I love to travel. I have always traveled as much as possible. Since TB and I have been together, I have not traveled as much as I'd have liked. I can't blame that on him though. It's more like the grown up responsibilities of life have made me prioritize bills over vacations. With all the crap going on now, though, I'm thinking of taking a little solo vacation. I used to go to Italy a lot but haven't been there since 2003 and am thinking about spending Thanksgiving break in Rome. I found a package of air and hotel for $830, but am wondering If I may be better off keeping it closer to home for such a short time.
I really just want to get away and clear my head. I want to be able to think everything through without the distractions of life. Going home everyday and playing happy house really takes a lot out of me. On one hand I feel so hurt. I want so badly for this to work out. On the other, I'm just so angry. I feel like I've been played and I am wondering if it's worth it to stay. Will I always be bitter that he didn't have the same level of commitment as I did? Because truthfully, doesn't every girl deserve to be loved as much as she loves?
Okay bla bla bla. Back to the trip.... Rome is the only place on my list that I have been before. Also on the list: Chicago, San Diego, L.A., Portland, Denver, Barcelona, Paris. I have also been throwing around the idea of just going to some random city in the US. You know, one of those places you always wonder about but would never actually go. Like somewhere in North Dakota.
Have any of you ever done this before? Do you guys have any suggestions?

Do it! It would gie you something to look forward to, and if you don't mind long flights it would be so worth it just to get your mind off things for little while. Also, since you are just going for a short time I would say you should go somewhere you have been before and would be comfortable going again. You don't want to end up somewhere that you don't like OR go somewhere where you can't fit in all the things you want to do. You know?
I love solo vacations, they are the best things I have ever done for myself. I'd be so jealous, but you deserve it right now!
(I've never been to Italy, but I LOVE LOVE LOVE greece. If you don't mind a long ass flight and just want to relax go to one of the greek islands)
On second thought, the word verification I just got is Pedros, maybe you should be going to Spain?
I would do it! WHy not. You have nothing to lose and you can have a fab vacay:)
I have never traveled by myself. The closest I was traveling solo was when I went to Amsterdam with a group of friends and they pissed me off half way through so I went out by myself and toured solo. It was such a good feeling.
Do it girlie!
I did San Francisco by myself and IT WAS FAN-FRIGGIN-TASTIC!!! highly recommended ;)
I hope this gets better or you get some clarity...
I'm trying to talk penny in to a girls weekend down here ;)
I've gone away randomly before, and I must say it didn't really help. Sure, for a few days it's rather nice but you come back not having solved anything, and wondering why you left to begin with. You say you wish to work it out with TB, but wouldn't going away further alienate you two? Sure, everyone deserves to get away by herself from time to time, but right now it doesn't seem like it would benefit you at all. Seems like a decision you both have to make together, without having one waver and the other going along with it as though doubts considering the relationship is ok and then further proceeding to get away alone. Bad idea it seems.
Stout. 5:30ish?
