There’s no doubt about it: summer is by far the hottest season. But just because you and your man are getting steamy by the beach doesn’t mean that your summer love will last until the fall. Sure, it can be exciting to be seen around town with something more substantial than a fruity cocktail, but don’t get the wrong idea. He may like hooking up with you, but by the time September rolls around, you may have to hang him up with your halter top.

Mostly A’s:
We don’t want to jinx it, but it sounds like you found the chupacabra of summer dating. He’s really into you, and is not afraid to show it. You should take this seriously, and probably try to lock it down. Think about bringing up your ring size in casual conversation, or asking to meet his parents.
Mostly B’s:
Go to a clinic.
