​What Did I Learn on Vacation?

5/20/2018

 
Picture
It would seem that there are Some Men who cannot wrap their minds around “a beautiful woman” traveling by herself. As if only unattractive women are allowed to roam about unescorted. I had several conversations that all went something like:  
 
HIM: So you’re traveling by yourself? 
 
ME: Yes.  
 
HIM: But why? (Imagine this being said with a whine.) 
 
ME: Because I want to and I can. 
 
The Bewildered Man would then toddle off, which was better than the worse case scenario of being abducted, tortured, and murdered. I then returned to reading my book about women being abducted, tortured, and murdered.  
 
I was tempted to change up my answer and say, “Alone? Pshaw, my good Sir! I’m traveling with my imaginary friends.” But for Some Men, crazy is a turn on not a deterrent. I guess the real crazy is that this trip was intentionally for me and I did not need to be rescued from the pleasure of my own company. 

Side note: the One Woman who asked me if I was traveling alone responded with a smile, admiration, and a nod of approval.
