I have been bored and lonely all weekend and decided to get out this morning and go see a movie, this was the first time I have ever gone to a movie by myself and it was very depressing. The whole theater was packed with couples and it made me feel so alone. I don't know if I could ever do it again.

Anyone else been through this?

" I don't know. The weekend Ironman came out my STBX was off with the kids and the OM. I really wanted to see the movie and I thought it was good so I didn't notice much of the other people. Afterwards I went to a furniture store nearby and looked around to get an idea of what it's going to cost me to furnish my new place.

That was one time. Other times I go to the movies with buds or with my kids. "

" I wish they had a place locally that we could sign up to go to a movie with another person that is alone. I have gone out to dinner by myself but not a movie .. Guess I should just do it and the mystery would leave.. Glad that you got out there . I am going to try and do this for myself soon, but I am not looking forward to it.. Kimmee "

" See, this is what kills me -- there are cleraly many of us out here who would love to ahve someone to go to a movie with -- but we can't find each other in our own towns! I would have gladly gone to the movies with you, just to have someone to keep me company and maybe comment on the movie to afterward. (Assuming, of course, that you are not too annoying to be around, lol.) I don't go lots of places I might otherwise go cuz I am afraid I will get lonely in a crowd. But, hey, good for you for trying it out! I say try it again sometime! Maybe you needed to see a better movie, lol. "

" Have had enough courage to try it yet. I can go out to dinner alone--that doesn't seem to bother me, but I always associate going to the movies as a date type activity.

Just have to change my way of thinking. "
