There’s still not been anything on that I want to see, or at least, the ones I did want to see I have had people to go with.
Ah well, one day I’m sure.

How to go to the movies alone
It made me
independent
 "I did not miss out on a great movie so I felt good."
How I did it: Well, I picked the movie, bought the ticket and popcorn and sat down and watched the movie. Since I went to an early show there were not a lot of people there and I did notice quite a few "singles". Lessons & tips: Don't be self conscience, lots of people go to the show alone and who cares!! Resources: Movie guide??? |

How I did it: You just have to decide to go. Pick a movie you've really been wanting to see. That helps. I like to go on weeknights. It's a nice mellow activity after a rough day at work, plus it's less crowded. You can concentrate more, and since it's you and only you, if the movie is bad, you don't have to feel guilty for dragging a friend to see it. In high school, I could have used this advice with Fincher movies… Read how I did it…

How I did it: I tend to go to the movies almost always alone. The first time was because none of my friends wanted/ had time to see the movie I really wanted to see. And after that I just started going on my own, unless someone asks me to join them. But I almost never ask someone to join me. Sounds quite anti-social, but hear me out! Read how I did it…

happy!
How I did it: I only went alone because my friend bailed on me. But I really wanted to see the movie, so I didn't see any reason why I couldn't still go!People think going to the movies alone is like, a loser-ish thing to do. Well, stop worrying about what people think of you and go see a great movie. Nobody there is going to care whether or not you are with someone.

It made me
introspective 
How I did it: I drove to the theater, bought a ticket and took a seat near the back. The movie was so good I didn't notice anyone else and felt no negative feelings inside myself or directed at me. Then I drove home and went to a party with a lot of friends and people. The juxtaposition was very interesting. Read how I did it…

because i don’t want to have to depend on someone else being free on friday night if there’s something i really want to see. i almost missed out on an amazing movie that i’d been dying to see the day it opened because i depended too much on other people who don’t care. if i only make plans with myself, i don’t have to worry about someone flaking out on me. besides.. i think it’ll make me feel more independant… i hope…
Soon, very soon.

I have decided I will probably be doing this for the new Night at the Museum movie. I don’t know anyone else who wants to see it and I really don’t want to miss it, so I’m just going to go on my own.

I have no problem going out to eat alone, or anything like that, but for whatever reason have always felt there was a stigma to going to the movies alone.
So, in order to fight that fear, I will go to see the next film I fancy seeing that no-one I know is interested in. This has happened in the past so shouldn’t take long to find one!

A theatre in Lansing is going to be showing this classic starting 3/3. I’d like to take P, but for some reason, I might have to make this viewing a solitary one. ♥

just do it even if you think everyone is there with somebody they probably aren’t. besides what are the chances you’ll see any of these people again. don’t let other people stand in your way.
