On dating sites, everyone says they like long walks on the beach. When I am at the beach, no one is walking down the beach, they are all sitting.

What gives?

[Is it actually a code only I don't know, about a type of sex or drug? ??]

I do like long walks on beach holding hands with the woman i am with.

Its code for, "this is what I think would very romantic, but I don't really do it, but I would like to."

Maybe in the older age range. I occassionally see millenials posting about liking long walks on the beach. They tend to focus on their gym rat or athletic lifestyles instead.

Great idea in a movie. But apparently they never actually did it. I’d prefer a nice float down the river. I think it really means they want a fantasy romance. I know I’ll come up short and don’t even try.

I thought long walks on the beach was the same equivalent to Netflix and chill on tinder. 🙂

Sorry but it is and we can't tell you.

Living by the beach, I walk it often enough but much prefer a quiet & sunny rock with a good book.

Ha!
I'm not a fan of long walks, or running on sand. It's exhausting. Also, a sand beach is as germ infested as the bathroom on an airliner. There, that takes care of this myth.

You need to be there at dusk and dawn....that's when the walkers walk....
before the crowds of the fat, lazy and sunbaked with their screaming crotchfruit show up.....

Sorry, my sister lives on the ocean in Palm Beach and I never miss a walk on the beach when I'm there. For some reason when with someone else I can walk on a beach for a long time and not notice the time or distance as I would on regular ground. When I'm walking I see others walking. Maybe it depends on the beach, crowds etc. Although I can recommend sex on the beach, the act not the drink, I actually do like to walk on the beach and do it whenever I can.

On a few Ive mentioned I'm not adventurous, I don't travel, and I do think like going to the gym. But apparently everyone else does

The gym, a place of self torture for an aduience where you try and out stink each other. So romantic

@Savage
I lift weights to develop muscle and gain strength. This allows me to do the things I love: hiking and running.

The gym is not a pick-up place. Nowadays, most people wear earplugs while working out. Earplugs are a giant "BUZZ OFF!" sign.

I can't take long walks on the beach. The water is over my head after only 5 minutes or so.

I'd love to walk on the beach or woods or anywhere! I hate the fact that it is a go to phrase so often. Would I like to? Yea! But I can't. I have MS, every step is a struggle. can we sit and talk?

I suspect it's equivalent to loving to walk in the rain. Really?? Maybe I'm afraid I'd rust, but I don't find that romantic, either. I'm afraid that a lot of people watch too many romantic comedies and assume that anything that happens in those make them sound like a good romance partner. Maybe there would be more matches if everyone was just honest about themselves. Like that's ever going to happen.

Odd. I walk on the beach and always notice other walkers...

In a word, Buttplugs, they are supposed to feel better when you are sitting on soft sand, at least that's what I am told..

all single?

That is very funny! Believe me I've been here all my life. There are people taking long walks on the beach. I like to do it myself as often as possible.

The term comes from a time period that long walks, holding hands and such on the long walk and in-depth conversation were valued. Hopefully the in-depth conversation is still valued. Nothing to do with sex or drugs.

Lot's of people also like clarify that they like nights in AND nights out. Almost everyone seems be into climbing too. My local climbing centre is just not that busy!

I just think a romanticized idea. It's a public yet tranqual setting to kick your shoes off and spend some time together. Just talking or saying nothing at all. Can be followed up with some dinner with some wine. Often leads to a romantic evening by the fire in a nice hotel with more wine. We all know where this is going. Que the 70s porn music.

How can people KNOW everyone says it and yet say it too?

I like the ones that say, "All my friends tell me I'm smart, funny, kind, and fun to be around." Sure they do.
