Ultimately I decided I want to be single on my Mexican adventure.

Posted by Hotkiss (aka hotkiss7348) Jan 12 '10, 11:52

It's not at all because I plan or look forward to hooking up with people when I'm there. (No, really, it's not.) It's mainly because I don't want to be weighed down by massive boyfriend responsibilities back home. I never wanted to go on this trip with a boyfriend in mind, and because I didn't want to go on cheating him or myself, I had to let him know I still stand firm on my decision.

There's some other stuff that I came to realize we're not all that compatible about, and Mexico made me realize it's not worth dragging out.

I think most of us have been in a situation like this. Good for you. - con_carne Jan 12, 11:57 11
- If you can't travel when you're in a relationship because you're worried about meeting someone while travelling you probably shouldn't be in any - Stephen Jan 12, 12:06 1
  - If only we knew these things going into a relationship. We don't. We never do. -- nm - con_carne Jan 12, 12:10
- not me. but i'm a 7 weird -- nm - fatsquatch Jan 12, 11:57 8
  - Look, when you travel, you want to leave your life in order for when you return, right? -- nm - con_carne Jan 12, 12:00 6
    - So you trash a relationship before you leave? -- nm - Spawn: Champion of ST Jan 12, 12:01 5
      - she's not trashing it. she's being honest and straightforward about her needs. -- nm - znufrii Jan 12, 12:02 4

  - i think when you are ready to be single, you find a reason (everyone does it). So, it's probably good she's doing it now. -- nm - Andie Jan 12, 11:58

    - (is this shorter and less of a big deal than I think it'll be?) -- nm - Hotkiss Jan 12, 12:01 6
      - Two months is a long time....that will pass in a flash. Only you know how big a deal it would be. - musubi Jan 12, 12:03 2
        
        thanks mushu. And I'm actually quite surprised at the lack of ST hatey I'm getting. -- nm - Hotkiss Jan 12, 12:06 1
        
        We love ya, kid....well, as much as a group of (mostly) internet strangers can. - musubi Jan 12, 12:10
      - 2 months is a long time for any relationship, unless you're like married -- nm - con_carne Jan 12, 12:03
      - only you can say for sure. if you don't feel like you are up to the challenge of maintaining a relationship during that time, well, then, that's that -- nm - Andie Jan 12, 12:02
      - that's a pretty good trip, and it's right if you feel it's right. -- nm - loosilu Jan 12, 12:02
You should leave the country without telling him and see what crazy messages he leaves in your voicemail. - Max Jan 12, 11:54 1

sounds totally reasonable -- nm - Dano Jan 12, 11:54
good for you. -- nm - znufrii Jan 12, 11:53
Just have fun and sleep around. No need to have be locked in at this point. -- nm - Don Homer Jan 12, 11:53
