well guys... im sitting here at home watching tv and I see this commercial about going to australia... I have always wanted to go... I got the money, I got the equipment.

here is what I want to do: get a flight there and wing it. stay for 6 months. use a workers visa. enjoy my life to it fullest

the problem: my girl.. she doesnt want to walk around, she doesnt want to sleep in a tent becasue of the bigger bugs. mainly stupid reasons...
also I should add, she is really pushing for settling down and having a family. and not travel and enjoy life while we are young
I might add we are only 21...
so here is my question to you guys. waht would you do in my situation. jsut stay home, continue working, get married and so on and miss out on this life experiance

or

do I give her an ultimatum about going. she either comes or i leave her here and I go, risking losing her. this is something I want to do and I dont want to miss out on this.

what would you guys do?

 

Make her go

 

If you settle down at 21, get married at 22, you'll be divorced at 24 and only have half your stuff.

 

Well i'm 23 and married, so thats the route i decided on lol

 

dude ur only get older......im 19 and never had a really serious relationship although thats prob about to change but in any event u can do it now.........ur gonna let another person inhibit on ur happiness?

 

Im 25, still single, and loving it

 

LOL.

Sad, but likely true........

 

Go if she don't like it that leave her home

 

go find a girl down under !!!!

 

yeah, see if she'll let you hop in her pouch.

 

ill go i have alway want to go to

 

You're only 21 Matt? What? I thought you were older then me? Damnit now i feel stupid.

Anyway, this is the "experiance of a lifetime", for yourself, but if she truly is for you, you will wait, and maybe comprimise on this plan for the future... read: extended honeymoon!

 

i wouldnt toss the relationship away(unless you arent happy with the relationship). Im sure u can work something out to both be happy. I just got married (22) and we are traveling lots together now

 

tough one matt. see what u can do to work it out with her. if she is afraid of things, find ways to fix the problem. there is always a solution. its not like she doesnt want to go. more likely she is afraid of being in a foreign place where anything can go wrong. wemon want to feel secure about things. and knowing us guys, we like to jump on our plans, not worry about it and wing it......wemon want a foundation. sounds like she may be your better half

shame on u guys that say to break it off if somethings dont go right. relationships arnt a dream, its ******* reality,lol.

 

Whats a wemon? Some new Pokemon or something? women...
just playing...

 

i would try and talk her into going. If her only objection is big bugs, it sounds like she doesn't really understant your motivation for going.

just my .02.

 

your 21, i would go. besides Australian girls love Canadian accents. Tell her that and she'll go

 

It's your life man live it the way you want

 

you wont be able to race your car down there!

 

if you really wanna go, go now, if she dosn;t wanna go now she will want to go even less in the future. it'll get much harder to find the time to do it again, if you get married first she's gonna wanna live somewhere and likely that place won't pay for itself while you're galavanting around in the outback, the more of a nest she builds the less she will want to leave it, especially for long distances and durations. if she can't or won;t go and won;t wait 6 months for you to get back you likely don;t wanna marry her anyways. and if you're real set on marryin her, start whippin out some nice scenic pics from australia and hiint they'd be real romantic places to propose... maybe you can trick her into having a great time.

 

lmao. thanks for the spell check..........old school pokemon
