    I don’t know, is it really a solo trip if you’re with 2 other people? Something isn’t adding up here. What does solo even mean when there are 2 others hanging around?

    And if I already have this many questions, then who knows? Why can’t those two guys be your parents? Maybe you aren’t on a solo trip at all, you’re on a trip with two other guys.

      i talked about this before on here. i consider it a solo trip cause i can go and do wherever & whatever i want whenever i want, i don’t even have to interact with the 2 guys if i dont want to. they were sent among by my parents cause i got anxious about being completely on my own & it’s my first ever experience like this, so they thought it’d be better to have someone watch over me.

        I’m only going to scroll so far through your post history and I didn’t see your explanation, so sorry for making you repeat yourself. That said, I think solo is the wrong word for it if they’re explicitly there so you aren’t alone. Just say you’re on a trip, there’s no shame in that.

        You can emphasize that you’re on your first trip without your parents, that’s still a pretty big step towards independence, but I’m going to fixate a little too hard on it being a solo trip you’re taking with friends.

          thing is, they’re not my “friends”. their task is to be more of my “shadow”. the fact that i willingly deviated from that for my own pleasure is another thing entirely, lol.

          but yeah this is splitting hairs atp
