To go in?

21 replies

Meeting hubby in city centre for nice meal a drinks. Made an effort so a little bit more dressed up than the probable usual Friday night crowd.

I'm running early and should be there for about 5.15. He isn't due in until 5.45ish.

Do I go in and have a drink alone? Will I look like a loser?

Does it matter if you look like a loser? Just go for a drink if that’s what you want. I’m feeling very jealous. I need to make the toddler and I dinner, I would much rather be dressed up and going to a drink.

Go in and enjoy!

I'd go in and have a lovely quiet drink on my own, definitely! Do some people watching, relax a bit, await your lovely hubby! Enjoy x

Of course you go in and have a drink! You won't look like a loser, although you may if you just kind of linger around outside for half an hour

Cheekyfeckery · 26/04/2019 16:46

Of course you do. Why on earth wouldn’t you?

And if it’s happy hour order yourself two cocktails.

NoSauce · 26/04/2019 16:50

Yes of course go! I actually like doing this, waiting with a cocktail for friends/DH to arrive.

I'll get over my paranoia and order a large red whilst I wait

Go! Have a drink and take a book if you're not a fan of sitting alone or do some people watching, it's nice to have some me time in that situation, you'll never look like a loser!!

Argeles · 26/04/2019 16:56

Definitely go and have a drink. Enjoy yourself!

GottenGottenGotten · 26/04/2019 16:57

Imo you will look the opposite of a loser. You'll look like a confident, independent woman. Go and enjoy!

supersop60 · 26/04/2019 17:02

Nobody bats an eyelid these days. Go in.

Ahhh enjoy lovely, I would love to get dressed up for a meal and some drinks with my DH tonight! Instead he's playing golf till early evening and I'm bathing and putting baby to bed! Have a cocktail for me

Go for it the large glass of red will soon ease any nerves

He got out of work late... I'm still on my 1st glass!
This is the longest a glass of wine has ever lasted for me
