Going on holiday by yourself and not speaking to people is brutal lmao

Humans are social beings. Going to bar to just drink by yourself becomes really depressing after night one. Im speaking from experience

OP has a point, society dictates the dynamics for social interaction. Hence why some countries are more easy to visit and make friends as opposed to others

I'd rather than die than go to the bar alone, I encounter a lot of those guys when I'm out and they're always annoying as s***

Going to the cinema or to eat alone is peak though. more people should do the former especially

The drinking I can understand but the movies is for entertainment and u can go dolo and eating is really not necessary to do with someone else. U can take your time write read, be on your phone.

What types of bars do yall be going to lol

Whenever I move to a new neighborhood, I make it a point to go to the nearest dive bar once or twice a week have a couple beers, and just read

You don’t even need to be outgoing and trying to talk to people. Just need to start being perceived as a regular. Before you know it, it becomes easy to chime in on conversations with other regulars or the bartender. Within a month or two you know new people by name and are building friendships with the people you vibe with. Get in on a shot with someone. Let them ask you about the book you’re reading or whatever.

This doesn’t even just have to be with bars but those are the most conducive for this. Finding new people is all about exposure and just demonstrating your a well adjusted, familiar face.

and once you’re a regular somewhere, if you don’t show up for a couple weeks, there’s bound to be someone that says “haven’t seen you in a while” when you go in next. That’s another opportunity for conversation and getting to know people. It’s really not difficult

How do you think us monkeys conquered the earth. Wasn't through isolating ourselves. You are deeply troubled and disfunctional.

Went to bar with my friends and when I was getting drinks saw this middle age guy down in the dumps alone and asked him what’s up and his girl broke up with him

Told the people I was with and we sat at the bar and had some drinks with him to keep him company.

Went to another bar with my girl another time and saw this objectively attractive guy alone by himself doing his thing and he was just chatting with the bartender and talking to people who ever came up to him. It’s really not that deep

Now one thing I won’t ever do alone again is go to a concert its fine once you get in and get to vibe with people with similar taste but sitting in line by yourself and waiting for doors to open will always be a lil awkward tbh especially when ppl are already cliqued up
