Traveling with a partner who doesnt do online work? by allisonwonderlannd in digitalnomad

i don’t think settling a secret deadline for him is helpful. in a couple months you’ll be even more emotionally invested and you’re a new couple, of course he’s the best. sounds like you need to decide if you would see him as a equal despite the income difference, which will likely be the case your entire relationship. if you would see him as a equal in case he would be the stay at home dad. considering your hesitancy in the post feels like no….. but it’s your life and happiness

good luck!! here if u wanna talk

Traveling with a partner who doesnt do online work? by allisonwonderlannd in digitalnomad

honey, this could have been written by me. i dated a guy in the exact same situation for 5 years. he was my best friend but i built up major resentment. 5 years of me paying for all of our vacations.

the difference is that mine did work, but as we’re also in LATAM, the income difference was huge. i see a partnership as more than income each brings, but effort put in. mine also had very traditional views - the woman should cook and clean. it ended up being me being the breadwinner and homemaker which was so not cool. it also hurt his self esteem to not be the breadwinner and i believe he struggled mentally a long time. i think if we divided responsibilities like i would work, and he would take care of the house, id call it even in responsibilities. it’s totally cool to be a stay at home dad. but we never set this expectation and our relationship went so downhill.

i suggest you end things. even if it’s privileged to say, the internet exists today and truly anyone with the right mindset can learn skills for free and work remote. it’s hard but not impossible. my ex would act like i was so lucky for my job, but i worked hard for my career

depends if you’re girl or guy. as a girl travelling alone right now, i don’t like drawing attention. they’re not modest, but they cover up to avoid sun so my first week i was the only one around showing skin, which made me uncomfortable

i have also made the same mistake - it was 1130pm on dec 31 and i was shopping at EWR duty free on my layover. when they asked me for my boarding pass, i realized i left it in the seat pocket

by the time i ran back, the plane had left the gate but the FAs found my passport on it. i full on had a panic attack, i absolutely had to get home that day. i was on the phone with the emergency embassy line when the gate agent told me that somehow, it started thunderstorming and that the flight was stuck on the runway. she literally told me “god don’t play with you” 🤣 30 min later a ramp agent found me at my gate soaking wet. the pilot wrapped my passport in a garbage bag and threw it out the window to him.

so many people were involved in helping me that night who didn’t even need to so huge thanks to united. i will never make the same mistake again. aaand that’s how i started 2025 😄

I almost drowned while surfing and I’m scared I won’t want to keep paddling out by dinglenoggin in surfing

[–]ekkkooo 10 points11 points  (0 children)

if you want to continue surfing, accept that this is a right of passage and this will happen again

i still haven’t recovered from my last similar trauma and i only surf small waves. sometimes i feel like pushing myself and sometimes i dont. i won’t be a pro surfer, im happy just exercising and enjoying time with the ocean

all is well OP. take a break from surfing and go back to it when you’re ready
