10 Ways to Meet Your Summer Fling

Summer... days filled by the poolside, getting a tan, going on vacation, hanging out with friends and best of all... summer flings. There is nothing wrong with having a short summer romance as long as you keep in mind that it is what it is, a short bittersweet fun fling that will end when summer does. You may be wondering where to meet your next possible fling at. It's not hard to meet people so follow the tips in this article on ways to meet your summer fling.

#1: Hit the Beach

If you're vacationing by the seaside, then hit the beach. There are probably tons of other people vacationing there as well and some of them have the same thing in mind that you do... a fling! Don your best swimsuit, get some rays (with lots of sunscreen of course, better yet ask a possible fling to put the sunscreen on for you!), splash in the water and look like you're having a carefree time. Sooner or later someone will notice you and of course there is nothing wrong with approaching someone first.

#2: Dress Summery

Wear summery and flirty wear and you're sure to catch someone's eyes. If you dress from head to toe, you're going to look approachable. You don't want to bare it all but giving a tease is OK as long as you do it tastefully.

#3: Go to Clubs in the Evenings

Going to clubs in the evenings is another great way to meet a summer fling. Just be sure not to get super intoxicated because you'll send out the wrong message and could be taken advantage of. Have a drink or two (or better yet, try a non alcoholic drink) and check out who is available.

#4: Don't Say No to a Summer Party

Summer parties are pretty popular. People like to celebrate the beginning of summer, the fourth of July, etc. If you're asked to a summer party, attend. You'll be able to see who is there and if anyone meets your fling criteria.

#5: Get Set Up

Still not finding the perfect summer fling? Ask friends to set you up. Blind dates aren't always horrible and one of your friends may know someone who will be perfect for you to hook up with.

#6: Relax

Does the idea of finding a fling make you nervous? Relax. It's OK to have a summer fling. You're an adult. Live a little, have fun and relax. If you're high strung, no one is going to approach or say yes to you.

#7: Lose the Friends

Lose your friends...at least sometimes while you're outdoors or at events. Friends are great to have as backup but they may also make you seem unapproachable. Give yourself at least twenty minutes alone when you go out with friends so that someone will feel comfortable coming to you.

#8: Don't Give Your Life History

When you have a candidate for a fling right in front of you, don't give him/her your life history. Just stick with the basics, name, age and maybe where you are from and what you do. More details aren't really needed. It's just a fling; you won't be walking down the aisle. Don't scare someone off with too many details.

#9: Give Compliments

Everyone loves a compliment. Give someone your interested a compliment but not one that is sexual. Even if they want a summer fling, they probably don't want sex thrown in their face the minute they meet someone. That is a real turn off. Give a compliment on someone they are doing (like playing a beach game), what they are wearing, their smile, etc.

#10: Be Friendly to All

Be friendly to everyone. Being friendly is simply smiling at everyone and talking in nice tones. If you're short and crabby with everyone, no one will want to speak to you let alone have a fling with you. Be friendly and you'll find that more people will want to hang out with you.
