Search Results: packing for a trip

It's supposed to be for a few days.

Prior to this we'd communicate quite routinely throughout the day with kisses and talks about life together, etc., etc. But no sooner did he tell me this - sudden random piece of information (you'd think he'd know well in advance - work trips aren't randomly decided on) - then he more or less stops communicating.

Hasn't even read the text I sent him around 10am. It's almost 6pm here. And let me remind you we routinely texted - like every few hours - throughout the day for weeks previously.

I understand busy, packing, etc. but you'd think he could at least send one text. Or at least read the last text I sent - yes can see if read both iphones.

It's almost like the weeks & weeks previous don't exist and he couldn't careless. Which makes me wonder if it is indeed a work trip or if he's taken off with some cheap screw.

I recently got these things cause some of y'all on my other question said I was being too extreme packing on my road trip so I decided to invest in other self defense weapons to stay safe. But now I'm wondering if these are actually any better?

When traveling somewhere new, do you bring a weapon for protection?

And yes I understand in some places knuckles and stun guns are illegal. I'm speaking in general are self defense weapons helpful for protecting women?
