Keep on travelling and enjoying yourself missy! I believe there are plenty of soulmates out there. It’s just about when you meet them that is the deciding factor I think. If you’re both open to something, then the magic will happen :)

I know so many people who finds it sad that I am still single at 26. I am just enjoying myself and travel as much as I can. I am in no hurry to find a boyfriend, it could be nice, but it will come one day (I hope ;) ). I know the feeling of multiple soulmates. Five years ago I met a guy who swept me off my feet like never before and I quickly fell in love (I have a really hard time falling in love), but it didn’t work out. We were too far from each other in our lives.

Every once in a while I can’t help of thinking that maybe he was it and that I will never find anyone like that again. But I know it is just in my head and it is from the pressure from others that I have to find one soon and I soon realise that I am just crazy for thinking that :) and for now I will just enjoy the small romances ;)

I’ve been a solo traveler for a long time, and lived a few romantic, movie-like short experiences with different guys in different places.

The shortness of it only makes it better when it’s just a fling: for me at least, I found that when you give it your all through those 2, 5 or 10 days (if you’re lucky sometimes a few weeks!) and never lose sight of the fleetingness of it; then you can live it fully without guilt. And even the pain of missing them is sweet afterwards (bittersweet maybe, but I do love to romanticize it by listening to loads of Damien Rice).

Then, at some point, you might meet someone you feel like you can’t let go of, and if they can’t let you go either and you’re lucky, then you’re up for an adventure buddy. Having an awesome like minded travel mate has been just as great as solo traveling for me (and that’s saying a lot).

Enjoy those beautiful short romances! They’re pure real-life poetry and make awesome blog posts (what wouldn’t I give to go back to the past and have a blog for my solo travels too).

great writing btw!

Adri

Crystal, you can do what I’ve been doing the past 2 years. I’ve been dating myself and I’m finding that I’m one damn awesome person! I hope you’ve fallen in love with yourself all over again and maybe you’ll find someone as awesome as yourself. For the time being… fuck it… keep moving through the world!

Cheers!

You’ve hit the nail on the head. You need to love yourself first before you can love another. Breaking up with someone is so difficult but to have that happen whilst your travelling; that REALLY is a challenge. I’m happy to hear you’re doing good and found awesomeness at the other end. Keep rocking it Crystal! <3

I left to start my travels two years ago and I was supposed to go with the love of my life. Or so I thought. He broke up with me a month in and since then I’d been wandering the Earth in many different places, wondering if I’d end up old and lonely. It has been from going to an array of meditation retreats, extensive travelling, meditation and yoga, a couple of horrible relationships and a lot of self-reflection that I’m beginning to feel fine about being single. It’s hard to realise but it’s only after loving yourself can you let someone else in to love you as well <3

I hate to sound unromatic but I agree with Michaela, we will cross paths with several potential Prince/Princess Charmings in our lifetime. If you’re ready to accept him into your life, your eyes and heart will be open for him. He has passed you by, and you have passed him by. You just weren’t quite ready for that chapter yet.
