LOVE going solo. I have a lot of friends and can go to see them whenever I want without having to think about someone else.

"Never Sit With Your Back to The Door!
When traveling with me, myself and I. I really got to know that lady and I lover her more. It's a great feeling knowing you can move at your own pace without depending on anyone. Along the way I have met people but only a selected few became friends. Most men think because you are alone you are lonely and try to use you.
I'm just curious......of those of you who are traveling solo.......are any of you married?
My wife and I of 29+ years leave in 7 days for our 10th trip. I couldn't imagine going anywhere on vacation without her. But I especially couldn't/wouldn't want to go to Negril without her.
Been unmarried for some time gregandkell63 & in no hurry to reup. She was there a couple times while married...before & after that I would bring the girl I was seeing there at that time.
I made my first trip without my wife last January. We have been 13 times together over the last 7 years, but she travels more than I do. She goes to conferences a few times a year (in the middle of a trip to Las Vegas now), along with a girls trip to NYC or somewhere else domestic.
So toward the end of last year I half kiddingly told her that I should get to go to Negril in Jan, the week before her girls trip to NYC, and to my surprise she agreed.
Had an internal struggle, should I really do this? She loves Negril, but not as much as I do. She is happy with two separate week long trips a year, but as most on here,
it is an obsession with me.
When the price got right a few weeks out, over the next few days I asked if she was sure she wanted me to do this. She would always say yes, do it.
So I finally did, and it was "I can't believe you are going to Jamaica without me".
Made a too short 4 day trip, I did miss her not being there, but no where near enough to make me wish I had not gone.
Did pretty much what we would have been doing, lay out on beach and float in sea most of the day. I did like eating where and when I wanted, more roadside food and less sitting
in a restaurant for an hour and a half or two hours.
The biggest realization that she was not there was at night. While in Negril she usually goes to bed by 10 or 11. She uses this time to rest up and de-stress from work, while
I like to go out and hang out on the street at night with vendor friends, or hear some music somewhere. When she's ready for bed, I will tell her where I plan to go, and when I
should be back. On the solo trip, it felt strange to go anywhere after dark. Although I believe Negril is as safe as anywhere as long as you keep your senses, it just felt intimidating
to go out at night alone in a foreign country. So I actually stayed closer to the room than I would have if she were there.
I was hoping to make it back for my second solo trip before the end of the year, it would have made four total for the year. Not looking good, but she is ready for the spring trip.
By the way greg/kelly, nice to see some fellow Tennesseeans here. Hope ya'll have a great trip.
Yes married and it can get a little rough around here after I book a flight and she see,s the Visa bill! "oh I was gonna tell you about that!lol"
Trip #59 most of February
I like solo to many places but especially Negril.
Took him with me to Jamaica three times but had the best time ever(so far) solo last year......12 weeks from today look out.
