Sometimes I'm glad I'm single

[Jamie77]

I plan WDW trips 2 years in advance knowing I'll still be single by then. Every time I think of getting married I get the nagging feeling of not being able to stay at the WL for a week solo. Somehow I've been wearing an invisibility shield my whole life so that helps.

Even when I am not single, I prefer to travel alone. I am also such a brat that the idea that someone let me do anything is completely foreign to me.

The rules are if you travel with me:
1. You follow my itinerary
2. Don't complain or you will go home
3. Be my sexy eye candy or you will go home (only applies to the opposite sex)
4. If you break any of the rules expect to go home.

Do you see a trend. Don't ruin my trip because I prefer to be there without you anyway but since you are there remember it is my trip.

YES!!!

I thought you knew Duck and I better, you know we would meet up with you and any other Disney loving guy anytime.

I was referring to having a significant other in my life that did not like Disney and would tell me what to do or I can't go. I've had one of those in my life and I'll never do that again.

You mean the Duck actually likes Mickey? <runs and hides from the Duck>

Welcome to Disneyholics Anonymous. Who would like to start tonight's meeting?

I do have to agree that for me I'm so used to having traveled solo for so long that I do like to travel alone, but yeah, I don't want it to be forever. It'll be nice to be down in WDW in a couple of weeks with others.

Not to totally change the subject, but my DH gets this way with video games… he has so many male friends who have to ask their wives permission to play their Xbox or whatever, meanwhile last summer I scheduled a surprise trip to take DH to a 3 day classic gaming tournament and entered him in with the absolute knowledge that for 6 hours or so each day, I'd be on my own… Same sort of concept.

If I was the type of woman who got snippy every time DH was on his gaming systems, he wouldn't have married me and if he didn't see the fun in going to WDW, I wouldn't have married him. I don't get why people marry people who don't accept or quite frankly enjoy major aspects of their lives. Not saying they have to have EVERYTHING in common but if going to WDW once a year is important to you, you should really hold off on getting hitched until you find someone who enjoys it too.

I think some people marry out of desperation… very sad.

that's exactly how I feel. Sometimes I travel alone other times my husband travels alone. Nothing wrong with that. We don't do it often but if I don't want to do something he will go and do it and if I want to do something that he doesn't I go and he doesn't care. We both know where home is and that we have someone who cares for us at home when we return. I don't get why people get married to someone who can't understand them. If I didn't have such understanding caring husband, I would prefer to be single. Nothing wrong with being single and free.

Wow you mean to tell me I can get married and still be able to take trips alone if I wanted to. I might have to try this whole marriage thing out one of these days. I just need to find a girl that appreciates a full figured man

I don't think of myself as "fiercely independent" but I was actually a bit bummed when my husband insisted on going to Disney with me. I don't know why because he's amazingly easy going so he's awesome to travel with but I thought it would be so relaxing and fun to do Disney by myself. I was single for about 3 years straight before I met him and they were some of the best years of my life. I almost never had that desire to be in a relationship. It was such a fun, relaxing way of life to just do whatever I want, go where ever I want, in fact when I first met him I wasn't looking to be in a relationship at all so I was shocked and a bit unnerved to have feelings for him.

You sure can travel alone. That's what trust is there for. As for being full figure, I wouldn't worry about that. Not every women look for a skinny man. The ones that do have so little to love and don't have a personnal heater next to then at all times. Their lost

Many of us both appreciate and prefer a big teddy bear.

That's funny....sometimes I wish I was single!

Ok...to be fair, I do have a good husband. But, he definitely does not share my addiction to the Orlando fun in sun. We've gone twice together, and took step-son once, and well, he thinks he's reached his limit. So, I now go with my sisters or friends or solo. And if he doesn't like it, I just don't care. I let him watch hockey, football, soccer, tennis, golf, rugby, baseball, basketball, or any other sport year round without complaint, and I guarantee that for the 7 days that I am gone each year away from him enjoying my time, he's sitting on his butt enjoying his time in front of the TV without me complaining. Its a win-win situation for both of us!

However, maybe he didn't like Disney because I was commander and chief anal retentive person. Well, who cares....I still get to go on vacation once a year to my favourite place...with or without him, I still have a great time!

Hi everyone

I'm not single but I still love traveling alone.. much less complcated in my opinion.. your are way more flexible and can really visit the places you wanna see without bothering about your partners mood.. maybe I will change my opinion as soon as I got children

have a nice day

I just turned 50 this year and have been divorced since 1988 and haven't dated anyone in about ten years.

Even though this isn't quite the way I intended my life to turn out, it hasn't been that bad. I enjoy my independence (I am an only child, so the adjustment was not that bad) and I enjoy coming and going as I please. And since I started traveling, it has been wonderful. Not many of my friends have been to the places I have been over the past ten years.

I am thrilled to be by myself next week for my current trip; I might even lay in bed all one day just for fun!

I tell my friends if I ever get remarried, it would be to.... Winnie the Pooh....... he almost always quiet, gives great hugs, wears no pants, and eats only honey.....Or should I say hunny....

Hi my name is heather, i am 35 years old and from the beautiful st. louis

I love being a single.. I'm fine with the situation because I worked pretty much everyday in the last few years .. In a realtionship this wouldn't be possible I guess.. maybe with the right man but I believe "mister right" doesn't even exist anyway so its all right

Have a very nice day!

Being single rocks! I don't have any problems traveling alone and creating my own adventures.

Nothing wrong with being single. Well, unless you're trying to find somebody. Then it's a problem.

CaptainHypersock out.

Hi everyone,

I travel alone because I enjoy it. At 47 I've never been married, never fathered children, and act like I'm 11 years old. Set in my ways, I've often wondered why it has been so easy to remain single, but then I realize that it's more fun than to be in a relationship with someone incompatible.
