    Yay. If I want to see a movie, lack of company is not going to stop me. I go to the movies alone pretty regularly actually.

    I've never gone to a movie by myself, but I wouldn't have a problem with it.

    I want to go see this new Man of Steel movie, I know absolutely nothing about Superman, I just know it looks decent. My GF is tied up with her family this weekend and neither of my brothers wanna go. I want to see it before I go to one of my jobs on Tuesday because the kids there will ruin it completely and tell me everything. My friends already saw it.

    I think I'm gonna brave the movies alone tonight or tomorrow.

    I agree with thrilla. Nay for single people. Yay for married people. If you're married with kids you might go alone for quiet time. If you're single, I'm waiting for that Shit to come out on redbox.

    Is it true that when you go to a movie or restaurant alone, everyone points and laughs at you?

    Also, they might think I'm gay. And with all the paparazzi out and about nowadays, I must maintain my hot image with my fans.

    hell yes why not. It's not like you can engage in a conversation with someone during a movie anyway.

    No, but you can feel them up. Also, you can engage in mutual subversion when you open your hidden candy bar as quietly as possible. Only the two of you know the secret.

    I think doing things on your own like going to a movie/ casino or just out an about by yourself it can show maturity and that your comfortable being by yourself. It does not always mean your some sort of loner. It all depends if you know how to interact with people you don't know.

    Yay. If you feel weird about it, take a note pad and pretend you are a critic.
