Is he serious? Would he forfeit the holiday really?

If you fell able I would definitely go with out him and have a fabulous time just to get up his hooter!
You will be safe yes, just do as you do here if you was to go anywhere alone EG dont accept drinks from strangers, walk alone in secluded areas at night.

Where are you staying? I know there a few lone travelers going over the Xmas period staying in Calangute area.

You can tell him that if he isn't going with you, the very least he can do is to drive you to and from the airport.

Is he the sort of person who would cut off his own nose to spite his face? I used to live with someone like that (childish), and after a while I had to leave him because it wore me down.

Pour gravy in all his shoes,empty his bank accout,cane all his credit cards,then stay in Goa for the rest of the season,also have your picture taken with a different waiter everyday and send it back to him! :rofl

God that brings back memories, I booked my hol 2 months ago with my partner, 2 weeks later we split up (HIM NOT ME), so I cancelled it straight away. We then decided to get back together (after he begged me of course)!!!!, so we re-booked and are now leaving on 27 Dec.....cant wait!!! No doubt your man will come to his senses as well!!!!!

MEN!!!!!!!!! :que :que :que

This sounds a bit Shirley Valentineish.

You should go......you'll have a great time and it may help you put some things in perspective and make a few changes!!

As said go! You'll have a great time. You always meet people out there. I'm a bloke so its different but i'd definatly go alone if someone pulled out.

I believe it. Do you not believe men can be awkward,stubborn and childish then Richard ;) :rofl

I must admit Richard it did make me wonder but why would someone post something like that if it wasn't true. I agree with Ellibee some men can be "swear" I was married to one for 28 years. Fortunately it took me some time but I got out and remarried a fantastic guy who loves Goa as much as I do.

I would say to Pauljim - go it alone I did in March only because OH was working and said I deserved another holiday. I always felt safe and did not feel intimidated at all. Just take precautions. Try to travel with taxi drivers you know don't walk alone in secluded areas. Have a good time !!!!!

:think This is a very strange post. Ive been a bit taken aback reading the opening post :really
I dont know what I would do in the circumstances, depends what the fall out is about etc or even if the post is genuine.

What if Pauljim's o.h. is a total prat; is he the sort of person who would to get back at her, throw all her stuff out of the house while she was away?
Reply

And if there isn't two of you, just go on your own and have a great time. I had a week alone over there in November (but for different reasons) and I had a fantastic time. Go to the meets, the guys will make sure you are okay and just heed the advice given by other HTers regarding personal safety - be as aware as you would be anywhere else.
