I used to go out when I was single a lot -- mostly with buddies from work or my cousin ((who is married and was at the time we'd go to the local pub)). Now that I'm dating someone, I still hang out with those peoples, but not as much. I miss the food at the pub a lot though... good stuff.<br />

In all honesty, I'm a very shy and insecure person. I also have a problem trusting people so I guess I'm too sheltered.<br />

I mostly used to go out in the summertime by myself. Went barhopping and people watching in the Village. Its pretty cool in the summer. Plus you make random friends with patrons and bartenders, which later on get you free drinks if they like you enough and the bars in the summer are usually less crowded cause everyone ventures to the Hamptons or something preppy like that.

When I was in my mid 20's to early 30's I'd go out alone. I was living in a town with decent bars, though. I don't have friends anymore, and I don't drive drunk, so I don't go out at all anymore.

Doing stuff on your own is nice sometimes. Gives you time to think.

<p>Socially I think I'll go out alone on about 3 occassions: 1) To the movies, I have been inspiried by certain movies that I have to see them the night they come out 2) To get some food, anything from a quick slice of pizza to a sit-down meal and 3) To watch sunday football at a bar for 8 straight hours. </p><p>Other than that I'm always going out with friends. </p>

<font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3">Before I met my wife I would go out by myself to a bar for dinner and drinks and watch a game, or read a book. It's not as fun as going out with people but often it was better than staying home. </font>

Who has the time? As you get on in life, though, you realize that the friendships and bonding made in your formative years are worth keeping. As a result, my old neighborhood and high school crew get together for Monday night/Sunday night Redskins games and Vegas trips. It takes you right back to when you didn't have a million responsibilities, and you get to act like the real fuck up you really are, at least for a couple of hours occasionally..

I have no problems go out alone to places to shop, though I generally like when I go to social places like bars or restaurants to be with friends. This past St Patrick's Day I went to a bar after work with some friends for about an hour before they had to go. After that I still felt like being outside and having some more drinks so I went to a bar alone, and it felt odd sitting at the bar all by myself while others around me were with friends.

I never really minded going out alone. At least once every couple months I'll hop the bus to Manhatten and just wander around all day hitting my favorite places. I love it, and I love the fact that I'm by myself. The killer is the bus ticket though about 40-50 round trip, although it still might be cheaper than paying for the gas to take a car.

I guess I just feel weird sub-conciously that people are staring at me like "look at him all alone" or something. I know people probably don't even think anything, though it's a weirdness on my part.

<p>when I was single I would go out all the time by myself. I would go to the bar every friday night alone. like many of you, I too do not have many/any friends. Now that I am with someone, I still go out by myself, but not as much. I do still go for a ride in the car alone to clear my head and to think. I look forward to that time alone. My GF understands, and gives me that space, and vice versa. </p>

<p>I guess I just feel weird sub-conciously that people are staring at me like "look at him all alone" or something. </p><p>I used to worry about that too. Then I realized it was better than having to coordinate with and be at the mercy of other people. I go where I want, when I want, and stay for as long as I want.</p>
