Cinema alone

[Fireonbutfrozen]

Do you ever do it?

I have a couple of times and like it, but always feel a bit weird going in. Also-this is crazy, do you ever feel a bit scared on your own? Ive been in before when I was the only one in there, does that leave you vulnerable?

Planning to go tomorrow and sneak some treats in my bag from the shop, i’m thinking Revels or Minstrels and some Monster munch
What would you take?

Why not?

Oooh, hadn't seen this advertised. Looks good.

Why on earth not? Do you do anything else alone?

On the rare occasion I manage to get a couple of hours alone I LOVE going to the cinema.

I managed to see a horror film a few months back, got myself all settled with my irn bru and revels, enjoying just sitting alone without a small human hanging off me, and then a lady from further down the row came over and invited me to sit with her and her boyfriend so I wasn't alone 🤣 that's the only time anything like that has ever happened though.

I'm hoping I can go during the day next week to see something as well.

When I was working overseas and single, I went to the cinema solo a lot.

I love it and been a few times, sometimes for a morning showing with a pastry and a coffee and sometimes in the evening with a bag of revels and decaf coffee or cheese savouries and a bottle of fruit cider! Take my massive scarf as a blanket.

I will say though OP I know what you mean feeling a little vulnerable I tend to go on the back row so that no one is behind me.

Why not? I go to the cinema, theatre and eat out alone. I am even going on holiday alone in June because I want a week away from everyone. Are you not happy to be in your own company?

I'm a horror fan, but I have only one friend who also enjoys horror. So I frequently see horror films alone. 👻

My husband does this at least once a month! I'm not so into films but I do go to the theatre by myself fairly often. Never even thought that people might find it odd!

Constantly on my own it's my fave thing. I actually went last weekend with three others and I hated it I don't know why 😂

I go once a week on my own and have for 11 years.

Several times a year when there's films I want to see. My partner isnt keen on cinema.

DHs away and I was thinking of going to see Housemaid alone, he probably wouldn't like it anyway

It is good and so is the book.

Once there was just one other person in a screening and we had booked seats two seats apart which was a bit weird so I budged down a bit.

Brought a mini M&S cheesecake last time.
Luckily I had a little spoon in my bag, he he…

I LOVE the cinema on my own. I need to make the effort to do it more.

I actually prefer it to going with someone. I can eat all the way through without embarrassment and cry as much as I like. If I love or hate the movie I don't have to hear someone else dissect it afterwards.

You don’t need to sneak them on you know! You can take your own food into the cinema as long as it’s nothing hot 🤗

I love going for something to eat myself then a solo trip to the cinema. Bliss!

Absolutely love it Odeon Luxe wine reclining seats etc. Everyman hellooooo

I love the cinema alone. Depending on the timing I take a glass of wine in my water bottle and relax.

Peanut M&M's and a cup of tea.

I go alone all the time - it was very daunting the first time, I went to see 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part One' and I just remember also finding it really awkward. I also thought everyone was looking at me and wondering why I didn't have any friends but obviously no one was thinking that 😂

It doesn't feel awkward anymore, I love going there and also the theatre alone.

Watched 'The Housemaid' with my Mum - we both loved it. Some minor changes from the book and I hadn't been keen on the cast announcement but loved the film!

The more you go the less awkward and scary it feels 😊

Loads. People who can’t do things alone are the weird ones.

I go all the time by myself. Why would you be scared? I really don’t understand women who can’t do things on their own.
