I feel like this is a story of a "foreign fling" in a sense. She meets a man in another country and they have this connection, but there isn't enough there and it's not a happy relationship - you were no picnic, etc - but for a while, they have enough to stay together. Eventually, they fall apart because there's not enough to draw them together. I also think that the world of this man isn't like hers and she doesn't like it, which is also a point of contention.
