Work or travel???

hugs&xxx

Well i am in my final year in college and am trying to make a decision whether to work when i finish or go travelling first before starting a job. I have a bf who i am going out with for the last 3 years, who I love dearly but the problem is that he is settled in his job and has no wishes to go travelling and he would prefer for me to settle down straight after college, buy a house with him etc. I was just wondering would yous have any suggestions on what I should? If i do go travelling for at least a year, which I really would like to, I could end up losing him. I love him so much so wouldnt want that to happen. But on the other hand if I dont go travelling now when I am young, I am afraid I would settle down at a too young age and have too much responsibility by the time I am 25. Thanks for any thoughts on this.

Well the chances of you travelling after buying a house (at least for a year or so) are very slim so if you want to then go ahead and travel. You might not get the chance to for a while and might regret it. Don't let anyone make the decision for you.

Do you mean that you're worried he will leave you if you go traveling?

Talk to him about it, make it clear that you're coming back. You said that you were considering buying a house together. If he's going to break up with you just because you're going away for a few months for reasons that appear to be extremely important to you, then it might be time to seriously reflect on your relationship and consider whether or not something as huge as buying a house together is a good idea.

Perhaps there are more practical considerations here. But I would think that this really shouldn't be so much of a threat to a strong relationship.

Look for a job after college that involves travel?
