THINK THINGS MIGHT BE HEATING UP WITH YOUR CRUSH? HOW TO TELL IF IT'LL LAST LONG AFTER THOSE FIRST FIREWORKS...

Sarah Wassner Flynn
Is It Summer  L-O-V-E?

1. It’s Friday night. What are your plans?

A. You and bae will be at the movie theater checking out Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom and, if all goes well, snuggling up during the super scary parts.

B. Hitting your bud’s BBQ and, afterward, stopping by Cold Stone for banana caramel crunch sundaes with the crew (which, of course, includes your crush).

C. They’re kind of up in the air. Earlier in the week, your crush sent a vague text about getting together, so you don’t want to commit to anything else in case you hear something.

2. You’re at the biggest beach bash of the summer. Where’s your summer sweetie?

A. On their way, according to a Snapchat story.

B. Right by your side, holding your hand as you walk along the crashing waves.

C. On the opposite side of the volleyball net: It’s one-on-one, and you’re about to spike that sucker into the sand.

3. Spill! Where’d you meet your summer crush?

A. At sleepaway camp. During the girls vs. boys kayaking race, he, um, “accidentally” tipped over your kayak.

B. At a party. His friends challenged your gang to a Just Dance battle and you caught him scoping out your moves.
