If I were a young single guy, why would I want to go to a predominately couples resort? Never really had a problem with any single guys at the resort, although it has been our experience with a few that have the idea that the married women are there to "swing" with another guy. We have talked to several while there, and most have been respectful and cool, but there were some who had to be told to control their wandering hands...or lose them. Having been there, if I were a young single guy, Id find a resort with a younger less attached crowd. Just my opinion.
I mentioned earlier in this thread that three years ago the first people we met in the Sexy Pool were four single guys from Nebraska. They were having drinks with two English girls and it was obvious they were having an awesome time. We hung around the pool and Paty'Os with them every day. They certainly never crossed any line with us - or the two single English girls...or anyone else at the resort from what we saw. Not every group of single guys fit in as well as this group did...but neither does every couple. To suggest that TTR can't be a great resort for single guys just isn't accurate. When there is a thread started by a poster like this one, I think it makes sense to post the facts...just as Steve did in his post. From there the original poster can weigh that against their own expectations and either book TTR or someplace else. I guess it just bums me out a little when the vibe on this site becomes "exclusive" rather than "inclusive". Nobody know you and nobody gives a shit.
Opinions on any subject, including this one, is usually based on past experiences. We have no problem with single guys at TTR. And we havent really seen any large groups of single guys there. My only opinion was that if I were a single guy, I think Id go somewhere more known for younger single crowds. But hey...to each his own. Heck, we've had a 1 or 2 couples that were more aggresive than any single guy we've been around at TTR.
Lots of great comments pro & con and it keeps the site active. If we were not going with 8 other couples and meeting some old friends there, we would definitely be going somewhere else that is couples only. We are both pushing 50 (I'm over 50 and she would kill me to say her exact age) I'm a retired military pilot (U.S. Army 7th Infantry Regiment) and have been all over the world in my youth, we used to fly in & out of the Virgin Islands all the time and when hitting the beach or clubs as a group of single guys, we always got that look from couples who just did not want to be bothered by us and we would rip it up get drunk, loud and carry on and there was always one in our group that would take it too far with someone's wife or gf and it always ended bad. We just wanted to have a good time while off duty, but alcohol makes people do things they normally would not do especially testosterone filled single guys. Those days are way behind me now and all we want to do is hang out with our friends let the ladies have their fun dressing sexy and letting loose without the worry of some single guy or guys bothering us. This is our 3rd time to Temptation and as long as the group keeps going we will most likely continue to go, we choose early February as not be there during spring break when the younger crowd comes in. Maybe I'm just getting old and grumpy.
singles in our opinion , why dont we all let the drama of this go and let the chips fall where they may......we are all going on vacatiion, im leaving drama behind and aim to have a great time, meeting new people couples or singles. CHEERS everyone ill buy first round at the sexy bar!!!!:lotsofmichaelfs:
I love how all the single guys get all butt-hurt every time this subject pops up, I suppose the obvious answer is that it's not your wife getting groped as she goes into the bathroom or has to endure the commentary from the frat boys.
I've there w a gf 4 times n single 6 times. Never had one issue with a husband or bf. N really i've seen more married guys cross the line than single ones. My point in this whole thing is we can't assume new single guys coming to TTR will automatically be bad. Give people a chance
I have been there once with a girlfriend and 8 times with a buddy so I can add some perspective to this. My Buddy and I are in our 30's and 40's respectivley and the reason we come to TTR is because of the party and the vibe. We don't want to do spring break with 20 something Jersey Shore guys because sooner or later they would upset us and something would happen.....there have been a few times where we had to straighten some of them out at the resort. My last trip there with a girlfriend was great becasue she stood up for herself and if a douchebag got grabby or to close she pointed over at me(Bigjay) and things settled right down. She enjoyed most of her time there and even the single people we met. Going as a single this year and other times I expect we will have to same kind of fun. Drinking,laughing,partying and maybe we meet some single women maybe we don't....but who cares? it's about the friends you make. As for the orginal poster I think if he and his friends go they will learn very quickly what is acceptable behaviour and if not they will be alone and bored. I also have to say I have seen some guys be very dispectful to married(intoxicated) ladies and thats not right and we have stepped in on those occassions as well. I can understand why men don't want to be hypervigilant on vacation. However to be honest some of the most alarming instances of disrespect I have seen have been married men whos wives went to bed.
Sorry is there not other threads on here you can peruse if this one is not up to your satisfaction? this particular subject is very dear to some., and the dialogue on this thread is educational, thought provoking and even profound. But I missed the part where you get to make the great decree.
