    You think so? It's not like I never went on holidays alone,or didn't go to a restaurant by myself.I don't do it often,that's all.

    Just a very unusual lady. Nothing to do with restaurants etc .

    I'd like to see you interviewed by Samlad.

    Well,I had a chance to be interviewed,not by Samlad though,but I would prefer to keep personal info private.Moreover I'm not based in Ireland,I only visit from time to time,so there would be no use for me to have it on the site.

I enjoy it & find you meet people that you wouldnt otherwise have met if travelling with friends or partners. You also have the freedom to do what you want, when you want rather than having to go along with others plans.

    Being a touring escort & a massive football fan I always go to pubs to watch the footie by myself & frequent restaurants alone too. A girls gotta eat
    Many people travel for work and eat out or drink in bars alone. I have no problem with doing it even when not touring. I dont ever feel like a billy no mates & I'm perfectly happy in my own company.

    I wouldnt have a problem going to the cinema but I would draw the line at going to a nightclub by myself.

    I love travelling and highly reccommend going it alone. You never know who you may meet

    The world is your oyster, get out there & enjoy it x
    I would love to be like that but i'm just way so much up in my head that i get paranoid and talk myself out of things , like if you were an introvert would it be a good idea or would you just be panicking all the time haha but it does feel like i am missing out on so much stuff and time is ticking away fast anybody else feel like that?

    I know this is stupid question but where would you meet the people it would take alot for me to strike up a conversation with a stranger to be honest knowing what to say and so on

    it all depends on if you answer yes to this:

    where I am is more important than who Im with

    if you answer yes to that then you will be fine, if not then thats different

    it will also depend on the kind of things you want to do while travelling too. if its travel with lots of travel/exploration rather than a lazy beach holiday then. it comes down to can you entertain yourself or not I think, or do you need constant interaction with other people. if it will work for you depends more on your personality, its one of those things you wont know till you try maybe start with something alot shorter, say a week/weekend and see how you get on

    First of all I'm a true gemini with two personalities sometimes i even hate to talk with myself, other times can't imagine better company weird I'm aware...

    Usually I'm on my own when it comes to cinema, i hate push anyone watch something he/she don't want, vice versa, now i share the same interest with someone, so go together, we can discuss afterwards which is great!

    As per holidays, last year been to Barcelona with my bestie, and her sister, whole story ended up with a huge fight, we weren't talking for months after, i had a day to kill alone, because my late night flight, had much better time seen more things, i was walking they always wanted to take underground, because they can't walk, they were tired..etc.
    She blamed me we only visited places i wanted to visit, and spent a whole day on beach...ohh yeah wasted time lay on the beach in one of the coolest city in Europe
    Good bye Ireland!
