Worldly Experience

There was a guy who declined to date me for the reason being that he didn't think I was 'worldly' enough. He has since married a girl from South Africa. I guess living in another country could make one 'worldly'.

What does being worldly even mean? Does it mean you have to travel to many countries, be cultural, know current events, be involved in politics? Does it mean anything or is it just a pretty way of saying nothing?

A person can have a more extensive life experience staying in one city his whole life, than someone who has traveled the whole globe. Experience comes from what you know, how you perceive the world, how you think, how you act upon what you know.

People have book smarts and people have street smarts and people have no smarts at all.

What makes one a worldly person?
