Do you ever go out alone?
| Tue, 08-07-2007 - 2:36pm |
I've been wanting to go out since, I don't know, last week and everyone's just been busy when I'm free or some variation on the like. I'm tempted to go to a bar and have a martini (I hardly ever drink them, I don't know WHY I have a craving) or a glass of wine or something by myself after work but I'm not sure...has or does anyone else go out alone, particularly to bars? I feel like I'd practically be putting a target on my back, but maybe not considering the time and if it's a nicer bar...

I've gone to a few bars alone and I went to a movie alone last week. Doesnt bother me at all. When you move to a city without any friends, you learn to entertain yourself. Thats how I got over going alone because I didnt want to miss anything or wait around. Now that I'm back home, I have one friend that is still around but with our schedules, it can be difficult to get together.
If you go to a bar, be sure to control your consumption and watch who mixes your drinks.
When I was younger, that is, as young as you are :) I used to go out by myself all the time, and everywhere. Bars, pubs, clubs, gigs, huge 40,000+ capacity rock festivals, EVERYWHERE - and regularly. It was all great fun - I used to love it. I didn't give a
%^&* who thought what, and how I was perceived. It stopped being fun around the time I turned 30 - I honestly don't know why, it's probably just me. Nowadays at 36.. no way lol. I don't see a point, or how I could possibly enjoy it. Again this is only my experience - other posters here will offer you theirs, I'm sure.
I never have and would probably feel really weird about it if I did.
