Claim To Be Every Missed Connection On Craigslist

You know the Missed Connections section of Craigslist? Where some guy or gal is looking for that person they caught eyes with on the train, at the mall, at a concert, etc. You can get a love match super quickly when you respond to the posts and claim that it was, in fact, you who shared that special glimpse. Sure, they'll realize that it isn't you when you show up for that date, but maybe starting off a relationship with a vicious lie might not be so bad.

Like All Of their Facebook Photos

Become mutual friend with your crush on Facebook, then proceed to like every single one of their photos. Yep, even the ones from freshman year. That way, he'll know that you're interested.

Become Very Observant

A little stalking—I mean, a little practice becoming more observant is super informative. You can find out so much about your summer crush this way. Plus, knowing their schedule and always happening to be in the same places as them is totally cool and not creepy.

Take On An Alter-Ego

Deception is the key to happiness. Pretend to be somebody way cooler than your actual self. You can be a French girl who is visiting on an exchange program who happens to have a really terrible French accent. It'll be super alluring.

Eliminate The Competition

It's a jungle out there, ladies. Make sure you get rid of your competition. Nothing too crazy or violent, of course...just implement a few things to slow them down, like surrounding their house in barbed wire. Keep it simple!

Serenade Your Way To Their Pants

Stand outside the window of your summer crush and sing to them. If blasting Peter Gabriel worked in Say Anything, then your tone deaf rendition of TSwift's "You Belong "With Me" will work wonders.

Show Off Your Selfies

Send him/her every single one of your selfies. Yep, I'm talking the bathroom shot, the one with you and your breakfast and the artistic shot of you looking thoughtfully into the distance. Make sure that you send extra duck-lip photos, because those are super cute and not tacky at all.

Get Serious And Discuss Marriage

You need to make sure that you and your summer fling are on the same page. And what better way to figure that out than to talk about your future wedding. Don't leave out any details, including the color scheme of the napkins.

Leave Your Number In Public Places

Since you're really desperate for some summer loving, leave your number everywhere. Leave it in a public restroom and mailboxes. If you can afford it, try renting one of those airplanes that writes messages in the sky. You're guaranteed to get a sweet hook up.

Be Yourself And See What Happens

Summer flings are fun, especially if they happen spontaneously. Instead of desperately searching for some summer romance, just go with the flow and see what happens. It'll be way more rewarding and less of a headache.
