About the author Yvonne and Victor share a common Italian-American heritage. Sharing these experiences made their marriage unique. Additional information Publisher iUniverse. He ended up staying for 4 months so I went over and visted him for few weeks. I had an awesome time. He then came back to oz where he intended on staying for another 6 months, then we were going to go to nz together and travel there. Due to visa problems he left early to nz.
My problem is that recently I visted him and he informed me he was going bike riding through India. I felt very hurt as I thought we were going travelling in nz. But I feel like he uses teavelling as an excuse. He never even discussed it with me. I read the others post and sounds like there is a lot of conversations and compromise going on which I feel is not in my relationship. I feel it is all his way with no consideration of me or how I feel. Am I being selfish? Would love any advice you have. I would love to travel, but am a bit of a scardy cat and would love to do it with someone. If anything, he has been the selfish one.
This is a great post. I need some advice. I always like to do a bit of math in these situations nerdy, I know. Another compromise might be that you go away for two or three months, and he comes to join you for a short portion of that trip, i. My GF is currently in Latin America writing her thesis. We both were very much fine, before she left. Of course she asked me at first, if I wanted to join, so we can make this experience together. We both never doubted, that we will get through this year. Well, she is now 1month away. We are together now for more than 3 years.
Made plans for the future, that we want to start our own business, being selfemployed, to travel and all and eventually settle down some place we have found on that journey. We have never been seperated for a longer period than days. As she left and I stayed behind in our apartment, not really being able to communicate with her, i felt completely lost.

At this weak moment, I felt like not being able to withstand that said 1 year of hers in Australia, if this is the feeling over the whole time. That of course struk her really hard. And she came to thinking. Now 2 weeks after this, when I told her about me feelings. I feel ok again. She thought to herself: Would I give up traveling for my relationship? And she came to the answer: I can understand this, since I encourage her as well, to take her time. She is afraid now, that she is not fit for me. Now everything is undecided with her, since she believes that a healthy relationship should push her at least to be struggling with such a decision.
The thing is, I already figured out a way, to join her all the way. Now I talked to my boss, and he was fine with me working remotely at the end of the world. I find it somehow normal, that she would not give up this urge of travelling for me. But there is no reason anymore to breakup since I would come with her all the way. Or do I go travel solo and have no friends really stuck on this one.
This raises red flags for me. I hope that you have talked further about this and come to a compromise or a solution. Just stay in hostels. My head feels lost right now. I have always loved the idea of travelling. I studied Travel and Tourism at college, and my dream was to be a holiday rep. I got accepted onto a recruitment course over in Majorca in the summer of , which made me ecstatic. He said if I go he will leave me. He is convinced I am going to cheat and has tried every trick in the book to stop me from pursuing this. I love him very very very much but I really do not know what to do.
He has basically forbid me from going unless I want us to end. I am not a therapist or an expert in relationships but I can tell you this — he sounds very controlling and manipulative. I wish you all the best, and I hope that you end up following your dreams. I really enjoyed reading this. I had an arranged marriage in my mid 20s and unfortunately never travelled much but I use to believe I needed a partner to travel.
I am single a now and planning to travel to sir lanka, your article really inspired me esp. Thank you for sharing. So i was single for 4 years and then I met my ex bf.. We traveled together in Europe I realized that it was really difficult to travel when he is around. He get tired easily due to his weight. If i talk about travelling.. To be honest…i want to settle down in the future..
And i want a bf that will understand me and support me if I am going to travel alone since there are circumstances that I cannot take him with me like long bus rides and hikes..

I totally agree with you. I never want to have those regrets either. I am 3 months home from a trip that I ended up extending…I had a great bf of 3 years that i loved to bits, we had shared interests, lived together locally and he was desperate for marriage and kids. He was 33 and I was 27 when we met, when i left i was My job was full on and I wanted to learn more, so I mentioned a trip to NZ a year prior, he broke down in tears and told me not to leave, so i agreed not to.
The urge to go hadnt left a year later and I applied for a work visa so I could work on a few cattle stations and learn. This application apparently spelled the end of us, as he told me after I had gone. Under a year later the woman he got with is pregnant, kids were his priority and I had felt slightly trapped by the prospect. SO, I have been devastated since I got home, as being away is a good distraction! My advice in a situation like mine would be…. One post above has worried me — being 50 without meeting anyone again!! Firstly, I think you had every right to go abroad, and as you said, the urge never went away.
Secondly, he gave his blessing. I honestly believe you did the right thing because, quite frankly, it sounds like the relationship would have ended eventually anyway. You even said you felt trapped by him. It hurts right now but trust me, you will meet someone else, maybe lots of other people. And one more thing. I know many, many people who are in relationships even with the distance or the time spent apart. We are completly jn love with each other and besides a few normal hiccups that every relationship has, we get along very well and are happy together.
At first he didnt even consider accepting the idea of having to move on from his hometown. But a few months of hammering it he finally realized it would be good for both of us to move there. Now he has been extending our deadline every month. My question for you is: How did you guys do with jobs at first? I will be alone, starting out a whole new life, that I wanted to have with him in the first place.. Hi there, I recently had that situation with my now ex. Except it was the opposite. He was the one who went traveling and not I. We met two years ago and I knew he wanted to travel from when we first started dating.
Honestly, neither of us planned to develop feelings for each other, but the connection between us was so strong that it almost felt like we had no control over it. Maybe there was a choice for him to stay with me and live life or go traveling, but I told him that I would never want to get in the way of his dream. Often, I encouraged him to go more than anything because seeing him happy over resentful made me happier.
I wished so badly that he would have asked me to come with him. Most of the time if his mom and him were having those conversations I would just excuse myself knowing full well what he wanted.

Our relationship was very independent, which is saying a lot since I was in a very dependent relationship previously and that was exhausting. I know he felt so deeply for me, and I him. He even told me how much he loved me as we dropped him off at the airport. This makes me sad. Because I have the money and the time to go travelling now. I would desperately love to, even for 3 weeks longer would be cool but 3 weeks would be awesome. So I have to squash a dream in order to stay with him and not have us break up.
When I look at blogs like this I just want to cry. Loved reading your post and totally agree. I have grown to love him very dearly, but from the beginning he knew I was and still am in love with someone else. To me, he was perfect because we both love to travel and do so in a similar way, but for now, I respect his desire to travel alone. He totally gets it and completely supports me. This trip to Africa has been on my mind since forever, but I never quite had the guts to truly think about it until a childhood friend of mine mentioned a potential spontaneous trip with her.
Being with A during these last 5 months has been wonderful, and I was originally planning to work until June, but circumstances changed and I find myself out of work and just wanting to go to Africa. It means putting my Africa trip on hold for a couple of months, and being with him in the meantime, which sounds lovely, he is amazing with me and encourages and supports my trip to Africa.
Should I just go and forget A? Is a couple more months to be with him healthy and still be able to do to Africa, just not quite now? I hope I described my dilemma.

I know this post is a little old but maybe someone might read and help! I have a dilemma where last year, single but bored of life at home I applied for a work visa for Canada. He had enlightened my life in every way and recently I told him the secret that I was thinking about Canada to work for a little while. My current guy has travelled and lived abroad extensively and he will probably travel or live abroad in the next few years again……he was with a girl for years whom he travelled with but if he is letting me go so easily, does he not care? Should I just go? Or stay and see what happens with him?
Does anyone have an easy way to choose? Hello, thank you for this article and for the responses people made. As a person born with itchy feet, traveling is a need, a desire, a hunger. And not just traveling, but living in other places, which I find different. He has always let me go away, abroad for long periods of time, I broke his heart twice, but now after all these years, here I am, abroad in Istanbul for three months after a year in another country, sitting at my desk, and sad because I do not share more things with him.
And the best thing, he has never asked me not to go, or to stay, despite all of this and we still love each other deeply although I left him, once again….. Thanks you for your words and for your insights…. Thanx for the article. I have been in a long term relationship with a guy that is from a diffrent country.
We met in italy as he was working for a year to milano where i leave and we met from a common friend. Also he is younger than me and he loves traveling a lot. I know that both love and trust each other and he realy wants to make it work even if we dont see each other a half year almost or so, that i am the one for him and wants to spend his life with me and marry me one day even if he is not ready to stay in a place yet.
A lot of times we argued about our together future, ending that both want to be together and this is all that matters. From the other hand we love each other and want to be together.
