I have wanted to go on a solo trip to Disney World for about 10 years now. I was in Florida for a business trip and was going to end the trip by flying out of Orlando. I thought why not spend a couple of days there before I head home. DH was having none of it. First, we had just been there the year before. Second, why would I possibly want to be there alone? What would I do? He thought it would be a total waste. He just didnt understand.
I have tried periodically through the years to arrange a solo trip, even semi solo by joining my DB for a few days while he attended a conference. Nothing ever worked out.
I finally thought I had a solo trip arranged for this past January. I signed up for the ½ Marathon and was going to meet up with some Dis friends, but the bulk of the trip would just be me by myself, doing what I wanted to do. Then a friend decided she was going with me. Signed up before she TOLD me she was going with me. (sigh) Oh well, there goes that trip.
After January, I decided that was it and next year, Im going solo. I was telling another friend all about the trip and she was like I wish we could go together, just once. I wish we could also, but her DH would never let her go anywhere and leave their DD home for him to care for, not for over night, definitely not for 4-5 days. Guess what? He thought it was a great idea for her to go with me next year. She has been working really hard at losing weight and getting in shape and he thought the ½ would be a great next goal for her. Im excited that he said yes, but .there goes my solo trip. I told my DH that maybe I just need to give up, that maybe Im just not meant to go alone. (deep sigh)
