A single traveller?

Posted by: moonstruckmoony on: August 6, 2011

So finally it is settled, I have found a tenant and have handed over my ‘lovely’ apartment to the young couple .. *sniff*sniff* :-( but I had made up my mind and this is the result of that.   Its been long since i have written anything at all, but I do miss writing.  Another reason being.. work, and almost every weekend I have been out.  So I have decided to take a break from it and just stay at home today.  Now I can no more threaten to move out! :-) .. but my parents are  better perceptive now..

Since yesterday, I have been upset, a  friend who wanted to take a break  (she kept pining that she hasn’t taken a break for last 2 years, so I said lets go), then she offered to arrange everything.  As I had already planned leaves, (but I was planning on taking a holiday by myself  a short one to test the waters, which I had already begun enquiring), so I was fine with this idea and she went on to make all the arrangements herself (or so she said), when I did ask on when do I book the tickets she kept delaying for a reason or another (in the meanwhile i had dropped all the other plans and was waiting for her to come back) at one point I even said that lets call off.. if she is not getting any hotel confirmation, but she said, no no.. lets do this.  Now when I had got all my hopes up and looking forward for a nice holiday.. she comes back and says that this is working out to be more expensive (all of a sudden).. I am so annoyed.. I can’t believe I have been led on.. (She’s been dating someone and having issues there.. I strongly think finally that worked out)..I do not have problems with she going off with her BF,  its just that I feel very upset, when I do not have any time left on hand to plan anything.. I post pone my holiday from the week of Aug 15th to the 31st..  I am still sooooo pissed.. right now that she kept on stringing me on.. . I don’t know why I keep believing people .. when my instinct says otherwise ( she did not want to take on the holiday by herself, cause it would work out to be more expensive than sharing)!  I seems like one whiney kid now.. but I get to be this once in a way right?

Looking postively,  this has made resolution much stronger to depend on myself and God of course than on friends.  Nothing like your own family, but they do get on your nerves and you would want getaway from everyone once in a way…  I guess this is a push to take the plunge.. take my personal life seriously.. give it more time!

Considering I have always lived a very sheltered life, its hard for me not to be around people wherever I go.. Its time now to take that bold step and be comfortable by being me.. While I was looking at travel options.. here is something I came across.. Lovely tips.. I love it! http://solofemaletravel.net/2011/02/being-single-woman-valentines-day/

So I have to take one step at a time.. a date with myself.. a coffee.. a movie.. a dinner.. ! and then a holiday.. (oh! Lord, I am looking to have you for company :-) ) .. but I guess i need to get this done soon.. if I have to plan a holiday anytime soon.

Hello thanks for visiting my site and reading my post. And yes, traveling solo is the best thing that you can do for your life. trust me on this ;)

thanks for your encouraging post… trying take baby steps :)

Try women on wanderlust. They organise trips for women withint country and even international. Best to arrange it yourself :)

Oh.. I checked them out.. too expensive even for simple trips.. also I heard a lot of issues with them. I am happy being by myself I realised.. Just need to take that leap.. I am debate and over analyze it too much that’s my problem

While I have planning a trip to some place all alone for the last few years, it hasnt really happened. I dont think I have the guts to see it through… best of luck to you!!! :)

Oh.. thats my worry too.. that I might not really like it.. but I am taking one step at a time..lets see if I can ever make it! :) everyone I have spoken to keeps telling how ‘not so fun’ it is to take a trip alone!:)
