I remember Colin left a similar comment on one of these posts and I mentioned in my ebook of this series I just released. It’s an interesting concept-a nicer way to end a relationship than usual.

My ex and I just split up so he could go on and travel the world. Traveling is something I’ve done a fair amount and want to do long term soon, but I have a lot of loose ends in the states to tie up first. Going with him wasn’t ever even a question.

That’s been tough. There are things you wrote about that I wish had been discussed or considered. But ultimately, for us, at this point in our lives, breaking up was the only answer.

So we threw a party. http://exilelifestyle.com/lifestyle/throw-breakup-party/

Awesome relationships should end awesomely.

It is hard – I’m pretty introverted so it had always been difficult to travel with others for me. Even with friends, etc. I prefer being solo on the road but I met someone I just couldn’t resist!

You’re absolutely right, it takes someone with a similar outlook, desires, and you both need the ability to be flexible for each other (like when one of you needs alone time – some more than others!) I’ve been really lucky in that regard.

Stay single! I love being by myself when I travel. No “other”” to consider, I can do what I want when I want. Of course, now and then it would be nice to be able to turn to a partner and say “Honey, isn’t that beautiful,” but I think it takes a very special husband or wife to handle long-term travel. All in all, the benefits of being solo far outweigh benefits of a relationship.
