Holiday

Post Reply New Topic

So I was wondering if it was just me or do other people find going on holiday frustrating?

I really hate it, being taken out of my daily routine, having to do things like travel and change the way i dress the things I eat and so on, I find it really frustrating, not to mention all the things you have to remember, oh and don't get me started on sunburn, skin irritation is the worst kind of irritation I can experience, having to apply that suncream every few minutes just so I don't burn to a crisp.

It's the disruption of routine that I mind most. Plus seeing relatives and feeling the anxiety of trying to figure out what constitutes acting normal when I'm around ones I don't see as often. There's a family wedding coming up soon so it's on my mind. Weddings are worse for me because holidays are mostly closer family members while weddings have a bunch of strangers.

I don't really like it. I mean the change in routine can cause a problem but the trips can seem to get boring after a while of talking and I start to get bored.

I do if I remain at home.

That is why I do not go on vacations (or holidays, depending on where you are from).

I love going on holiday. The thought of it always makes me feel really excited.

But the only thing is, I always go with NTs, and when NTs are on holiday they always end up mixing with strangers, which I find rather stressful, and then it spoils the holiday. I can't just go off on my own and ignore them because then I feel rude and unfriendly.

Like last spring I went to Cornwall with my mum and my aunt (her sister), and it was ones of those coach holidays where you have a different excursion every day. It sounds exciting, because I love visiting different places, but I felt awkward with the other people on the coach, as though I was obliged to have to make eye contact and speak every morning. And then my mum's sister got fancied by the coach driver, but he didn't speak to me at all even though I tried to be friendly, so that made me feel rather uncomfortable. My mum's sister is quite awkward to go places with because she is very introverted (me and my mum think she might have some AS traits), but she pretends she's not shy and gets people's attention by gazing at them.

I wish I could go on holiday with some friends, but I don't have many friends close enough to do something like that with. Or I would like to go to a foreign country in a busy hotel where you don't necessarily have to make friends because there are too many people. I remember I went to Rhodes, Greece, when I was about 14, with my mum and her brother and his wife and kids, but I didn't feel so socially anxious as I do now.

I don't mind going on holidays but it depends who i am going with.

Holidays are fine, as long as I don't travel by plane. If I travel by car, train, or even ship, that's awesome, but planes, well, that's another story...

It depends. I like going with my hubby. He hates crowds too and likes going to places with less people so it works out well. I might go with a few close friends but not with my family because I always end up babysitting and cleaning.

I love the change in surroundings, and break from routine. Unfortunately, it'll be a while before we can go again. It probably depends on where you stay, and what's on the agenda.

Im going to Wales soon and looking forward to that. Its been a while since ive been there, abut four years now so im really looking forward to going back there for a break from the norm. People don't seem to have the same odd rituals as they do down south. Also the air is more carbon filtered, and so on. You can almost anywhere and always sense you're going in the right direction but even if your not, that don't matter because its like the steep hills have their own way of guiding you..
Also, im seeing relatives of mine who I can imagine will be pleased to see me.

most of my holidayys are religius, and the few that arent are spent with my siblngs and we go to see seom new place - both of them I like.

I enjoy holidays, if I don't have to endure noisy, rowdy crowds.

Depends on if I have an internet connection or not.

i like holiday, back home i usually drink alot and get into awkward scrapes (last two ended in brothels lolz) so i enjoy the time to get away from causing myself anxiety...
Also i dunno why this is at all( i dont work) i actually feel i can be myself on holiday, i feel like ive fired up an rpg and instead of loading normal, ive clicked create new character and been true to myself. i also feel sexier and better looking..
