Love doesn’t follow rules. It follows weather patterns.
Welcome to “The Love Forecast Series”, where The Cynical Romantic unpacks the four seasons of the human heart — from spring’s delusional blooms to summer’s emotional heatwaves, from autumn’s quiet truths to winter’s painfully honest stillness.

This is not your grandmother’s poetic seasonal metaphor. This is the LL&S version: grounded, messy, lightly tragic, occasionally hopeful, and always self-aware.

Over five posts, we explore how relationships shift, wilt, revive, collapse, and somehow regenerate even when we swear we’re done. There’s humor, science, vulnerability, and at least one moment where you’ll think, “Oh… I’ve lived that forecast.”

Whether you’re newly in love, newly out of love, or permanently weather-worn, this series tracks the storms, the sunshine, and the emotional microbursts we call connection.

Bundle up. It’s a yearlong emotional journey.
