Is a girl who travels a lot, a red flag?

Question

Unless they're genuinely adventurous and you love travelling just the same and you both have similar aims to give your future children a variant view of life and enjoy life as going from place to place, Yes.

Wanting to travel is a desire that can get in the way of family life, because while travelling can be good experience for the kids, it could be bad for them to constantly move around too. It can depend, if she's doesn't have her head in the game about having kids, and keeping the family together and including her husband and/or is focused on just going to new places (Probably meeting new guys too to "keep it fresh" if single), that might be spell out the future of your relationship, because she might just travel away from you in a divorce after failing to settle down in a marriage after desiring to travel around secretly even when agreeing to try staying in one place to settle down and opting for occasional vacations instead. Some girls do love to travel, there's no doubt about that, and that goes for men too.

But I suppose that would only be a problem if she wasn't prepared nor desiring to be a stable, loving mother, and if you weren't a traveler, making the relationship incompatible in the first place. But some girls make the mistake of pretending to enjoy things for the sake of saving the opportunity to have a family with someone whom is stable and loving.

Travelers should travel together, and want the same things, so compatibility and similar values and goals would be extremely important in this situation. Wanting to obsessively desire to travel would be an issue only for someone who wants to stay local and in mostly one place, opting for the occasional vacation as opposed to constantly travelling around.

All the more reason to be honest and upfront about what we want from relationships.

Yes its a huge red flag. 1. Too many women use it as a chance to sleep around without getting a reputation. Men who live in vacation spots will know personally that many women do girls trips or travel solo for casual sex or cheating. Sorry but they ruined it for the girls who dont do this.

2. Serious Relationship is for settling down not traveling around constantly. Just doesn't seem like a good fit in many peoples minds.

How'd you find the top photo... by googling "prostitute festivals"? These women think they look intelligent & "powerful" when, reality is, they look stupid & desperate/cheap.

Modern-day feminists. Such a pathetic lousy joke. And I say that coming from four generations of feminists in the traditional sense of the word. I dress in professional blouses & skirts for example, not like a streetwalker desperate for cash. My great-grandmother went from dirt poor Irish to self-schooled incredibly wise-investor landlord property owner alone, never remarrying after her first husband died in WWI.

Sorry for the rant. But I just look at women like those in the photo as a disgrace.

As for your question. It depends on their career. I am currently the manager of one store to a large multi state crossing company. I am expected to travel. To sales events, business gatherings to represent the company, to company events, to seminars, etc. If I don't, I might as well quit.

Well, I'm single and I travel a lot as I want to see the world and experience different cultures, see all the famous museums, beautiful buildings and nature.
It only happened once that I ended up sleeping with a guy in Norway. He was a couchsurf host, and he gave me the full experience of his country :D I was also single at that time.
I am actually happy if someone finds a lot of travel a red flag as it means we wouldn't be right for each other for many reasons.

ChrisMaster69 · Answer

No it’s not, also confused to fuck what the images have to do with travelling.

example of a woman who travels a lot - A Sister doing missionary work,
a journalist, reporter,
an airline pilot,
a ships captain or other deck officer,
girls in the military,
Doctors Without Borders.

we had some of our American Exec here last week, 2 are women.

Basically No, anyone that travels a lot is not a red flag,

if anything, someone who has avoided travelling is a Red Flag.

OpenClose · Answer

Oh god no.

I want to travel a lot, it's just been hard to justify travelling on my own. I've been looking for a travel partner for ages.

I'm honestly not sure how those pictures relate to the question. The girls on top set off a lot of red flags. The ones on the bottom, much less so. Since all I can tell from them is that they want to change slurs against women. I don't necessarily know how they feel about men or slurs against us as well, so I can't really judge. I like an outspoken girl, so long as she's consistent in her views.

usernamr · Answer

Personaly for me it not really a red flag I'm the adventures type. I like going abroad and seeing endless new things such as the scenery, the culture, the people etc. I don't really see why you would say its a red flag really unless it's because there very independent. Or you mean by "travel" They do what some people do where they make it some sort of competition to sleep with foreign people. Then I would see it more of a red flag as they aren't really mature in my stance but that's from my perspective if a person saw it a red flag me travelling abroad then I would like them to communicate it with me because then I would personally know they aren't right for me.

How could I spend time with someone if they are never home. So it's for sure a problem to me with anyone I want to be with who I can wake up next to in the morning.
So yes a lot of travel would be a turn off to me, I want to be at home with them not her on trips 24/7.

KostasKouvalis · Answer

No, it's a good flag. I love a woman who's interested in travel. But at the same time, if she's doing it too often it does make me wonder how she is getting the money. And I don't wanna travel too frequently either, or splurge or budget all the time. Her travel style has to match mine

GreyestClouds · Answer

No.

I see people in here seeking domesticated pets who don't have a personal life outside of family due to no independence. Sorry to burst their bubbles. But some girls have jobs that require travelling. Some girls are investigative journalists who travel to dangerous places for getting information that cut-throat politicians censor from mainstream media. Those investigative journalist girls are too smart to waste their time on petty guys who only view women as domestic caregivers.

Fuentes · Answer

Should would be for me, either she is married to some military guy whose never home so she fake flaunts a life of single and traveling (which i seen a lot) or she is constantly being flown out by other men or on the rare case she has an actual job that requires her to travel, whether or not a business women or Gov employee or military or she's just some peace project person on peace missions or some sort of missionary.

Metelda · Answer

if her works need her to travel she has to and u can't control her. but if she is traveling just for fun and without you or maybd not updating you then yes its a red flag.

MuddyMole · Answer

I suppose it depends if you like travelling. I wouldn't date anyone who *doesn't* travel a lot.
Although looking at the pictures, I'm wondering if you think "travels a lot" means the same as "gets around a lot" (it doesn't).

JustinTheGreat · Answer

Y’all are just sad that you can’t bag any women so you make up dumb excuses not to date them lol  “she travels? she's FOR THR STREETS” like what. She probably don’t want you anyways

Smoke-n-Growls · Answer

She sounds too independent for you, bruh. You shouldn't chase someone outta your league.

sheikalana · Answer

I travel a lot for work. Every week I go to a different country. If I was a red flag I wouldn't be married.

Curmudgeon · Answer

Traveling (getting new experiences and seeing sights) is NOT bad politics. Your pictures depict bad politics.

Barry88 · Answer

No, I like to travel, so we would have a common interest. Nothing wrong with it and I don't see why it would be a red flag.

alice55 · Answer

Why would it be bad? Isn't traveling seen as a good things? And being sheltered a bad one?

genericname85 · Answer

for me, it is. cause to me that means she's not a stable long term partner but more of a volatile person that wants to be in other places a lot.

Wise4myage · Answer

Not necessarily, it all depends on what she is doing when she travels.

WhiteBoyChill · Answer

I would be concerned if we were married and a woman instead on travelling without me. I’d wonder why we couldn’t do it together

msc545 · Answer

Women cheat a lot, and it's easier for them to cheat when they travel - and they usually do.

Luckycharms12 · Answer

No travels for work most likely sounds like great time. But it's pain in the ass

Shiningtempest · Answer

To be honest, I see a woman who travels a lot as a sign of an incompatible lifestyle.

Marianna546 · Answer

Reaper1985 · Answer
