How to Take Yourself Out on a Date

If you find yourself on Friday night with no plans and no one is calling you back, don't worry. You can have a super fun night all by yourself and not even feel lonely.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

1. Since eating out at a restaurant alone can be pretty boring, decide on a simple meal you enjoy cooking and eat at home.
2. After buying the ingredients, put on your favorite CD or music mix and sing along out loud. Dancing is also encouraged.
3. Set the table nicely for yourself. Use a placemat, candles and a good napkin. This will make your meal feel special.
4. After you have finished eating and doing your dishes, check out the movie listing. The nicest thing about going to the movies alone is that you avoid a late-running friend or compromising on a movie to see.
5. After you have selected a movie, make your way to the theater. If you are on the subway or bus, read a magazine or book you enjoy. If you are walking or in your car, keep playing your favorite music.
6. At the movie theater, indulge yourself with a treat for dessert. Don't worry about the money or calories. This night is all about you.
7. When you return home from the movies, indulge in some pampering. Draw a hot bath, make some delicious tea and crack open a comic book or romance novel. Do whatever will entertain you and keep you relaxed.
8. Put yourself to bed. Try falling asleep to relaxing music or nature sounds.

Tips & Warnings

• Concentrate on making yourself feel good, and not that you are alone.
