Going It Alone

August 15, 2006

As of late I’ve wanted to get out and do more things, like check out a play, hit the occasional jazz spot downtown, check out a comedy show and so on and so forth, but that hasn’t always been an achievable goal especially when you don’t want to roll alone.
You see, most of my friends have a kid(s) or are married. So they can’t do the spur of the moment plans or even with a week notice plan. So because I don’t like going out alone I am stuck. I’ve always been told that women should go out alone. I’ve been told that her chances of being taken advantage of are greater than if she was with a crew. On the flip side a woman’s chances of meeting a guy drastically drop if she is with a crew, something about the laws of averages and the approaching guy choosing the wrong woman so the whole crew is off guards then.
Well despite that little fact I am still thinking about venturing out alone. Not to seem like easy prey but maybe to the occasional play or comedy show. At the salon where I go this very topic came up and I found quite a few women went our by themselves. My first adventure will be this new sports bar around the corner from my house. Now I need to pick a day…
