Are you comfortable eating at a restauraunt by yourself on a friday night?

Question

Does anyone here think that people will think you are a loser because you have no friends and have to eat alone?

Answer 1

When you're by yourself it's fun to sit at the bar and order your dinner. That way you can meet some people while you eat and won't feel so alone...

Answer 2

to be honest, only if i was stuck on my own and extremely hungry, would i be seen eating on my own... other than that, you'll never see me eating on my own. its better being with someone anyways; you get to talk, its more comfortable... time passes by even faster... i dont know, thats just me

and what about yourself???

Answer 3

Yes, I have before. There are times when you just want solititude and enjoy your meal.

However, the majority of the time I prefer the company of my wife. It is an enjoyable experience if you are with a friend, relative, or spouse. The dining experience is better when you have good company to talk and laugh with.

Answer 4

Yea, that's the best way to meet new people! Sit at the bar top and start a conversation with the people sitting next to you! Ya gotta have confidence!

Answer 5

it's awkward but i've done it before...outside the usa.

Answer 6

look losers got to eat to. joking. look no biggy i do all the time. who cares what people think. i would go to any restraunt and eat by myself at anyhour of the day/night it was open on anyday. i really wouldn't care.

Answer 7

If on vacation I would do it with no problem.  If at home I would probably prefer take-out or staying at home.

Answer 8

I do lots of business traveling and Friday night out alone is common. I find that if you go to the least expensive place you can find you will find someone to chat with and enjoy a meal. Back packer hotels and so on. I prefer company when eating at a restaurant.

Answer 9

I would try it... I never have... But I will have to try it...

Answer 10

When I see people sitting eating by themselves for dinner I feel sorry for them... Everyone needs friends!

Answer 11

Sure! Single people get hungry too!

Answer 12

Fersure!

Answer 13

ya i do but i'd rather be on a date or out with my friends.

Answer 14

yea, but i like to go somewhere slow... if i'm alone, i want to be alone and enjoy it until next time... like... haha i dont want to see a big crowd just goofing around and having fun.. i'd go somewhere kinda quiet.. a small diner or something

and definately not somewhere fancy or anything..

Answer 15

Oh ya. All the s**y girls are out partying and I can shake my bootay! I love to pop lock and drop it!

Answer 16

personally no some people might be comfortable. i think it would be easier for guys than girls.

Answer 17

I would be fine eating by myself.  Would I worry about others thinking I was a loser, I could care less.  It just proves  I am comfortable enough with myself to not worry about whether or not others thought I was a loser.

Answer 18

yes it would be nice to be alone and think and have great food

Answer 19

yep.  I am married and I still dine by myself.  My hubby does not like chinese food and I LOVE it...so I go aone and I could care less.  People spend way to much of their life worrying about what people think of them....if you can get past that...life is  a lot more enjoyable.

Answer 20

no I just traveled alone and hated it.  I felt fine eating at the bar but I woudln't want to sit at a table alone

Answer 21

nope i dont even go out at night at all on the weekends unless i actually have something to do w/ other people

Answer 22

I kinda am I feel alone but then I also feel happy that I can come and eat by myself and that I have some time to do things that I want to do

Answer 23

i have no problem with that.  don't get me wrong, i'd love to be with friends or family.....but being alone doesn't bother me.

Answer 24

Yeah, ya never know, you might get lucky.

Answer 25

Yeah why not?

Answer 26

The only thing I do alone is go shopping.

I dont go out to eat or go to the movies alone....

Not that there anything wrong with it but um

I guess one would look lonely....

My friends do it all the time..(go to the movies alone)

Answer 27

I have no problem with doing things by myself. I don't think I'm a loser I enjoy my own company. If it's what you want who cares what anyone else thinks? I certainly dont

Answer 28

oh lord no, well if i was old and had a really good book i just had to read, but, no i wouldnt.

Answer 29

Yes.....I don't mind at all ,  

all the best

Answer 30

Not comfortable, no. If I have no Friday night plans, I just stay home. I go to movies alone, though.

Answer 31
