It’s not just us who thinks so though. Match.com talked to anthropologist Helen Fisher, Ph.D. (author of Why We Love: The Nature and Chemistry of Romantic Love) who said, “Summer is a time of plenty, a time of less stress, high nutrition and comfortable weather.

We’re in a position to make a long-term commitment now.” Whoa, right? Knowing this, perhaps it’s time to stretch your flirtatious muscles and explore the possibility of getting involved with a special someone while the season is right.
