Summer may be ending, but if you want a serious relationship, keep courting him or her. Court this person because you’ve been courting them the whole time in the summertime. Court them so they knows exactly what you’re talking about. The best dating advice I can offer is to be open, loving, and present to continue this relationship.  To me, summertime is a great time to meet, but now it’s time to get down to the nitty-gritty, and get down to the beauty of what you can actually co-create together. Bring back memories of the summer.

It can easily continue into the fall. Follow my relationship advice and dating tips, and I assure you, you’ll be able to sing Summer Nights this same time next year.
