Is it normal for couples to spend holidays apart?

[fairytale]

I've been in a good relationship for a few months and I believe everything is going well. We’ve traveled together a few times during our weeks off, but he wants to spend the summer vacation with his friends. As some of his friends are unreliable and a total chaser I am afraid that my boyfriend will cheat on me. Do you think I should be suspicious of this situation? Is it normal for couples to spend holidays separately? Please give me some comfort ☹

Not so much, no. Even the times I took a trip on my own I'd make money for a while, generally speaking if there was a holiday especially a major one like Easter or anything, I'd be back home for it even if I was back out to make money again.

It is normal and your guy should be able to go with his guy friends. If he has not given you any reason to worry about cheating in the past and you believe he is a good honest guy, then let him go.

He will not only think you are the best wife ever, he will show his appreciation when he gets back.

I often brought my wife home a little present from the trip thanking her for trusting me and agreeing to letting me to go. It said a lot about her character and how strong our relationship was.

That seems to be very strange for him to want to spend the holidays apart…. something fishy here

I wouldn't classify it as normal, it happens once in a while but surely not the norm.

Time to find a new boyfriend. This one is just enjoying the sex as long as you continue to give it up.

Summer is 2-3 months. he's going to be away that long? I understand a weekend, maybe a week. But weeks and months away? In the hot summer with babes in bikinis? Absolutely not

It just seems really odd to be this early in a relationship and to take a vacation like this away from you, especially this long. Discuss it with him, rely your concerns.

No, that sounds like a recipe for disaster.
