The Darker Side of Travel Romance

From Yahoo!News:  Writer Rolf
Potts explores the enigma of travel romance — you know the one:  the one where you’re off in an exotic location,
meet a mysterious, sexy stranger, pledge your love… and then back home, all of a sudden that,mysterious, sexy
stranger isn’t all that fabulous anymore?

I can so relate to this article — several years ago, I met a
tall, dark and handsome man while traveling with girlfriends in Barcelona.  We spent a wonderful day and evening
together, exchanged numbers, and promised to stay in touch when we had both returned to the States.

We kept
our promise.

And when we reunited, I found him childish, moody, and decidedly unsexy.  The fact was:
while he was so not my type, Barcelona made him sexy.

This article is definitely worth the
read.  How about you:  any travel romances that turned out to be, well… not-so-romantic?
