Should I go out alone on Saturday night?

    OK so here's the deal:

    I'm alone in a new city. I've had a few beers in a local pub with the new housemate, but he cannot go out on the town and has retreated to his room.

    I'm 32 years old, in a new city which is buzzing tonight due to a festival.

    I want to meet a nice girl and think Saturday night out is my best shot at breaking singledom.

    The question is - go out on my own or do I keep my dignity and stay in watching entertaining things on the web and face more solitary confinement?

    Interested to know what people think. I'll make a decision between now and midnight.

    Of course you should go out.
    If we spent our lives waiting for other people to accompany us places, we'd go nowhere!
    Go out, have some drinks, you might meet a girl, you might make new friends. Your whole life COULD change based on tonight, so go out there and embrace it

    Straight to the nightclub. Pull.

    I can't help that people put themselves in these situations, I only provide the solution.

    North of England.

    Never heard of it.


  • Posts: 3,773 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Never heard of it.

    Trying to protect my privacy!

    It's a small city in the North West (not L'pool or M'chester)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,652 ✭✭✭keeponhurling


    Get yourself down to Wetherspoons....

    8 minutes to go and the poll is saying I should go out by a 2 to 1 majority. To be honest I kind of fancy the idea of heading out and seeing where the wind takes me. If I stay here I'm guaranteed to wake up alone

    I learnt everything I know about the North of England from Biker Grove and Two Pints of Lager.

    It's grim up North...but the lassies are champion.

    Some of the best nights out I've ever had have been on my own. :)

    Scratch that, ALL the nights out I've ever had have been on my own. :(

    Not always. I've had some fantastic nights out in the north of England.

    Right, I'm gone.

    Seems like a fair bit of negativity on Boards, but f*ck it, nothing ventured nothing gained.

    Now here's some Jimi Hendrix for those who voted Yes:

    Birmingham??

    Of course you should go out.

    It's almost certain that you'll end up being a victim of a criminal gang who harvest and sell human organs but there's a slight chance you won't.

    Go for it.

    Birmingham is neither small nor in the north west.

    I bet its blackpool

    Carlisle. Jesus no. I'd rather live in crewe or Bolton. In fact I'd prefer Burnley. That's how bad Carlisle is.

    I spent a night in Barrow once, if I'd stayed any longer I'd have had to change my name to The Forwards Man.

    I'd like to retract my no vote...didn't read the OP. Go for it...just try not to look too creepy out on your own.
