Searching for some summer love? You might be looking to have a nice, easy summer fling,but sometimes flings get more complicated than expected. Here are some pros and cons to consider before diving into your summer romance:
PRO: It’s no work. When you’re not expecting to get much besides a good time out of a relationship, you don’t have to worry so much about having those long serious talks.
CON: You don’t get to know the person you’re hanging out (and making out with) very well.
PRO: It’s super fun!
CON: …until it has to end.
PRO: It’s pretty easy to end; you both expect things to stop before school starts back up.
CON: But there’s always the chance that one of you gets attached, making things a bit harder.
PRO: But if both of you get attached, it could turn into something more…
CON: …but you probably don’t want it to.
PRO: You can work on your make-out skills.
CON: It can get old if you’re not super into the person.
PRO: You could become long distance friends with your co-flinger.
CON: Your co-flinger could turn out to be a total jerk.
BUT: Flings are a valuable life experience. Perhaps it’s something you just have to try to see if it works for you!
