So my LTR and I are on vacation in Mexico. We’re both seasoned travelers and like to venture to more remote areas. We’re currently in Tulum (not that remote I know). We were on the beach when I cut my foot on a large rock under the water and started bleeding. I told her that we needed to go and I need to get cleaned up. She then proceeded to tell me that I’m ruining her vacation and she doesn’t want to leave. I start walking back and she starts to follow me. To be honest I wasn’t in the best mood and usually my frame is very very solid. This is my mistake, I say “why did you tell me to come over!?” In frustration. She then tell me she’s staying alone (3 miles from Airbnb by bike and we both have bikes). I walk down to the bike rack hoping she’ll change her mind. I’m worried for her safety. She doesn’t change her mind and we start a texting “battle”.

It’s my fault for choosing an irresponsible traveler. She refuses to come with me saying I’m doubting her “independence”. I relay with telling her it isn’t safe to be alone for a woman and that she’s in danger alone. She didn’t like that at all and kept telling me to leave. She tells me she’s does “research” and she’ll be ok and knows what she’s doing.

We text and call each other for about 30 mins getting absolutely nowhere. I tell her of the dangers and she becomes even more stubborn. She also doesn’t know a word of Spanish and is pale as wonder bread. I get fed up and leave the area and she assures me she’ll be back by 5 and is reading on the beach.

Did I make a mistake? Should I have gone back and lived in her frame? I ended up biking home alone after she assures me she “knows the risks” and “it’s not even dark yet” and “my friend did this last week I’ll be fine”

I’m sitting in the Airbnb very worried. The LTR is over after this vacation just based on the fact that she didn’t come back with me bc I had a bloody foot. She’s always been very subservient up to this point. Is there anything I could have done/can do?
