It been a few good months since you and your mate met on an internet dating site and you finally feel like the time has come for you to take your first trip together. You have traveled with your family and you have traveled with your friends.
You figure that since all went well travelling with friends and family that going on a trip with your new boy/girlfriend should be a no brainer. And for the most part it's lots of fun. But we all travel differently, so there are a few things to consider before you go on a trip with your partner.
You need to talk about where you'll travel to. Some of us (myself included) want nothing more than a beach and a comfortable beach chair beside the ocean. Others want to take in the sun on the ski hill. Whatever your preference, make sure you and your sweetie agree on your destination. Compromise may be the order of the day.
When are you going to take your trip? Next week, next month or next season? You may each have different ideas about when the best time to take a trip is.
Third, you have to decide how much time to take. This is significant because both people may not have the same amount of time off. For example: Have either of you just started a new job recently? As we know, in most cases we have to be on a new job for at least 6 months before taking a vacation.
Once you have these details ironed out you need to compare vacation styles. Some want nothing more than to relax while on vacation. After all, they reason, that's what a vacation is for; relaxing. Others want to hit every single site and tourist attraction within a hundred mile radius.
This total contrast in vacation styles can clash and make for a frustrating trip. It may important to compromise to make sure that each individual can get some of the things they are important to them. It is not necessary to spend every second with a specific mission in mind, nor is it productive to spend all your time relaxing.
Take turns doing the things you each enjoy; you'll find your trip mutually satisfying. Your first trip together is supposed to be a fun time of getting to learn more about each other. The best way to do that is to get the issues out of the way before you board the plane.
