Yes Ive had a holiday romance. I met a guy on line some years ago and we became on line friends. He lives in UK & I'm here in Aus. We had the opportunity when I was in the UK 2 years ago to meet and we headed to Paris for a break. Being that we knew a fair amount about each other from our chats, it was an imidiately comfortable situation. This gave us the opportunity to really enjoy each other. We walked, seen the sites, sat at litte cafes drinking coffee watching the world go buy, late night sipping wine at restaurants, cuddling at the top of the eiffel tower with the lights of Paris below us. We didnt fall in love but got to know each other to a deeper level. He helped turn a wonderful holiday into a fantastic holiday. Two years later we still chat about once a week and he remains a dear friend

Holiday romance....well this is my story...

Last year... i decided to follow my crush.. all the way to europe and spend 2 weeks with him. He is someone i was .. 'casually seeing' as some call it. He was a bartender .... so many people have warned me about how he isn't the one for me.. but i was soo smitten beyond belief.. i decided to just go for it.. Once in a lifetime chance.. and its Paris!

Before i could meet up with my crush.. i had a week and a half on my own, so decided to catch up with some friends i had met online... this one guy, who i thought was pretty hot.. asked if he could see me for more than just a night out for drinks. I said sure... if your willing to travel around with me before i meet my guy. He agreed.. and we setted out plans to get drunk at oktoberfest, check out barcelona, hang out in london and the sound of music tour in salzburg!

We ended up hooking up by the 4th night, it was unbearable the chemistry and the need of how much i wanted him,... and vice versa.

But i didn't go to europe for him... went on to paris.. to only have the other guy in my head.. he told me he loved me when i left europe and headed back home to australia.

2 months later.... he comes over to live with me... 4 months later... we get engaged.....
and now.... he is back in england... and i'm here...

a CRAZY holiday romance..... but in the end... we didn't really know each other.. and was caught up on the memory of how we WERE in that week..

Oh Feelgood.. sad you missed the chance, who knows she's one of a kind girl...you should give her your email addy then...
I grew-up in the tropical island, it was beautiful untouched beaches, palms trees, white sand, tropical jasmine flowers and wild-life, seafood's, but I see no potentials hunks, nor I'm not really attractive same ethnic background, so I'm not really looking back then, until my alas card came unexpectedly, less you expect they're just came along unknowing, I got this kind of travel bugs attitude, the "one" were both the same page in many levels and aspects unfortunately he was tied-up most of time in sales marketing software, being a corporate Regional Manager In Australia and New Zealand unable to travelled with me, so the chances to fed my craving in travelling I had to have to do a solo flight while I still single. Anyway he is lovely person put his trust on me and definitely I am loyal and faithful of my vows. Once awhile we travelled together but only certain time to go for. He is mostly out of town, but never neglected our time to spent together during weekends, he flew back to Sydney or I will fly over there. So there it is ..to keep the burning fire in flames...

Well mohegansun.., I can totally understand your dates distraction whilst driving....!!

Anyway, In a tropical island surrounded by crystal clear water, beautiful white sand sun setting and turtles steadily making their way up the beach, I caught eye of a verry atractive brunette making her way down to see the turtles. Moments later i was staring into the eyes of a holiday romance! We talked for some time, however it was my last day on that island:(

Three days later i actually bumped into the same girl on a surrounding near by island! I could not beleive me eyes. I took her for a romantic dinner over looking the ocean. However it was my last day in that island too.. This time i grasped the moment and we exchanged passionate kissing..
It was short lived as i had a plane to catch that night. But i often wonder what may had eventuated?
So for me, romance whilst on holidays deffantly adds that excitment and spark !

Ok holiday romance?, if you could excuse me I would like to change to dating romance !

As traditional courtship, the "one" will picked me up in my place instead driving my car in such a meeting place. We spent time together every weekends by Saturday midday we're about heading in different places. We decided to have lunch in Sydney Hyatt Hotel the rocks waterfront. And Dinner at Sydney Casino Fine dining Res.
We both loved to experienced different unusual cuisine, like those rabbits, frieggirth bird, crocodile meat, kangaroo meat, or French delicatessen, frog meat, snail, turtle meat. etc.
He drove his BMW car but didn't used the JPS. Which we used to drive along Sydney motor way to avoid traffic jams, while travelling in the same car, played a softly love song and talking sweetly...I'm wearing a little mini sexy dress sitting crossed legs facing next to him... whilst my right-hand leaning to his shoulder-blade cherishing his light-brown hair,...he so affectionate as well, he loves cherishing touche my legs, whilst his right hand on steering wheels.....It was wonderful feelings the love is all around with us,... believed it or not, we lose our concentration we forgot to exit Sydney motor way...there, we end up travelling to Canberra Hume motor way. Its a long way to find our exit back to Sydney motor way. We both laugh at loud. but it's a beautiful sightseeing to experienced by the way.

Well this post is a bit of a let down (frowns) I was looking forward to reading about a romance or two which may have transpired whilst on holilday, from some RSVP members. Hmmm, maybe someone will add a post to this topic soon. Hope so! Lol

Must be time I had a holiday, (smiles)

Oh..well it has not happened to me as yet but I can by all means dream can't I?

For a start I should imagine while on holiday your whole being would be relatively relaxed and carefree so perhaps in the right kind of mood for love to come and knock on the door lol. Will be interesting to read of others who have experienced a romance in this situation.

There was the time when not even 17, on the ship bringing me to Australia from England (a ten pound pom lol) a dashing American doctor (of 32) pursued me recklessly filling my head with romantic nonsense but in the end, he scared me and I made sure I stayed out of his way! Then there was this cute italian crew member who just went out of his way to make eyes at me, hahaha but that's another story!

Well, it did take 4 weeks and 3 days to get to Australia from England back then so it was definitely a wonderful long holiday for me.
