Bitch, we weren't given nothing! We fought, bled and died for our freedom!
Well, not me personally, you understand.

So I may or may not be doing something which is not entirely advisable in a moment such as this, and that is I will in fact be travelling half way across the world right after new year to see my family in Croatia and then my boyfriend in Spain, but I figure it should be ok because: a) I haven't seen my family in over a year and if I don't go now I don't know when I will be able to, b) I will be mostly travelling business class so there is less chance of infection, c) I am conscientious and will be taking all the precautions (and am avoiding to see anyone else BUT my family and boyfriend).

I don't know when this thing will finish but I'd rather not go 2 years without seeing my family or 6 months without seeing my boyfriend. :/

Fingers crossed that it all goes well...

Yes. If you miss your family that will keep the virus at bay. That’s how it works.

I get how you feel but you're not only taking a hell of a chance, you're potentially putting your bf in danger too. I mean, look at it this way (sorry for being dramatic but it's IMPORTANT!) - would you rather not see your bf for 2 years and then be reunited with him when this is all over, or see him next year and then have to visit his grave, or he visit yours?

Sorry but it's just how it is. Seriously: wise the **** up, man. Nobody gets a pass. As OH says, just because you miss him doesn't mean you're immune and the virus does not give two ****s how you feel. If you love him, stay away and keep him safe.

Malaysia has worked hard af and has under 500 deaths. I’m shocked they would even allow anyone to enter from Europe or America. If I was Malaysian and I wouldn’t be having any of that bull**** at all.

I know what you mean guys, but I do have to go through some testing before entering Croatia and Spain so the risk will be reduced significantly in both cases. My boyfriend has travelled 3 weeks ago from Malaysia and has not picked up anything on the way, his family has been living in Spain with the virus for a year now and have not picked up anything. The only idiot that picked up something is my oldest sister who visited a friend WITHOUT A MASK. Incidentally, my youngest sister who was with her at the time (but WITH a mask) also drove her home for a few hours without a mask and DIDN'T catch it. My mother and father were in (limited) contact with my eldest sister and DIDN'T catch it.

So, I get the concern, I have it too, but I honestly think it's not so easy to catch this virus if everyone is following the protocols. Travelling, especially air travel is extremely safe these days so I think the chances of me picking up something and then passing it on to my family or boyfriend are minimal. And this is why I'm ok to travel. :/

Btw, when I come back to Malaysia I am required to go through testing and an obligatory quarantine of 10 days in a hotel. They are doing this correctly...

Masks don't keep you from catching it
They keep people who have it from spreading it. I don't think you know what you're talking about and are going to do what you're going to do regardless of what anyone says and are looking for validation rather than advice. Have fun acting like an American.
