A female friend is planning a trip to Bora Bora or the Maldives next year. She half kiddingly asked if I want to go while we were texting last night. It was along the lines of "I need a travel partner. Amanda won't mind". So I looked over and asked my girl if she'd mind if I went with her. She very seriously told me that she wouldn't. I questioned it a little more and again, she told me I could go if I want to. I told her this would be a no way, no how, I wouldn't even consider it if my friend was paying all of my expenses but I was curious to see what she'd say. And I'd be extremely unhappy/pissed if she was to go on a trip with another guy.

She occasionally goes on business trips. Her business partner also goes. He flys in from a different part of the country and they stay in different rooms. For a trip like this, we'd be sharing a bed in one of those huts over the crystal clear water and of course, drinking a number of adult beverages. It's a trip made for a couple.

This post isn't necessarily about my girl and Il but wondering how other people feel about going on vacation with a member of the opposite sex while in a relationship. Some might say she totally trusts me. And maybe I'm untrusting in general. But I think there is a difference between trusting someone and putting them in a position to fail.
