is it weird to go to an all inclusive resort alone as a 22 year old?
Going to all inclusive resorts is the most moronic way to travel. My low class co-workers who want to stay in a budget do that type of gaudy thing though. They also like cruises which also seems moronic being on a traveling resort hotel on the water for most your vacation and have very limited time at any actual destination...
thats not what im asking. i dont care for travelling like that, learning about the culture, talking with the locals etc i just want to sit on the beach drink unlimted free booze and chill
I went to an all inclusive resort with a friend (gay) to Mexico and I can't imagine doing it by myself. Especially since I'm an introvert so he had to drag me to talk to people. And then it was fine, but when he wasn't around, I would just stay in my hotel room and cry. Very depressing. But if you are charismatic and not autistic it would be different maybe.
>i just want to sit on the beach drink unlimted free booze and chill
If you just want to drink yourself into oblivion why are you even traveling? It is probably cheaper to lounge as a hopeless alcoholic at home.
Also doing the same thing constantly is boring. You are not going to be content being a sitting alcoholic for even a very short one week vacation unless you are very, very boring.
mate i dont actually give a frick answer my question or go
lmao get owned alcoholic
are you mad because i said this? i didn't mean it in a rude way

Seriously. Don't post on SighSee again
The only thing that's weird is having such apprehensions instead of considering your own happiness.
well i was under the assumption its almost only familes and couples who go to places like this
Maybe so, but you deserve joy, too.

I'm actively encouraging a man to do what he likes. That's the exact opposite of what a woman would do.
To an extent, but a woman knows that a man doing this will be seen as creepy unless he has god tier social skills/confidence and doing this would probably just break him even more in 90% of cases. A woman would encourage a man to do this even though they recognize that fact deep down, to both satisfy the ego of feeling like they're helping someone and wise, but also satisfy the schadenfreude that women get when they tell their gross fat friends to "slay."
But if you genuinely do think OP will have fun from the bottom of your heart and you really don't think this will make him even more insecure than he already is (he is because he's asking us morons for travel advice), then I respect you.
not him but going to fancy restaurants in europe was a painful and borderline suicidal experience for me, but it also was a crucial step to me realizing how shallow i found that lifestyle and the people who go to those places
i then took a trip to Japan and avoided every sit down restaurant. and borderline cured my depression from 10 years
Good point, pain is part of growth, I get that. But you just went to some restaurants and felt a bit of pain. Imagine that Europe trip of yours but you were trapped in an all inclusive resort with the same people in those restaurants for a week. It would be fricking brutal.
Don't get me wrong, I knew a guy that did an all inclusive alone, but he was pretty attractive and generally a social guy that was easy to talk to and would strike up convos with strangers all the time. If you're a single dude and you just want to get drunk and enjoy beaches and maybe talk to some strangers, it would just make so much more sense to go to some big city in SEA or central america and chill in a public area, or go to some more remote part of some island nation, get some beers at the liquor store, and kayak to a private beach and chill/camp. All inclusive just doesn't make a whole lot of sense for a 22 year old male IMO. I could be totally wrong depending on OP's personality though.
As a single man myself, I want what's best for my brothers. Frick what women think. We were meant to rule the world, the least we could do is try to enjoy ourselves on vacation.
You can support your bros without being a misogynistic homosexual about it.
>You can support your bros without being a misogynistic homosexual about it.
This. Let's fight against misogyny, the patriarchy, and transphobia! Good to find a trans ally on this board! MtoF?
> homosexual
Sister, we can fight the patriarchy together without being homophobic. TERFs like you are a serious problem
Honestly, if you're not hyper extroverted and the kind of person that finds making friends at bars to be easy, then it can end up a little depressing. It's a hard pill to swallow, but the Thailand sexpatpill is honestly a solid bit of fun without the shame of being alone that usually comes with hanging around too many roastie couples. If you just boomer out for a week or two with some hoors, it's guilt free too. It only starts to get weird if you turn it into a lifestyle like some certain types of people.
Yes it is seen as very weird by other people. I was openly called mentally ill and dangerous by some hotel workers there who thought it was extremely weird that I was travelling alone to a resort. My friend secretly recorded them saying that they were going to try and file a false police report on me for trespassing, to see if they could get rid of me.
I did make good friends with some other people there though- that’s because I’m pretty outgoing. That was 7 years ago and I still go visit them every year. They’re bros now.
But yes some people will be ultra put off by it and will try to get back at you. I think it is seen as taboo, something you’re not supposed to do, so that’s why.

What the frick
all it takes is one weirdo with a power fantasy for shit like that to happen
If you're gay and it's a gay event/package, then it's probably okay. Just pack your lube. But if it's a normal heterosexual all-inclusive resort, then don't do it. There are plenty of ways to drink on a beach and chill w/out going the boomer route.
Honestly, yeah, you'll feel out of place. If you're going with a girlfriend or a friend group it's fine. Not my personal choice or something I do, but I don't judge others who do. It's easy to do. The places really are set up for couples and I avoid them solo because I don't want to stare at a hotel wall alone. You're clear in what you're describing you want. Why not go somewhere with a beach and bars that's not a resort. Belize and Panama come to mind where you can find a chill island to park it on, but also not be surrounded by couples to the point where sitting on the beach drinking feels social awkward.
I'm solo at one right now. There's always a few single guys, obvious who at mealtimes. Then there's usually the one single woman that the guys try to sit with at dinner. It's amusing to watch them get immediately friendzoned. If she wants to frick someone he'll know it before it's time to eat. Imagine how bored she is with, "So, where are you from?"
Be respectful to all staff even if they're grumpy. They'll make your time there easier if you're cool. Always tip the bartender.
