation Excuse”
If you can't find a date, you can explain it by believing that everyone is on vacation...whether they really are or not!
9. "Frugal Forays"
In the summer, there are always lots of free events. These are great places to either meet someone (why pay up before you know what the field will be like?) or to take a new date (keep the cost/risk factor low).
8. "Vacation Excuse, Pt. II – Summer Romance"
The summer is a perfect time for a rejuvenating fling. Go on vacation, swim in a new sea of singles, and enjoy a carefree romance.
7. "Close Encounters"
With a lessening of clothing, there is a lessening of barriers... to conversation as well as contact. People are more relaxed in the summertime and, therefore, easier to approach and engage in conversation.
5. "Reinvention Channel"
In the summertime, you can reinvent yourself. You leave your winter persona behind and suddenly you're the art-loving sophisticate, the softball-playing babe, the grillin' and chillin' hostess – or all three. Why limit yourself? Opportunities abound!
5. "Daylight Savings Time"
Your date can now go on and on if you want it to. Instead of cutting it short because the onset of darkness makes you think it’s later than it really is, the extended play of summer works in your romantic favor.
4. "Natural Prozac"
Face it, you're happier when the sun is shining and the flowers are in bloom. Now other available singles can see you for the glad gal you really are, rather than the S.A.D. sack you might've been in the winter.
3. "Eye Candy"
In your single state, you can enjoy (as well as potentially sample) some of the lovely eye candy that abounds in the summer. Think about those cute chicks in shorts and the gorgeous gals in summer frocks and you've got the picture.
2. "Hot, Sweaty Contact"
Yes, there's something very sexy about sweat. I'm not talking “stuck-to-your-neighbor-on-the-subway” kind of contact, but the kind of intimate encounter that is hot, hot, hot – in more ways than one!
1. "More, More, More"
You, the sexy, single siren, are free to be wild. Enjoy those barbecues, rooftop parties, Pride festivities, and everything else. You can party with the best of them and enjoy every minute. Your lust for life will be contagious; someone's bound to catch on!
