Some synchronistic events at the end of the year
December 30th seemed to have a theme. As part of my commitment to publish a story every day in December, I wrote one about traveling with my brother yesterday. I put a link in it to another story I had done about traveling.
I was named Top Writer by Medium in the Travel tag last week. The story about going on vacations with my brother was part of an effort to maintain that status. Yesterday’s story was selected by curators at Medium for distribution in the travel topic.
Right after I published “Traveling With My Brother Is Fun”, I looked at the OKCupid app on my phone. There was a message from a man I’d met a few years ago that said:
Hi Victoria. You’re very attractive. I’m not monogomous. I’d love to meet you. Maybe we could plan some travel together?
I thought this message was a bit unusual for a first contact. I think the guy forgot we had met once about 4 years ago. At the time, his dance card was full with a wife at home and a girlfriend overseas. He and his wife are ethically non-monogomous.
I published a story about “My Fake Tinder Profile That Says What I’m Actually Looking For” two years ago where I said I was looking for a travel companion because I wanted to travel with a romantic partner instead of my brother…
