This depends on the context and situation. Men go and return with Odysseus hundreds of times.
No, Poseidon (God of the sea) did not want Odysseus to return home to Ithaca because Odysseus blinded his son the cyclops Polythemus. The fates had declared that Odysseus would not return home until he had suffered many trials.
I do not know that the cyclops did anything as revenge, but in the book the Odyssey ,it explains that the Cyclops' father , the god Poseidon, is angry at Odysseus and will not let Odysseus return to his country, whereas the other gods take pity on him.
Odysseus convinces the swineherd that he is being truthful by describing in detail items that only Odysseus would know, such as the fig tree he received as a child from Ithaca. He also mentions knowing the layout and details of Odysseus' palace, which further proves his identity.
Odysseus waits for the cyclops to return in hope that the cyclops will be a good host and give him a present. It is really Odysseus' curiousity that compels him to stay.
Yes he did.
