Thank You very much paddy Anne for your suggestions. We actually have never had problems with others on any other vacation we've gone on and we go about every six months. Just having never been on a ship for 7 days in the middle of the ocean makes me a little nervous.

Hello, my partner and I will be booking our first cruise next week for the Carnival Valor in Feb. of 2009. I was looking up different reviews and came across this thread and thought maybe someone on here could ease my thoughts. We are going with about 5 other straight married couples who we love like family, but I am a little nervous. For one I haven't been on a boat in about 10 yrs, my partner has never been on anything that goes in the water and we are both a little scared about getting seasick. I have done some research for different things we can try, so hopefully we're okay in that department. Also, I'm a little afraid of what to expect on the ship as far as our relationship is concerned. My friends tell me that I always think of the worst but I don't want people staring at us the whole time or anything like that. I want us to feel comfortable. What if the beds need to be pushed together? Are they gonna do it without judgement or comment? I guess I'm just not sure if the Carnival Valor is "gay-friendly". I don't want you guys thinking I'm some paranoid weirdo, I'm just afraid of what could happen. Thank You for listening. J
