roryb Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 I've been on several dates with a great girl and can really see things developing. However, she's going travelling for around 6 months from January. I'm starting to really like her, but with the travelling, it's obviously not sensible to get too invested in her. What would you guys advise? Is it better to let things peter out across the next few weeks. I'd still like us to be friends regardless of how things play out.
casey.lives Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 leave her alone. some people are just passing through.. don't hog tie them.. let life lead the current.

Its only 6 months and not a "life sentence" lol. I mean you can still stay in touch by email or text depending where she is travelling to. It doesnt mean things have to stop there. I was in contact with a girl who was away 3000km in a different country until she came back. So I wouldnt say its not going togo anywhere. Just continue where you left when she gets back. It can happen but its up to you what you do and how you handle this.
Sarabi Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 My question is probably not helpful to you at all... but have you considered joining her at some point along her journey? Just for a short holiday (on your part) but it will be an opportunity to reconnect with her as well...?

I'd still like us to be friends regardless -- This is what people tell themselves when they really want another person they know they can't have and keep hope in their hearts that someday . . . Move on. Find someone who is actually going to be available . . . 1
truth_seeker Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 leave her alone. some people are just passing through.. don't hog tie them.. let life lead the current. I have to agree with this. She seems like someone who doesn't want to tied down at all. Not now or in the future. 1
okc85 Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 If you are okay with a casual relationship that has no future, then keep seeing her. Unless you can visit her here 'n there during her travels, there's no point in having an LDR where you literally can't see each other at all for 6 straight months, haha. That is a recipe for disaster, unless you're already in a commited, long term relationship (even then it'd be very hard)

She sounds like one of those women for whom a relationship is not a priority at all. Fair enough, but I would forget about her altogether if I were you. Pursuing any sort of relationship with her will be an epic waste of your time. 1
