...but they DO go alone.
What I mean is that we all know that diving alone is dangerous and should be avoided, but nonetheless we all do dive/hunt alone, and it's very often, for two main reasons: 1) no buddies available and /or 2) for the intimate pleasure of an introspective experience.
Knowing that it's dangerous, however, is a very important starting point: follow Marwan's adivices, don't push yourself beyond your limits, improve depth, bottom time and difficulty level only STEP BY STEP, very prudently and modestly.
PS- Even if "don't go alone" is theoretically the best adivce to give, I honestly think it's useless to tell newbies "don't go alone", because we all know they will do that.
