True, true. Ihave gone to the movies alone, all of one time. lol. And I did kinda cheat. I went to the one at 281 & 1604, where its nothing but soccer moms and young families. It is a new theater, so I justified it to myself that way - saying that I wanted to see the new theater. Truth be told, there are 2 right by the university, and they are both about 5 minutes closer to where I live. I went there because I knew I wouldnt run into anyone I knew.
I guess I was/am afraid that soemone I'd know would spot me, and I am really outgoing, and always with other people. I think theyd wonder why I was alone. like a "why would he be alone?" kinda thing. Even tho I KNOW in my mind I could just say it was a spur of the moment kinda thing and I couldnt find anyone - which was the truth.
I used to hate showing up at chapter parties alone. Just felt like all the guys expected me to have a beautiful gal on my arm, or with a bunch of "outside friends" - other greeks, whathave you. I got over that by just understanding that no one prolly really cared who I was with, as long as I was there. And I made a routene of arriving at functions, saying hello to and chatting with the first person I know, getting comfortable, then going around the party socially and saying hello to everyone. By then I was well at ease. Now, I never think about it, its not an issue.
Still wouldnt go to a bar or club alone. I never go to hook up, just go to have a good time with my friends. If my friends werent there, why would I go????
