Thank you for keeping us abreast of such developments.

I am an ex RCCL crew member and met my now-wife on board 16 years back, Now we have been happily married for the last 14 years with 2 kids, the point is it all depends on the people involved, we both were very committed to each other and here is the result, When asked I always say- a cruise ship is not everyone`s cup of tea, its a lifestyle either you have it or you don't.

Dating is so different for women.. "If that doesn't work out, you're going to see someone else. If that doesn't work out, you're going to see someone else. If that doesn't work out..." Lady, you just described about nine years of my life.

Wise insight and advice, especially the part about not being able to know someone as well as you would on land vs. on a ship. There's so many aspects of life that you don't deal with on board.

Circumstance break-ups are simply the worst kind. It’s so much easier to get over someone when it ended in a shitty way. 😭

Thank you for the memories. This sounds exactly what it’s like to be in the military. Especially on remote assignments for only one year. Yes is not solely exclusive to the cruise industry.

QUESTION: it would be interesting to see you discuss this alongside of an experienced male crew member. There are certain subjects like relationships that differ between males and females and it would be cool to see you and a male crew member compare and contrast stories and perspectives.

You are quite creative and love how you tell the truth of how it really is on cruise ships. Wish I could meet you in person someday because I’m a huge fan of your channel. I always look forward to the next video…you are so much more entertaining than what is broadcasted on television now days. Thank you!

Really does kinda remind me of Uni. You see people daily, and don't really know how a relationship will continue after graduation when everyone got their own goals and dreams to persue.

I met and fell in love with a man from Montenegro on my first contract. He’s getting off tomorrow and I’m getting off in about 10 days. I’ll be spending about a month and a half in Montenegro on my break and I’m so excited and nervous to see how the relationship progresses on land.

Many many years ago (30 something) I found myself in a strange situation, I was in the US, but had to leave for 3 months while my green card was going through. I had two choice, head back to the UK or head to a ship. Thanks to my fathers position with a line I ended up being put onboard on of the ships in a made up position of Captains assistant. My job had two parts to it, make sure the Captain had a full cup of coffee when he was on the bridge and.....Find his bike when he forgot where he put it somewhere on the ship (if you worked for a certain line 30 something years ago you may well know the Captain I am talking about).... Anyways, to make life easier for everyone, instead of putting me in the crew cabins, I got to use my dads cabin, this would be more like a suite than the 4 to a cabin 4 cabins sharing a shower type set up the rest of the non officers had. Word pretty quickly got around that the 19 year old who was following the Captain around had a suite, a shower of his own and a bath tub. More importantly, he wasn't a scumbag who expected certain favors for use of those facilities. I actually took my coffee and bike duties seriously, however, the times I ended up having in that room were something I will never forget.

Oh, my God! You are amazing!❤ You told these dirty things in such a diplomatic way!😂😅😘

Just do it WITH the roommate too. Makes it a LOT more exciting.

That was to the point. Advice is, avoid casual relationships and hook ups and be with person you are really into. That makes your life much easier.

It's like being in a bubble on the cruise ship then on land the bubble bursts!

Wow your points are so valid! Especially about not knowing the true inside person and their habits.

Land relationships mostly start as hook-ups and there is very little dating. Also, the data from major dating sites and apps indicate, about 80% of the women are dating the same 20% of men, and most of their interest and activity is directed at less than 5% of men. I wonder if the same is true on ships because given the limited pool, it would be much more obvious this was happening.

Thank you for a very clear explanation of how onboard relationships work.

Girl, you're so fun and creative. Love watching your videos.❤

glad it was not clickbait...beautiful view

You are such a great storyteller!

Relationship ain't on my mind just friends, enjoyed the vid . Keep it up 💯.

I love your term situationships!

There's TWO BIG reasons I LOVE your chnnel

I guess some folks are on cruise ships because they prefer new relationships on a regular basis, new contract, new love, or what they perceive as such. They enjoy the butterflies they get of new relationships where the only guarantee is at the end of 6 mos it'll end and, by that time, they'll be ready for another. Its like having an affair with a married person, in a sense, eventually they have to go home.

I feel like my husband and I should come work on a cruise ship… yes, please to the honeymoon phase after 25 years of marriage 😂

Good point about not knowing how they deal with family.... I generally don't trust anyone who dose not get along good with their families .

I love whoever is sleeping in the background

Thanks we would like to reach at the peak of those mountains

Thanks so much for sharing about your cruise experience, So interesting to hear more about crew life!

You are quite an interesting, insightful commentator in a social setting I had not considered before I found your channel. Thanks for sharing.

Sex Sells! Which is why such information is so valuable and everyone is so curious to hear it! It was very insightful. Nice outfit too!

Wow Lucy... I would need to be watch my back... I see myself been work centric and money focused... and working my way up in the shortest period of time. Thanx again for your time! G

Watch twice had a hard time comprehending I was distracted for some reason😉 Keep up the good work👍👍👍

I am married now for 23 years on land... before we were married we spent ALL our free time together because we wanted to... for 9 months before we got married.

Smart advice! Love you mention I 95, think its great all cruise ships use that as their huge hallway, to everything crew.... I 95 , runs North and South on the Eastern coast of the US.....have been on it a Bazillion times, since it goes right thru Philadelphia. Also have been on it on many cruise ships! Vickie from SE Pa

Hey. Love is Love. It all boils down to what's more important to you. Being a 30-year sailor and away from home a lot: I've had plenty of relationships erode over time. sigh...

Omg the lying thing ! So true! Haha at one point I even pretended that I was a lesbian, just to get people off my back 😅 because as soon as certain people know .. they try to ruin things 😢

Just discovered your channel... So much wisdom... 😊

I wouldn't think that people are watching this video for the verbal content. More for for the visual content.!!!

She has a Couple of good points! I just can’t put my Finger on it!…

Im having a hard time focusing but what I understand you make some very valid points..

You are fun . I think I'd listen to you prattle on just about anything . Great personality .

Another great video. Thanks Lucy.

On one of my 90's cruises,a cabin mate hooked up with a lovely woman and-to the best of my knowledge-are still together. Sadly, despite all my cruises,I didn't have the same fortune. But,later I discovered se asia and in my 60's hook up with women the same age as on my previous cruises!

Fire Butts is one definitely in my top 3 favorite gold shades. Easily top 3!

Video Suggestion: How to keep things secret. It would help

Everyone will eventually be with everyone. Buffet on a ship is literally that. 😅

i like your videos, very informative, i ve watched alot of them, even though i m not gonna work for a cruise line,.i still find it very informative,... i also like your accent

Awesome video! Dang though, was hoping to hear some personal juicy stories! ;)

Absolutely LOVE your outfit choice Lucy😘😘😘😘

It’s different for passengers….my brother met his wife on a carnival cruise and they have been married now over 40 years and were in different states when they met on ship…4 years later they married. Ps no babies involved.

Thank you, great information from a very gorgeous lady! I'm learning alot!

i met my boyfriend on bord and i have to say i really really enjoyed our time on bord. It was a super genuine connection and i believe that helped us alot. We spent everytime we could together and up to date were still going strong (were both at home since 3months)

I was thinking about applying for a job on Virgin, and I came across 1 of your videos. You give great content. I'm definitely gonna subscribe to your channel. Thank you.

Wow. Thanks for the good time.

I must say your choice of wardrtobe is appropo. I also must say that you are an observant and wise young woman. I like your mind very much.

Are you a fan of the young singer Allie Sherlock from Cork ? She busks in Dublin and is sensational. She sang at Palladium

I don’t plan on going on a cruise but you would be a fun gal to hangout with as friend in person.

Awesome! This is what I've been looking for 😜

Okay note to self, dont be in a relationship. Period!

Thanks for showering awesome knowledge of your experience. 😊 lots of love from india

It seems like if you're going to hook up with a crew mate, wait until the last days of the contract.

This is wonderful advice special if want to be the part of cruise ship workers. I lyk to say thank u ❤

Do they have a church on cruise ship? If no then does anyone do the Sunday worship thing?

Have to schedule time for some motorboating

I think this video will be great for crew!

That's all really good advice! I bet you don't have any of these issues with relationships. 😄😄

Hi! You mentioned in an earlier video that you have a heart condition so I hope you don't mind me asking - how do people get medication on board? I take daily meds but im sure no GP would give me a 9 month supply? Do you know anyone who manages to be crew while taking daily prescibed meds?

First off i love the videos, keep up the good work. Second of all my family and I will be cruising out of Galveston Texas this coming summer. We will be taking our 8 year old son on his first cruise with us. We will be cruising on Carnival Cruise lines. Have you ever worked for Carnival or know anyone who has and what they thought of the cruise line? Got any funny stories of about kids being on a cruise ships? Just some ideas for some topics maybe. Keep the videos coming!

It's the same in the Royal Navy, but its not allowed formally. No fratinisation rule is in force. You can be together but not be together if that makes sense? I had never been on a ship with girls and then moved to one and it was like HMS Loveboat! This girl is an absolute babe by the way. Gorgeous and seems very grounded and intelligent.

Can really relate to this, particularly no.10

A pretty accurate assessment , life is a series of experiences and a few flings provide nice memories in the future .

Nice goodies🤓

One of the things you said is try your best in the initial stage just to keep it a secret but I would think that's what trillion possible on a ship as you said a small town everybody knows everybody's business you sent me you have one place that you guys eat people are going to figure it out

As always, you are a wealth of knowledge. However, I confess I was a bit distracted due to the low cut sweater 😅.

i already save this video on my favorite list

You're amazing, I love your content so much ❤️❤️❤️

I hope you find your glass slipper. Or maybe that would be better phrased as I hope the right guy finds your glass slipper.

Is Lucy frustrated. Oh my.

4:44 soooo truuuueee I live in a small town consisting majority my family (like 95% majority) and that’s like waaayyy worst then other small towns

she is amazing and provide genuine information..in love with her. hope you are good .love from India

Many years ago my wife used to visit me on board. My buddy’s wife came on board as well, He had spent some time on cruise ships. I hadn’t, his wife introduced mine to a new term in the bar when referring to another lady, to another common crew term. “A stripe f@#$er”

You mentioned Yulia, was she ever on a Carnival ship? The Legend? I know there was a Yulia from Ukraine that worked at the Alchemy Bar, and she is awesome!!

Interesting insights. Thank You.

Awesome video!

The way U R dressed says it all!

What happens when pregnancy happens?

She has a big heart😊

You are wise beyond your years ❤

Sounds like Fling Central on those cruise ships. 😄

Magnificent outfit. Keep where things like that and your subscriber numbers will sky rocket 💕👍😛

Maybe the cruise lines should consider private conjugal cabins that can be reserved for those sex dates.

Dating Heaven on a Cruise Ship..... Wow how amazing

There’s also unused secluded restrooms or areas/rooms of the ship to sneak away for a little quickie. Just sayin 😉 😉

Does make you wonder that once the crew finishes cruising are they still capable of having a 'normal' relationship and settling down on land? Wonder if anyone has done any research on this?

I was Subscribe your Channel .. Grettings from Indonesia .. I Will be there as crew also

Wowzers. You absolutely don't have to answer this. I'm probably over the line but if on virgin more of you have your own cabin is it more condusive to a hook up culture or are you more likely to be able to form meaningful relationships or does it not really make a difference compared to other cruise lines? Like I would guess that there is maybe less space for maybe officers to build relationships with a big power imbalance if more people have their own cabins?

Lovely video

Only {Like} 9 Urrms. But Like i get how ya slowly goin back too your old skool slang.
