I was thinking about something today and wondering where to post it then Wang Casserole tried to plug his stupid video again with the "what's your worst break up" thread.
Okay, so is there anyone who's in their 20's, single, and travels quite frequently on here aside from me? I'm 25 yet have traveled quite a bit for tours among other things were I'm out for months at a time so it happens quite frequently that I meet someone then we spend a few amazing days together but I've got to keep moving on. A recurring trend is that even in say a month's time said girl has found someone else that she's started dating when I'm thinking of maybe visiting her again. So the question is do you think it's just in most people's nature to get into relationships so fast? And when it comes to long distance relationships what do you think the most distance/time apart is acceptable? Do you think one gender or certain age range is more prone to this? An interesting thing my friend and I were talking about the other day was that the further apart you are and the more time spent away from each other the more a person changes - depending on the age and differences in cities you live in they could have changed in great aspects since the last time you saw them.
I'm 24 and single and travel (but not as frequently). From what i've noticed, people from out of town are ALWAYS attractive/ interesting. Something about being from somewhere just for a while is appealing for those looking for one night stands and spending awesome time together, and rightfully so! Who would want to have an adventure with someone you know will leave? For the promiscuous it sounds like the perfect scheme if both parties are down, but if you're an emotional person prone to fall for someone then it'll be a hard time.
To answer your question, I don't think this is about people's nature getting in relationships fast, it's about you being a passer-by; just a person who happens to pass by their lives and their city.
When you travel, do you go with a mentality of "getting someone" or it just happens naturally? And when you're with someone, do you actually achieve the main reason you traveled, which is to enjoy the foreign lands and know the place?
I was in a semi-long distance relationship once; i saw her every weekend for a year. I don't know about the "the farther you are the more you change" aspect you mentioned, but age is definitely a factor, at least when he/she is around 17- 20.
People in that age range are the worse candidates to commit to a relationship; even if they want, they shouldn't because they'll end up fucking up and not for the sake to be a dick and fuck up, but mostly because that's the age when you want to be free and not give a single fuck about someone and experience other people.
making out, one night stands, flirting, attractions, drugs, partying, this age range in particular is very prone to all that.
i've noticed girls/ guys need to go through all that first before committing to a relationship otherwise they're likely to hurt you or simply fuck up one way or another.
You gotta be with someone mature if you want a mature relationship
I hope I kinda helped, those are my two cents
wish ya da best with your matters of the heart
