I'm wondering what the other solo travellers and those that would NEVER go to Disney solo.
Not too long ago, I was accused of being "anti-social" so I looked up the word. Definitely FAR from anti-social (which technically means to be against society, or purposely do things that are destructive to society). Nope. not me... However, I am introverted, or as I call it, selectively social. That, I knew. I have not always been this way, but over many years of dealing with a lot of different things with the people I should have been able to trust the most, AND maybe being in the midst of one too many shootings at the club or event, I tend to be extremely picky about who I trust, hang with, where I go, and people I spend time with. HOWEVER, I am fine in social settings. Not shy, not timid, I speak in public all the time, yet... I enjoy activities that I can do alone or with just close friends/family.
Thus, to ME, and those who are similar to me... we can enjoy Disney as a solo traveler. I have heard so many judgements and comments about how they cannot understand why I would do something like going to Disney alone. I'm like "why not?" I met a lot of great people, smiled the whole time Im there and was able to appreciate the parts of Disney that I may not have been able to enjoy with a group.
But I always wondered if someone who is extroverted (always looking for the thrill, or being the life of the party, and enjoying large events) could enjoy spending that kind of time, at Disney, alone and enjoy themselves.
Im not asking for debate or anything, I just wondered if its natural, or if its just a fluke that an introvert like myself could enjoy a solo trip as much as I did.
