If you started travelling and decided it was not your thing, you're probably not going to be present on a travel-themed forum afterwards, so I doubt you'll get a first-hand answer from such a person.
What about people who made a big trip, enjoyed it, but then settled down to a mundane life and never did more than short trips of a few weeks? Unless complicated by factors out of their control (e.g. health) after travelling once, it seems they decided that other things (e.g. family, career) are more important than sticking on the road.
As someone who plans to spend the rest of his life travelling in preference to all else (though I'm currently in a career to fund that), I could look at such people (almost certainly a majority), and say that in the long term, 'it wasn't their thing'. But I don't think this is the sort of person you are looking for.
Interesting topic to discuss, but I think you may be looking for a niche person who won't be here. What interests you to ask? Are you on the fence about committing to a long trip, or just raising an interesting topic?
