Solo diving comfort and # siblings poll

[Guy Alcala]

Looking at the poll data, I'm guessing that the need to get away from siblings to somewhere more quiet may have been the motivating factor for many who find doing things solo enjoyable. While the # of children per woman is probably lower now than it was when the majority of active divers were born (IIRR the diving average age demographic is in the forties now), there does seem to be an unusual number of solo divers with 3 or more siblings.

I have 4 siblings (none currently dive). My wife and 3 kids dive.

Interesting poll.... I guess like what dumpsterDiver said above, since I'm not an only child, it must be the ugly thing that makes me solo

Seriously, I just find it relaxing to sometimes go solo. But I really enjoy buddy dives as well.... I guess I'm just "conflicted" about what I really enjoy the most (and ugly ).

Best wishes.

I just love Diving. If the crowd wants to come along - no problem ( I can lose them if I reallywant to - just kiddin'). If no one want to join me well- "this where I'm going and this is when I'll be back.":mooner:

I have two siblings. We were all born in a three year period so we were very close. I did like to get way from them from time to time though Just like I like to get away from other people sometimes when I dive.
