to go out to a nice pub to eat on my own?

[cheesecadet]

I'm single, never get invited anywhere by friends, so I thought what the hell!

Would it look weird?

Why would it look weird?

Because people might think 'what a loner!'

But I am!

Nope. I do it all the time. It's fab

No I've done it on business trips, I just take a book or something for in between courses, relax and enjoy.

I savour the food and haven't got two fucks to give what the other diners are thinking .....

Do it! Nobody else would care, they would probably be envious!

No. I went to Boston and cape cod by myself for 2 weeks in 2012 as I was single and wanted to go but none of my friends had enough holiday left. Are out by myself every night. Sometimes felt a bit awks but glad I did it as am a real foodie and would’ve missed out on some wonderful meals otherwise

Do it! Nobody will notice you.

@NiceLegsShameAboutTheFace really?!! I like you!

I just wondered if people do it, and clearly they do. Was thinking of a pint and nice meal and back home. Might even meet someone!!

It's fine! I've done it. But you say you haven't been invited anywhere. Maybe people who like you have a similar mindset so also try asking a friend along?

People do it all the time. Do you remember seeing anyone eating alone and thinking they are a loser? I bet the answer is no. This is the same amount of fucks people will give about you eating alone. None.

All my friends are single and aren't interested in meeting up away from their partners!

No I often ear by myself! Nothing wrong with it. Enjoy!!

That's a shame nobody would notice me, can't have it both ways I suppose!

😂 If you want to be noticed, may I recommend some noticeable attire? You would be noticed but really not for dining alone bit. Win win😂

@cheesecadet

Ah, people will notice you so don't worry about that – you're not invisible – but only if there's any good to come out of the noticing.

What I'm trying to say is that yes: you might meet someone and that might be cool. But, if not – on this occasion – then you've had a fab meal and a lovely time with you

Enjoy.

I'm in Manchester if you are in that area. I'll join ya!

I do this all the time! The papers, wine and a nice meal - heaven.

I went to work dressed pretty much like that last week. It was fun and the job still got done

Go for it! I do it quite often, I just take a good book on my Kindle, a few glasses of wine and a nice meal. It's lovely.

Absolutely not! I broke up with a boyfriend many years ago and went and stayed in Edinburgh on my own for a week. Went out for dinner every night on my own it was lovely. I took a book and my iPod. Lovely.

I really want something like that now!

I do this now and again and I absolutely love it. Of course do it op!

I love eating out on my own! Only ever get to do it at when I’m away with work though which sadly won’t be happening for quite some time.
