Is your favourite season the one you were born in?

Sorry if this has been done before. If it has I have missed it. I know there will be exceptions but it’s true for me. I was born at the end of July and my favourite season by far is summer (though I do have an appreciation for spring and autumn) My best friend was born in jan and lives for the winter.

Is this theory largely true or nonsense?

Definitely not. December baby and I hate winter so much. I do like Christmas but that is really because it's an antidote to the misery of winter.

mindutopia · 17/06/2025 21:58

Yes, actually. I was born in autumn and it’s my favourite season. I don’t particularly even like my birthday, but I love pumpkins and Halloween and everything hygge.

MaryTheTurtle · 17/06/2025 21:59

Born in Jan and my fav up until a couple of years ago was winter - now I hate the cold and I really like you cool crisps mornings on Autumn

MadisonAvenue · 17/06/2025 21:59

No, I was a July baby and Summer is my least favourite season.
Give me a bright frosty day and I’m happy.

Bccbonbon · 17/06/2025 22:00

Yes. Autumn.

FrillySocksAndDocs · 17/06/2025 22:01

Yes! Born in winter

marmitegirl01 · 17/06/2025 22:02

No summer born. Autumn favourite

Norugratsatall · 17/06/2025 22:10

Yes! Born in Spring.

DontTouchRoach · 17/06/2025 22:20

I was born in winter and I like autumn and winter equally. Nobody else in my family favours their birth season though.

babystarsandmoon · 17/06/2025 22:21

I was born in spring and it’s probably my favourite time of year but I do enjoy autumn.

ThatsNotMyTeen · 17/06/2025 22:23

Yes; spring. I love when my birthday is

saraclara · 17/06/2025 22:32

Jeeze no. I was born in mid December, and I hate, hate, HATE it getting dark at 4ish.

I love May and June. Especially June for the long days.

cadburyegg · 17/06/2025 22:33

Yes for me. Born in summer. Love everything about summer. Loved never having to go to school on my birthday. Love the summer holidays with the kids. Love the warm weather. Love the beach. Love the long days. Etc etc.

ninjahamster · 17/06/2025 22:34

No, born in spring, fave is winter.

Yellowtrouser · 17/06/2025 22:34

Yes. Born in summer. Love the sun and wearing summer clothes and flip flops

GalaxyWasOnOffer · 17/06/2025 22:38

I was born in autumn (start of October) & I find Sept & Oct the hardest months of the year. I love the summer. I hate autumn as I know summer is over & I’ve got to get through autumn (usually dreary), winter (ugh) & spring (usually dreary) before it’s summer again. So preferring the season you were born in is definitely not the case for me - quite the opposite in fact.

DappledThings · 17/06/2025 22:39

Born middle of June. Hate summer. Hate the long nights and it being light way too late. Hate any temperatures above about 22/23.

So it's a no from me!

ArseInTheCoOpWindow · 17/06/2025 22:41

Late November. What’s to like? Short days, fog and cold.

Spring is my best season.

socks1107 · 17/06/2025 22:42

Yes autumn

Arran2024 · 17/06/2025 22:45

Yes. Sep here and autumn is my favourite.

mindingmyown37 · 17/06/2025 22:45

My fave season is spring, I was born in April 😅 but I’m also partial to autumn, basically when it’s not too hot or not too cold. I hate the heat so as you can imagine I’m suffering right now, but I hate wearing jackets and in autumn unless it’s raining I can get away with just a hoody 😅

1000DayChallenge · 17/06/2025 22:49

July baby, but not a summer person at all

MadamePeriwinkle · 17/06/2025 22:49

Yep. Late September born...absolutely love Autumn.

I hate the heat, get awful hayfever and am not particularly outdoorsy so as soon as the temperature goes above about 20 degrees I'm done with summer and desperate for autumn to roll round.

Noodledog · 17/06/2025 22:50

God no, I was born in January. Nothing to like about January.

TheLeadbetterLife · 17/06/2025 22:52

I'm a late autumn birthday but drizzle, dark at 4pm, layers, hot chocolate and curling up on the sofa can all go and fuck themselves.

I want to float around in a kaftan because it's been sunny all day, and is still 25 degrees at 11pm. Like I'm doing right now.
