It's too hotttt. I like the part of summer that is my birthday - my birthday tradition is sushi with my few local friends - but I do not like the temperature part of it at all. I spend most of the season inside with the fan on full blast and finding any excuse to be in my nightgown.

I used to like going to the beach, but it's been a few years since I did that...

SUMMER IS...NOT GOOD FOR ME
i live where it's not only Hot, but it's been getting more and more humid each year and i'm not a fan. we didn't even have an AC unit until this year. and the AC helps a lot, but it's only in the living room, so any other room is still hot as hell. i have an actual medical allergy to the cold and i'd still rather be cold than warm. it's hard to do anything when you're hot, and i have a hard time doing even basic stuff like eating because i completely lose my appetite when it's hot... the one thing i have going for me is that it takes a lot of sun exposure for me to burn, my ancestors blessed me with melanin

i do like going to the beach though, and i'm going next weekend with my friends. i love swimming and doing other Assorted Beach Activities, so i always look forward to that. after that, summer can be over, right?

To be very honest, summer does notttt make me happy. Too hot, too hard to breathe, no appetite, no motivation, mosquito bites, etc. I'd rather just have autumn all year long lol, because that's my favorite season. I don't burn my skin often in summer, but that's only because I don't go outside as much at this time. When I do, my cheeks get red (from sunburns yes). I'd rather get a bit sunburned than wearing sunscreen.

It's no secret that I live in a frickin' desert where it's hot for pretty much 3/4 of the year. Nothing really changes because nothing I do actually helps me cool down if I'm being honest. I'd like to take a dip in the pool, but that doesn't help unless it's really early morning or late at night...and no, just no.

The only thing I like is that it gives me an excuse to eat ice cream, not that I need one.

I'm actually a total killjoy and I dislike the summer so much fjaklj. I just hate being hot and sweaty, so I'd much rather sit in a nice air-conditioned room until fall or winter comes. I know you can go swimming and stuff and it's like... temporary relief, but I'd much rather it be over than to have to sit and suffer through it. This feels like such a sad answer but jfkal I'M ALREADY SO WARM ALL THE TIME!! I run naturally very warm so summer is just suffering season for me ;w;

edit: i peeked at everyone's answers and I'm so glad I'm not the only one who dislikes summer LMAO

I like summer! I get depressed more easily when it's dark out so it's the perfect time for me to get things done, maybe I'd be more productive all year round if I invested in some brighter lighting lol. I love staying up too much to ever be a morning person but everything is just a little nicer when it's sunny :D Each year is pretty different but I don't spend much of my summer outdoors, I'm not partial to the typical activities.

longer days are the BEST thing about summer. it's not even a huge difference where i live because i'm further south, but even a couple more hours of light makes a difference. i did an exchange program over the summer in northern germany back in high school, and it was really cool that the sun didn't even start setting until 9pm at the earliest, and it didn't get fully dark until 10pm. i miss that

yeah for sure! i cant say ive been to germany but that sounds really nice :) i feel like days that long would mess with my sleep really fast, but it's fun to imagine being done for the day and still having more daytime after to enjoy ^^

I'm not a fan of hot weather... which sucks a bit, living in a place that is consistently 100-120 degrees in summer. OTL. I don't like many outdoor activities to begin with, but what also makes it worse is that I haaaaaate swimming, which is what a lot of people do to beat the heat. However, I guess I like cold drinks and ice cream/cold treats, so that's a plus... I guess I will say that as long as it's not deathly hot, the sunshine is nice, and it puts you in a good mood.

So I'm really ...... 🥴🤢 about summer. I dislike being hot, and I'm someone who gets hot very easily and very quickly. This topic is my antithesis lol, I hate everything about summer... Humidity, sweating, MOSQUITOS (!!!!!!) ....... To cool down, I really enjoy milkshakes and also eating Korean cold noodles.

I typically stay inside unless I really have to go out. I'm miserable otherwise. My bf bought me a neck fan that I use at work and it has been a GODSEND. I highly recommend a neck fan if you also work at a place where it gets hot quick.

i am super average about summer but this year's summer is super hot so i usually get inside and turn on the air conditioner. also, summer just get me sweaty all the time and that helps me lose some fat tbh :3 which i appreciate it now i am at like 60kg
(was at 65kg). abt sun tan, i don't like getting tan tbh bcz that i just have no point on doing so. my favourite part of summer are probably getting to do school work at home, i get ton of them do it would be nice to do this summer vacation + i get to go to the beach the water is really cold which is why i enjoyed it

I don't mind summer AS LONG AS there's air conditioning. It's nice to be able to go outside in just a t-shirt or whatever, though obviously like everyone else I haaate when it gets TOO hot and it's all humid and sticky. If summer could just stay at a nice 75 degrees or something with a nice breeze that'd be great. I also love soft-serve ice cream so summer is my only chance to get it before everywhere closes for the fall!!
