How do you deal with “attention whores” when dating abroad?

Brazil

Genuine question for the more introverted/homebody passport bros.

A lot of guys seem to go to places like Colombia or Brazil and end up dating very outgoing women who love going out, posting constantly on social media, dressing for attention and generally being seen.

Basically, what some guys would call an “attention whore.”

If you’re the opposite and prefer a quiet life, how does that work long term?
I’m not talking about controlling or isolating your girlfriend. She should have her own life.

I’m asking about compatibility. Do you just accept that part of her personality, set certain boundaries in the relationship, or specifically avoid dating women like that in the first place?
