Do Not Date A Girl Who Travels
„She’s the one with the messy unkempt hair colored by the sun. Her skin is now far from fair like it once was. Not even sun kissed. It’s burnt with multiple tan lines, wounds and bites here and there. But for every flaw on her skin, she has an interesting story to tell.
Don’t date a girl who travels. She is hard to please. The usual dinner-movie date at the mall will suck the life out of her. Her soul craves for new experiences and adventures. She will be unimpressed with your new car and your expensive watch. She would rather climb a rock or jump out of an airplane than hear you brag about it.
Don’t date a girl who travels because she will bug you to book a flight every time there’s an airline seat sale. She wont party at Republiq. And she will never pay over $100 for Avicii because she knows that one weekend of clubbing is equivalent to one week somewhere far more exciting.
Chances are, she can’t hold a steady job. Or she’s probably daydreaming about quitting. She doesn’t want to keep working her ass off for someone else’s dream. She has her own and is working towards it. She is a freelancer. She makes money from designing, writing, photography or something that requires creativity and imagination. Don’t waste her time complaining about your boring job.
Don’t date a girl who travels. She might have wasted her college degree and switched careers entirely. She is now a dive instructor or a yoga teacher. She’s not sure when the next paycheck is coming. But she doesn’t work like a robot all day, she goes out and takes what life has to offer and challenges you to do the same.
Don’t date a girl who travels for she has chosen a life of uncertainty. She doesn’t have a plan or a permanent address. She goes with the flow and follows her heart. She dances to the beat of her own drum. She doesn’t wear a watch. Her days are ruled by the sun and the moon. When the waves are calling, life stops and she will be oblivious to everything else for a moment. But she has learned that the most important thing in life isn’t surfing.
Don’t date a girl who travels as she tends to speak her mind. She will never try to impress your parents or friends. She knows respect, but isn’t afraid to hold a debate about global issues or social responsibility.
She will never need you. She knows how to pitch a tent and screw her own fins without your help. She cooks well and doesn’t need you to pay for her meals. She is too independent and wont care whether you travel with her or not. She will forget to check in with you when she arrives at her destination. She’s busy living in the present. She talks to strangers. She will meet many interesting, like-minded people from around the world who share her passion and dreams. She will be bored with you.
So never date a girl who travels unless you can keep up with her. And if you unintentionally fall in love with one, don’t you dare keep her. Let her go.“

Eine Antwort auf den Text…..
Date a girl who travels
„Here is one counter-argument (or self defense?) for the article „Don’t date a girl who travels“ (https://medium.com/better-humans/802c49b9141c) and I have to write some notes to save people who believe in this article (well, as I understood her points, but I just do not agree with it, man!
Her bare legs might have gotten bunch of mosquito bites (or bite from something even nastier), but she normally have effective mosquito repellent everywhere, but she is kind to let people use it when sun is going down slowly. And it has probably nice smell of lemongrass and effective. She probably does not put „proper“ make-up, or even she did in the morning, she does not bother herself going back and forth many times to ladies to keep „perfect her“ – because make-up does not cover much, and she does not completely change (or improve) by makeup. She keep her natural big smiles with some lines and spots, and she is OK with it. it’s her. She just want to laugh when some thing is funny, she does not have to locate in best position to assure best angle to make her looking beautiful. She already know the value of beauty. Yes, she has lots of stories to tell, and more over, she knows how to enjoy life with people around her.
Date a girl who travels. She is not as hard to please as you had imagined. It’s not all girls who want to go to fancy dine and expensive gift when it comes to date. When you take her Nandos, she does not blame you to be stingy, she probably tell you some funny stories she had when she was in Portugal. For her, going to walk in the park can be a bit fun, and for you, you have a great company who knows how to enjoy the moment without spending too much money. Yes, she will not be impressed or interested with/in your new car and expensive watch, but she will be all ears to your good ideas and jokes. Which do you think difficult to get? An expensive car or interesting story/funny jokes? If you have already expensive car and have no other interesting stories, then stick to barbie girls. It’s really not a matter what kind of car you have, or you don’t have but you just to have your own ideas which thrilled yourself, then she will be an excellent buddy.
Date a girl who travels because she will open new door to the world you have never expected. Not all girls want to go to shopping in Paris or fine dining in NY, she may ask you to go to place you have never heard of, or dreamed of going. But just check the place in google, and you may find something funky coming up. Why not. She is not asking you to be going there alone, you have her who want to share the excitement with, and you are not asked to take whole lead of this big summer date. You can make plan together. She suggest, you agree, and you guys plan (you can suggest too!). Don’t you think it is exciting? You don’t have to do everything to please your girl. She knows how enjoyable to do it with someone who have good heart to jump in the adventure. She will not go for expensive clubbing, and who knows, you may find somewhere in middle of nowhere might give you far fulfilling excitement than a Friday clubbing with bling bling people.
Date a girl who travels. She may daydream a lot, or she may not have (at this moment) a steady job, but she does not complain what she is doing now, and she is just creating exciting life stage. Having girl who have steady job and depressed, and a girl with no job but full of dreams – what’s your choice? And girls who travel who eventually finds value of the world and oneself tend to get very interesting work, which may not always be super highly paid, but she will love what she is doing, and she will be in good mood. If she is a freelancer, that is even better, she can make herself available if you tell her something cool. It’s even OK for you to complain about your boring job. For her who knows how to be creative in lives, she may be able to give you eye opening tips. She is not in the same situation as you do, but she has good imagination and bouncy spirit, and especially if you are a nice guy, she will help you.
Date a girl who travels. She is very likely educated, she studied and worked hard too, and after all those experiences, she found what she really wanted to do in her life. You may think she might have wasted her college degree and doing completely different, but she does not have to be teacher after she graduated from teachers‘ college. She might get another interesting job to inspire people, maybe yoga instructor or dive instructor, but it still makes people happy. She might not become lawyer, but she present good idea to inspire people, or support community. We all do what we wanted to do, cut off something we used to enjoy, and someone get what we really wanted in the end, some don’t. Well, some people just gave up half way because of age, social pressure, or „that’s the way it is supposed to be“ – it’s still OK, she is just different, and she is happy. She does not work like a robot, but I tell ya, she can if she is doing something that she is committed. A girl who travel a lot has very good physical and spiritual strength, and vision.
Date a girl who travels. She has chosen a life of uncertainty. Wait a min, no life has certainty. Even if you have job in government, or bank or highly paid trading company. Even if you have two daughters and healthy body, who said your life is assured? We all know what we have might not last forever. Life has no certainty. You are just trying to make it certain. If you are the one who loves scheduled life and want to make your today exactly like yesterday, yes, you do not have to change anything, but what she is trying to do is not complete opposite of life you have. She is admitting she is still halfway between, she does not give up something right now and she just continue traveling but it means she has big potential to get a different life. She doesn’t have a plan or a permanent address. She goes with the flow and follows her heart. It does not mean she will be lonely, poor and depressed. Instead she opened her wings and spirit and whole world is becoming her playground. She does not wear watch but she will know the value of time. She is true to sun and moon and all these seasonal changes. Her sensitivity and appreciation brings her very stable happiness in some point of her travel.
Date a girl who travels as she tends to speak her mind. She will never try to impress your parents or friends, but she will impress your parents or friends without even trying. She does not have to prepare or pretend to impress people as she has been talking to many people around the world, with different back ground, opinions and have intensive time. She can get along with many people without closing her spirit. She knows respect, AND isn’t afraid to hold a debate about global issues or social responsibility. Your mom and friends will like her.
Date a girl who travel as you enjoy your time more. She know how to pitch a tent and screw her own fins without your help, so you just prepare fire for BBQ, and prepare your fins. When you are ready, she is ready. She cooks well and you can prepare Mojito while she is cooking. She is independent and care whom she is traveling with. If she asked you to join her, which means you are selected. Not because she expect you to cover her cost or do something for her, but because she will enjoy your company and you will enjoy her company. She probably check the place in advance or have good friends there, so you don’t have to worry about much to escort her. She enjoys living in the present, you are lucky to be there too. She talks to strangers. She will meet many interesting, like-minded people from around the world who share her passion and dreams. You will not be bored with her. You may want to ask her some private „me and you“ time tomorrow, and of course she can agree your idea if you are the guy who enjoy her and her friends‘ company today.
So date a girl who travels unless what you really want is just a pretty barbie girl who do not want to travel because she wants to keep her fair skin and wears high heels, and ask you to take her to nice restaurant and give her a GUCCI bag. A girl who travels knows the value of the people, time, moment and world, and she will carefully choose what she wants in her life. If you have a chance to date with her, do it. You will enjoy it and your life is getting much more intriguing. It’s not just a matter of travel, but whole attitude toward life. Good luck!
