Footy might not be coming home but at least the sun is! With over a month's worth of rainfall in the first week of July alone and the Euro to keep us busy, it's time for some overdue Summer Love.
Are you ready for some unforgettable Summer dates?
To kick things off we're launching our Rice n Jelly's Summer Love Campaign where we'll be sharing our weeklyChampion Date nights from The Indulgence Menu, and daily blogs filled with Summer date ideas for you to try, whether you're single or taken!
We're also taking part in the Not On The High Street Summer Sale and we've got a free Summer Love Bucket List for you to download and try before summer's over. Read below for more details....
So what is Summer Love?
“Summer love represents a break from the everyday routine, allowing people to step outside of their comfort zones and embrace new experiences”...
...explains Kristal DeSantis, licensed marriage and family therapist and author of STRONG: A Relationship Field Guide for the Modern Man...
…“It's a time when we often give ourselves permission to indulge in the realm of possibility and adventure, exploring relationships with a sense of spontaneity and freedom”...
…“The combination of warmer weather, longer days, change of scenery, and a relaxed atmosphere creates an environment where individuals are more open to experiencing heightened emotions and engaging in adventurous connections”...
How do we make the most of this beautiful time of year?
If you’re single and ready to mingle, you could be blessed with a sweet summer fling, but what if you’re open to meeting the right person?
Either way try to focus on creating treasured Summer memories by mixing up your dates — instead of just doing outdoor activities, think about fuelling those conversation-led outings or going for a spontaneous rendezvous. This’ll help you get to know each other better faster and see if you resonate with their sense of adventure, goals, and core values.
If you’re in a committed relationship, should you be letting the singles have ALL the romantic fun? We hope not! This is a time for new connections and experiences…No one (and yes, no one) has tried everything with their partner. Every novel experience you share is another opportunity to create a core memory, unlock new connections or evoke feelings from those honeymoon days.
So get creative, plan ahead and make the most of the romantic sunshine before it’s gone!
