Ignore him. He’s a moron.
If the girl in question has an Instagram model-esque Instagram account then he's not wrong. Most of the females that look like they're always out and about living the best lives ever are effing someone. That's not to say the person op was trying to date is like that tho. But to me it sounds like she was looking for someone to mooch off of.
People who don’t travel are typically boring, uninspired and ignorant.

At home you have to deal with life. That requires strength of character.
WTF is with all of these morally self-righteous people that feel the need to shīt on everything that someone else says they enjoy.
If someone does something other than work at their office job, someone on letsrun is ready to peg them with some sort of emotional issue or accuse them of having an addiction.

Traveling has nothing to do with taking and posting pics. Prior to covid I traveled overseas 5 or 6 times a year and seldom took pictures.

It's entertainment, just like reading a fiction book or watching the latest Spiderman movie. And believe me, flying a Cessna over Monument Valley is way more fun than binging Netflix all day.
female perspective here. ive noticed that most dudes have pictures of them skiing/traveling/on a boat on their dating profiles. i've always figured it was a way for men to signal that they are wealthy.
likewise it makes me wonder if she might be subtly asking if you can *afford* to travel (ie gold digging). travel is a subtle indicator of class status. rich people travel. poor people travel less.
or maybe she just likes traveling and is looking for a traveling buddy.
Its funny because you missed that people are also being sh!t on for not liking to travel.

Never heard from her again.
Yeah, so you're not a match for someone who likes to travel. Kind of a big thing. Go find someone who doesn't want to travel. Most of them are very fat, so good luck there.

What a load. You could then say that about anything a person is into.
Bowling provides a temporary escape from reality.
Video games provide a temporary escape from reality.
Sex provides a temporary escape from reality.
Watching football provides a temporary escape from reality.
Clog dancing provides a temporary escape from reality.
FUN is a departure from our normal lives. That is not indicative of emotional problems. You have an opinion that is wackadoodle, brother.

LOL at someone with Bukowski’s screen name pretending they know anything about emotional stability.

Depends on the type of traveller you are. On a typical trip, I take around a thousand pictures or so. Maybe only 2-3 of them would have me or another person in it, the other 997-998 or so would be pictures of the landscape or scenery.
Taking a selfie of you next to the Mona Lisa or in Times Square is lame. Camping at the top of a 13,000+ foot summit and taking a picture of the sunrise from there is priceless.

What's priceless is just being there, not the act of taking a picture.
People are allowed to have their own preferences when selecting a person to date. If traveling is my idea of the perfect way to spend a week off, why would I want to date someone who either wouldn't go with me or would go but wouldn't enjoy it? And anyway, if you don't enjoy traveling, why would you want to date someone who does want to travel regularly?
You aren't compatible with this person in an area that she considers to be important. It's completely reasonable for her to consider that to be a deal killer. Go date someone you're compatible with instead.
There are reports of IG models going to Arab countries as prostitutes for all kinds of stuff including eating human waste. Many of them have exposed.

That's usually what I assume when girls post their Instagram travel pics.

OP not all girls are like that.
Traveling is the biggest roastie cope of all time. It’s their best attempt at having a personality, most women don't even care about traveling, they just want some stupid pics in different locations.
lol no. nowadays traveling is not just some innocent fun, it's been turned into a cultish obsession (stoked by the industry of course) that the victims indulge in for *insert psychiatric explanation*. plenty of smug tattooed (but surely not boring 🙂) victims in this thread already triggered and frothing.

Neither of you is very bright. In fact you are both quite stupid.
also it's been reported that the paler the girl is the more desirable her chubby self will be in spite of the bloat the further south she goes. unlike in pale countries, where they're regularly rejected. and if you're good looking the benefit is that you're hoeing with strangers that you'll surely not meet again by accident
