Esteemed readers, let me welcome you to… All the cool girls are doing it.
And by all the cool girls, I mean Kendall Jenner.
Its like they needed the break to miss each other enough, another insider told the press.
Of course, Kendalls not the only one at it.
(Shes nowlinked to PC Valmorbida.)
They were linked for monthsuntil she revealed on Instagram that shes single again.
Now, I can imagine you might have your doubts about Get-Back-With-Your-Ex Summer.
And my answer to that is:yes.
Winter is for thinking about stability and the future; summer is for silly decisions and shagging.
Of course, theres an elephant in the room.
But dont worry about all that.
Might as well just have a laugh and see where things go.
And its a fine tightrope to tread.
Are you going to get back together with someone who cheated on you or totally disrespected you?
If your friends despised your ex last time, will you be giving things another go?
And when it comes to kicking things off?
There are some easy guidelines to follow.
Not chic: spending hours stalking your exs social media profiles to work out if theyre single.
Chic: bumping into them on a dating app and confidently swiping left.
Not chic: sending a groveling message, telling your ex you want them back.
Not chic: spending hours messaging mates to get their opinion on what you should do.
Essentially what Im saying is: dont push it or obsess over it.
Be a Samantha rather than Carrie.
Thats what July and August are for.
That feels like a very poignant way to leave this earnest and not at all silly article.
I hope you have found it informative and inspiring.
And, most of the time, thats a good thing.
Lifes not about the destination, after all.
Its about the exes you make (and then revisit) along the way.
