I would hope that you keep the same careful watch over ANY dive buddy you are with....regardless of their gender.

I started diving solo from day one and most of this is done from shore. I do own a boat, but when I dive from it there is always someone on the boat, at least, for obvious reasons. One out of fifty dives is with a buddy, but they are always someone I know and trust~ as far as I'm concerned a buddy is an obligation, you have no choice but to complete the dive with your buddy, no matter when that happens to be. Solo diving is different and for me at least, requires a different mind set, the dive starts and ends differently as far as preparation is concerned (both mentally and equipment wise). I do contact my wife and she knows where and when, as well as my arrival home, beyond that, I'm on my own. As far as depth goes, that depends on the day, the dive, and what I feel like doing~ preperation and confidence and comfort in the water. Safe diving, Jim
