As the warm and vibrant hues of the summer give way to the more subdued palette of fall, some singles may find that their sizzling summer romance begins to show signs of simmering. The foundation for a lasting relationship can be developed by considering three stages that nurture long-term stability. They are:
1. Casual - Singles need to remember that in the beginning a comfortable and casual exchange of information, interests and experiences. Very few individuals respond positively to an over/under dater. Show interest in the “water” but do not dive in too the deep.
2. Core - After dating for some time, singles can proceed to the next level in solidifying their relationships. Consider more of what is at the core of your partner. Delve deeper into his/her mind in addition to the merits of the relationship. Ask more questions of yourself and your happiness within the relationship and ask more questions of the other person.
3. Connections - Start establishing rituals and connecting features for the relationship. What days will you spend together? What activities and events will you continue to attend together?
In the beginning, it can be challenging to transition from the more relaxed schedules present in the summer months, plentiful outdoor activities and elevated spirits that flow naturally through the summer breeze, to the differences that fall can bring about. People tend to socialize less and return to regular work activity levels. If you start with the right base, a relationship that is worthwhile will stand the test of time. So, approach summer with enthusiasm and if you happen to meet someone special, refer to these tips to improve your summer romance resiliency.
