My Mom totally does not understand why in the world someone would travel solo, least of all her daughter. LOL
She very different from me personality wise.
She told me she could *never* eat alone at a restaurant, watch a movie alone, shop alone, travel only (or do anything alone really!) LOL.
To me traveling, watching movies, shopping alone means I get to do whatever I want to so without having to worry about what others want. It is kind of selfish I guess, but it doesn't matter because I'm alone. LOL.
Honestly I love shopping alone. Other people get really annoying, my mother especially. She's so nitpicky about everything and of course everything I want to purchase is a "horrible" decision.
Watching movies alone is also awesome. I do sometimes ask people to join me, but if they cannot, what am I supposed to do, cancel my plans? Apparently that's what my mother would do.
I just find that's kind of a sad way to live. So if no one every went out with her again, she would stay inside for the rest of her life.
I asked others to join me in going to Vegas, but people didn't have time, or didn't have the budget or didn't want to go. That's fine. I'm not canceling just because I'm solo.
If I am ever to get married, I definitely need a lot of space most days. I don't need my "other half" because I'm whole already.
Does anyone else travel solo? What do you like/dislike about it and why do you travel solo?
