Summer shading is the new dating trend you need to be aware of.
Summer shading is essentially putting someone on the back burner or taking a step back from committed relationships for the summer (July- August) so you an enjoy the good weather, friends, travel, etc. It's basically the complete opposite of cuffing season, but when the fall and winter roll back around the person will likely get back into committed relationships. Just in time for the holidays and cold weather.
According to a dating app survey, 67% of people say they have shaded someone or have been shaded.
