Ooh, that sounds kinda\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What\u2019s the word?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Enticing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let\u2019s Get Into It<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n See, most would agree that the “real love season”<\/em> starts in the fall because you can cuddle up, drink hot cocoa, and wear pajamas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Very cute, very niche.<\/p>\n\n\n\n What about that summer air, that\u2019s warm, daring, and screams, \u201cLet\u2019s explore outside together.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n What if we build up to the “matching pajama” era with more intimate settings and the smell of fresh, warm chocolate chip cookies? With a vanilla candle burning in the background on the mantle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Spring is the season of love. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Outdoor dates to the latest restaurants with patios and balcony views, long walks along the river, picnics before sunset, and drinking Sanpellegrino.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Late nights under the stars listening to music, in the remnants of the smells of barbecue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You telling me you wouldn\u2019t want to do that with a boo?<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s the simple moments of being outdoors that create priceless memories. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Watching ball games at the stadium, eating nachos, and sipping on a cold drink. Fanning yourself with one of those paper fans or the $5 electric one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A Friday night baseball game doesn\u2019t sound too bad. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Or the afternoon ice cream shop dives, and then a walk around the city. Something to break the ice. Enjoy our time as one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There\u2019s nothing wrong with wanting to be in the house but get outside. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI\u2019ve spent all winter inside, starring at the walls eating $2 cheese from Aldi and drinking $10 bottles of wine. It\u2019s okay to get out a bit and order a side of fries.\u201d – C.Alilijah<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n You don\u2019t have to be \u201coutside\u201d at the club or bar; you can go for a stroll, head to the mall, the museum, or even to a social event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The goal is to get out of the house and take a deep breath of fresh air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This wouldn\u2019t be a Chandra Alilijah blog post if I didn\u2019t tell you that a date night is calling your name. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I know you have an outfit in your closet, daring to be worn. Something screaming, \u201cThis is the one! This is it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Wear that dress.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Paired with a patent leather skinny heel, or a pair of sandals that show your fresh pedicure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sure, wear it for yourself or out to dinner, but I bet you want to wear it on a date\u2026 it gives date night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Go on that date. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n According to this plan, we got the boost and reason the warmer seasons are the perfect time to fall in love, we have a few outdoor date ideas, and know to wear our sexy dress this spring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Now, do we wait for love to come knocking at our door, behind the sales rack, or do we just let it find us?<\/p>\n\n\n\n So, many great questions and concerns, but I would not be being honest if I said I had an answer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Opinion, yes, but a solid claim? Not yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n All I can say is let God do his thing, and maybe you will find yourself planning a spring activity in an appropriate outfit after all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Be open to possibilities, love truly reaches you in the most convenient, honest, and \u201cI knew it\u201d kinda way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cHow do you stimulate someone\u2019s mind?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n No, just don\u2019t grab my forehead and run your fingers along it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Talk to me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Guide me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Teach me something new. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Show me how you do. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Teach me something new. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Let\u2019s learn something new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Show me why you do you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Take me on a timeline. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Profess to me why it\u2019s you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Let me get to know ya. <\/p>\n\n\n\n With love,<\/p>\n\n\n\n C.Alilijah <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" *dare to welcome love in*<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8021,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"wprm-recipe-roundup-name":"","wprm-recipe-roundup-description":"","apple_news_api_created_at":"","apple_news_api_id":"","apple_news_api_modified_at":"","apple_news_api_revision":"","apple_news_api_share_url":"","apple_news_cover_media_provider":"image","apple_news_coverimage":0,"apple_news_coverimage_caption":"","apple_news_cover_video_id":0,"apple_news_cover_video_url":"","apple_news_cover_embedwebvideo_url":"","apple_news_is_hidden":"","apple_news_is_paid":"","apple_news_is_preview":"","apple_news_is_sponsored":"","apple_news_maturity_rating":"","apple_news_metadata":"\"\"","apple_news_pullquote":"","apple_news_pullquote_position":"","apple_news_slug":"","apple_news_sections":[],"apple_news_suppress_video_url":false,"apple_news_use_image_component":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1,376,6],"tags":[784,685,121,697,699,786,206,789],"class_list":["post-8014","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-posts","category-lifestyle-content","category-whats-new","tag-april-2026","tag-c-alilijah","tag-love","tag-love-letter-szn","tag-love-letters","tag-lovely-notes","tag-self-love","tag-spring-tales"],"apple_news_notices":[],"yoast_head":"\nThe season of love <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
