8 Signs That Holiday Romances Are Not For You: Check Yourself.You don’t want to come back from vacation with a broken heart, do you? Then leave your rose-colored glasses at home. And to ensure that your holiday romance brings only pleasant memories, make sure that you have no “contraindications” to an affair on vacation.
Believe in miracles
The format of a holiday romance does not imply that the relationship will go beyond the vacation. Of course, there are exceptions, and positive thinking is worthy of all praise, but… it is better to have a miracle that you did not expect than the disappointment of the year. Vacation is needed to restore strength, and not to earn mental trauma, so if an affair takes you away for a few days or weeks, at least do not count on much.
You have a hard time dealing with breakups
After breaking up with your ex, did it take you more than a year to pick yourself up? Don’t rush into a love affair on vacation. First, it’s important to soberly assess the situation. Are you really ready for a casual, no-strings-attached relationship or are you just convincing yourself of it, knowing deep down that you’ll suffer for months after the breakup? A holiday romance is not for the faint of heart. It’s worth keeping this in mind.
You’ll be shocked by sex on the first date
Let’s be honest, most holiday romances are built on wild sex: the heady atmosphere of vacation, loose clothes and tanned bodies are conducive to intimacy. If you expect to satisfy a new acquaintance with just conversations over the course of a dozen meetings, there is a high probability that he will stop communicating without explanation. If you are looking for a serious relationship, make this clear right away to avoid misunderstandings.
You are already in a relationship
Many people look at a holiday romance as an opportunity to reboot and have fun. But when did cheating become the norm? Before you let yourself get carried away by a holiday boyfriend, think about how you would feel if your regular partner cheated on you. Unless you have an open relationship agreement, sleeping with someone else is a bad idea. A guilty conscience is not a great souvenir from a vacation, right?
You are naive and gullible.
It’s not that you’ll readily believe a new acquaintance’s tale about doing business in Dubai, but that perhaps he’s not driven by romance, but by cold calculation. Various swindlers and gigolos can deliberately find their victims – adventure seekers at resorts. What do you know except the name he gave and the address of the hotel where he allegedly stayed? Lose your head if you want, but not your vigilance.
You are curious
So, you are single, you realize that the romance will most likely be short-lived, and you have nothing against intimacy. In this case, oddly enough, curiosity can ruin a memorable vacation. We beg you, enjoy the bright emotions and do not try to find a guy on social networks. Firstly, there is a risk that you will not be able to resist and continue to follow his life after returning home. Secondly, a photo with his wife and children on the avatar can ruin your mood. If a man lied about his marital status, these are his problems, not yours
You always travel with a group
A single friend with whom you consciously set out in search of new emotions and impressions can be a good travel companion – you will be able to keep in touch for safety purposes and openly share your romantic adventures with each other. However, in a large company, not everyone will be able to understand why and with whom you “disappear” for a long time. And upon returning home, not the most pleasant rumors will begin to circulate about you.
You take a long time to make decisions
The ability to make balanced decisions after lengthy deliberation and comprehensive analysis can be a strong quality in “ordinary” life. A holiday romance is strictly limited by the duration of the vacation – you have a minimum of time. As a result, you either simply will not have time to enjoy a fleeting relationship, or you will blame yourself for rash decisions. In the end, if you need time to think, but want adventure, decide in advance before the vacation what is acceptable for you and what is definitely not.
