Yes, Andrew, it is good to hear about a solo cruise from another perspective. I was recently widowed in Nov. 2012. I surprised myself even thinking about going on a cruise by myself. Do's and don'ts keep popping into my head, so of course I can't make a decision. As much as I feel the need to get away, I can't get myself to go ahead with it. Madmarti:eek:

I know your dilema. I am doing a transatlantic with my girlfriend (both of us recently widowed) on 4/8/13 aboard the Royal - Liberty of the Seas I/we have been talking too many on the roll call and they have lots of social activities planned. There is already 158 people registered for Meet & Mingle (Wow). I am sure your deceased wife would want you to continue to enjoy your life just as I believe our husbands would want that for us. There is never a good time to begin but everyday of unhappiness and lonliness is just a wasted day. Look at the cruise. Very inexpensive for 12 days of sheer relaxation and fun which I am sure you could probably use a little of. Please do not think we are looking for anything but to see others like us live the rest of their lives being contend with the time we all have left.

I cannot say anything different than has already been said because I do everything that everyone else has suggested. Just wanted to add if your schedule is flexable then watch for deals because sometimes you can get deals for solo cruisers. I am doing a transatlantic in April that I did nt have to pay 200% for and that makes a huge difference.

I see that you are doing a transatlantic in April. What cruise line and what date are you going? I am going with my girlfriend on Royal (Liberty of the Seas) 4/8/13
