I felt he was exhausted most of the time and our meals together were often a mixture of small to medium talk and phone time.

Even when I tried to steer things deeper, I don't feel he made any real effort to make conversation or create romance when there was an opportunity for it.

For example, sunset dinners, waking up to see the sunrise, stargazing, etc.

Nothing went wrong per se.

There were no fights or tension.

He was affectionate and we had sex almost every day.

It just was not the explosively romantic and emotionally bonding trip I had hoped for.

I found myself analyzing every moment, anxious the whole time about how the trip was going.

Again, it was a very active and tiring trip.

Not a lot of downtime.

I still love him.

If I had this exact same trip two years into a relationship with someone, it would have been great.

I just expected more passion given how new this is.

So I am left wondering, were my expectations simply too high?

Am I being too sensitive?

Or is a perfectly average first trip this early on a sign that things aren't headed in the right direction?

Jared, what would you think about a trip like this seven months into a relationship?

Jordana, would you have had similarly high expectations or did I put too much pressure on things?

Thank you for everything.

Don't roast me too hard.
