Traveling together is often the ultimate relationship test. It shows how well you handle money, spend long stretches of time side by side, manage stressful moments, and even deal with something as simple as food choices. In short, it’s a fast-track way to see how compatible you really are—and it can either bring you closer or drive you apart.
For one woman, her first vacation with her new boyfriend fell firmly into the second category. He failed to take care of himself, ended up with severe sun poisoning that made the trip miserable, and revealed other red flags that left her questioning whether he’s truly the right partner for her.
Now, she’s asking Reddit if ending things is the right choice or if she’s judging him too harshly.
