Museums, beaches, finding ourselves, relaxing... those are just excuses to travel. We all know the real reason we max out the credit cards for a fun-filled vacation: hooking up! Vacation hook-ups! Aren't they great? You're far, far away, no one will ever know, you probably won't ever see the person again...perfect scenario right? Well not always. Pay attention boys! 

Q: Dear Geena,
We're going to South Padre Island this year. Six of my bros and I are all set to go, got a suite lined up at one of the best hotels and everything, and these girls we met on Labor Day are going too. But I've started talking to someone and I'm starting to like her, and things are probably gonna get serious and no doubt she's gonna want to do something with me. No way am pulling out of this trip, but I don't want to mess up a good thing either. What do I do?

A: Dear Edgar,
Man, you are in a tough situation! Well, you've already planned your trip and it sounds like you are for sure going no matter what. You've already made up your decision; no matter what, you are going. If you guys are still together then, and are serious, she's probably not going to be too happy. But what can she say? You've already planned this trip out way in advance and it's "bros before hos" everyone knows that.  Hopefully though, you can be honest with her and tell her now about this trip. It might make it easier on her when the time comes. And don't get mad if she decides to go on a trip with her girls. It's kind of inevitable. Either way though, when the time comes, it's gonna be kind of tough.  Hopefully though she will have nothing to worry about right? Even if you do go? If you really like her, just be honest, and don't cheat over there. It's pretty simple buddy.  Don't cheat! Oh, and you definitely have to spoil her before and after the trip.  And call her a couple times from there to let her know you are thinking about her. Good luck!

Q: Dear Geena,
I'm from Texas and I met this girl while in Miami. We had a good time and hooked up all weekend.  It turns out she only lives 100 miles from my campus here in Austin, but she's not returning my emails or calls now. Why isn't she responding? Should I keep calling?  I thought we had a good time.
John - Austin, Texas

A: Dear John,
Sorry to tell you buddy, but she doesn't want you. You were just a weekend hook-up.  She probably never expected to live that close to you. She might even have a boyfriend.  You're actually probably making her stress a bit right now because you are so close to her (especially if she has a boyfriend). So I say just give it up, take it for what it was, a fun weekend. Oh and if you do ever run into her anywhere, and see her with her man, do her the favor and don't say hi. 

Q: Dear Geena,
I met this girl in Cabo. We hooked up a couple times. But now that I'm back at school she keeps calling me! She wants to come visit me (She goes to school in San Francisco, I go to school in L.A.)  I've answered her calls a couple times because I don't want to be rude, but I really don't want her to visit.  What should I do?
Paul - San Diego, California

A: Dear Paul,
Tell her you have a girlfriend. That always works. If not, just don't answer the phone, change your number, do whatever you need to do. It sounds like you have a stalker on your hands. Stay Away! She doesn't know where you live right?
Till next time!

Geena
