solo at the bar?

the wolf

Ever go to the bar alone, and sit at at the bar with all the old men that have no one to go home to?

I'm Sitting here, and yes, feel very pathetic.

Anyone else ever go it alone at the bar?

No but at least we finally got to see that "Awesome!!!" video today.

I like checkin' into a bar all by myself sometimes; get involved with some of the conversation, you'll probably learn something, or at least have something to laugh about. They're usually an interesting crowd, remember "There's a lot more old drunks around than old doctors."....

Plenty of times. Usually just to go grab something to eat and have a few beers if the lady isn't around and I'm on my own for dinner. Some people are afraid to do it, but I actually enjoy it.

I've gotten over that feeling and go to the bar whenever I want. I'll go when there's a game on and I don't have any beer at home, or if I just want a change of scenery. I've definitely done a bunch of posting here when it happens.

It all started after my last big breakup and I wasn't used to having nothing to do. Now I just go when I feel. There's no reason to feel like your pathetic.

The only time I've ever felt embarrassed is that time someone I knew came and sat beside me.

There have also been times where I've technically been at bars alone, but a friend of mine has either been the bar manager or bartender. I guess that's a different story though.

Depends on the bar, day and time.

Are you scared of going to the movies alone too?

I don't think it would normally bother me. Circumstances I guess.

I have been listening into some conversations. Entertaining indeed. I think they think I'm a cop or osomething.
Either that or I'm just not good enough for them. I guess my liver is in too good shape. Hehe.

I won't go to the movies alone. No way.

Won't lie, I kind of enjoy seeing movies alone sometimes.

Yeah. Kinda why I'm here now. Not really broken up, but in a weird place with my girl.

I did come in to eat too. Now I'm just Sitting here because I have absolutely no place to go.

I couldn't handle another 13 hours of just Sitting in the car reading until its time to go to work tomorrow.

Just have a few drinks, enjoy your food, watch whatever's on the TV (if they're present), and strike up a conversation with an interesting person if you want. If you're posting on your phone, remember that surfing the web an posting on online forums uses up a lot of battery. Just enjoy yourself and don't overthink things.

In NYC bars are your home, anyday, anytime.

He had to go to the movies alone. Would you want to go WITH him? :shock:

No problem going to either the bar or the movies solo, I think I skipped out on work last year for March Madness and went to the bar all afternoon.

I think it also depends on the city as well. Though I think you can't go to the bar by yourself on a Friday or Saturday no matter where you are, maybe even Thursday too. Wednesday is fine.

But why aren't you at a strip bar, never alone there
