RE: Eating Alone In A Restaurant
I've never had a problem eating alone because if I waited for family or friends to be available then I would never go out! There was this one time when I was attending a conference in NYC. The group I was in took off without me. Refusing to eat at McD's or Subway, I found a delightful Italian restaurant. I was the ONLY patron. Let me tell you - I had 4 incredibly handsome waiters catering to me. I had such a lovely experience that I think the tip was larger than my bill. LOL I would do it again in a heartbeat for the quality of food and service and I'm perfectly happy keeping my own company. :)

I agree! One of my friends actually responded that it "was sad" that I went to the movies by myself. really? I'm not talking to anyone while watching, right? Going out alone is definitely an exercise in confidence.
I haven't been for a while but I used to love going to film festival movies by myself, often during the day in a half empty cinema. I felt much more absorbed in the movie that way.
