To want to go on holiday but a bit anxious to go alone?

[DumbleDee]

That's it really. Just need a break in the sun for a few days. Recently separated. Going away with girlfriends in September but would like a long weekend somewhere hot in the next month or two.

I go away with work alone so don't know why I'm feeling anxious.

Anyone any experience and have tips? Thinking a spa break may be easiest?

Maybe a company like friendship travel which specialises in holidays for solo travellers. I did a week away with them and it was one of my best holidays ever! Reps were wonderful and my fellow solo travellers were such good company.

When I'm alone, I always think, no-one knows you're actually alone, your Df could be ill or sleeping or not hungry so no-one is really sure, are they?
When I’m alone I don’t give a shit what they think. When I’m not I don’t judge solo travellers. Why would I? There’s nothing wrong with it!

^What? No one thinks that. Most people would look at you and feel sorry for you because you are on your own

How about a small group tour with G Adventures or Intrepid? I've done loads of tours like that on my own and there's normally loads of single people. Or Mark Warner if you want Europe in the sun - they do adult weeks. I met a group of girls years ago on MW and we became good friends and have all been on loads of group holidays since.

Oh and no one judges you for being alone. You can judge the squabbling miserable married.

My advice was in answer to this, if the OP felt anxious about being alone at some point while she was away. She asked for advice and tips.

cardibach You might not give a shit when you're alone but the OP said she was anxious to be alone thread title it's not all about you. And who said anything about judging solo travellers? Again only you! This thread isn't all about you.

Also greendale no one mentioned people looking at the OP and feeling sorry for her because she's alone. Only you! It's not all about you, is it?

And writergirl no one mentioned judging the OP for being alone, just you.

DumbleDee stated I go away with work alone so don't know why I'm feeling anxious. Anyone any experience and have tips

This is what I answered, perhaps you lot could have given OP some tips instead of saying that you don't give a shit, very helpful to OP I'm sure.

I've come back to this because I'm sick and tired of people attacking others helpful answers, trying to be big and clever and not giving any useful or helpful advice themselves.

I’ve been to Iceland on my own (bliss), then later, more recently, Paris, Germany, Switzerland and Austria. Go for it!

I love travelling solo! Did New York alone a couple of years back. It was one of the best things I've ever done.

You could always look at booking with a solo tour operator, if you're nervous about going 100% alone. It's obviously more expensive than if you're organising stuff yourself, but might be worth if it if you would feel safer and happier. Plus you'll usually find someone to talk to on the holiday.
