It's a simple question really. Here's my simple answer . . . I've never eaten in a restaurant by myself and I've never gone to a theater by myself. Not a big deal, I guess, unless you consider the fact that I'm very uncomfortable with the world outside. Anyhow, is there something you can't quite bring yourself to do on your own?

Hi Gtargirl, I cannot stand shopping malls, I get claustrophobic and panic so I have never gone clothes shopping on my own. I will if my elder daughter comes with me as she knows when I am coping and when I am not so I do a lot of clothes shopping online through catalogues to save me that trouble. I am ok doing the weekly food shop but getting nearer Christmas when they get busy I will even order the groceries online also. Huggles. Ellie :D

Maybe I've never been in a Concert alone. It's kind of boring when you watch concert.

I never go to the theatre alone that is the hardest thing I could ever done to myself if I try too. I never been to farthest places alone. And to a bar alone.

I spent so many years traveling about that I got so that I loathed having to eat on my own in restaurants. I once was in Gibraltar staying at a very smart hotel when I was asked by a woman on her own if she could join me. After an initial thought of "where's this going" I did and we had a very jolly evening together with no hanky panky at all. I really don't think that there is anything in fact. I have thought hard. There are things that I don't like to do on my own, go to the dentist or doctor, but I have done so. Sorry.

I never learned how to ride a bike, ice skate or drive a car, these are all things I wanted to do at one time, but not really interested anymore at this stage in my life.

I haven't enjoyed life when I am alone. I have to have someone to be with and talk to and share my life with.

I can't really think of anything that I wouldn't do alone. In the past I've eaten in restaurants alone, gone to movies alone. You don't have a bit of agoraphobia or something do you? LOL. I only ask since I've had this problem, and even when I was at my worst I preferred being going somewhere alone for some reason

Hello!
I have never been to the movies alone either. However, I could, if I wanted to. I wouldn't think that this would be a big deal. But, if there is one thing that I can't do alone, it is going to a party. I'm not a much of the party guy, because I can't let myself go. If I'm alone, and the party is from a friend, I won't be able to interact with others because everybody is in a group already. Now, if the party is unknown, then I'll just start talking to everybody. That's why I like to bring somebody, so I will not be alone in there while everybody else is having fun.
Respectfully,
Munhozmib.

I'm quite an independent type of person. I can go anywhere by myself.. but since my health condition became worse, i always have to ask my hubby to accompany me.. you know, the fact that i can't go by myself anymore, do things that i used to do before, makes me really really sad.. it's like i need to be very dependent in order to survive.. yay!

Hello my friend gtargirl Ji,
If you truely ask me, I can do nothin by myself. I need support from at least my hubby. He always tells me to do myself. I should never ask him for anything, but now it is too late at this age, even if I have to go to movie, I have to go with him. I have never done any job outside my home, we had seperated our responsibilities and he was responsible for ourside, and I am monarch of all my surveys inside my home. So inside my home, I can do anything, but never outside. may god bless You and have a graet time.

It is odd sometimes to do some things alone when the culture does not encourage it. I feel like being stared at or kind of being an idiot, though, it is, in fact, quite a natural thing to do. What makes the difference is you do it all by yourself.
For me, I never went to movie alone, never ate in a restaurant alone, never went outside in some festivals (actually, I hate to see pairs or groups in a festive mood when I am alone). It seems a shame to be alone under some circumstances. Can't figure out why!

What I cannot do on my own?
That is not an easy question for me.
Most my life I have been a loner.
I can do most everything alone.
Not that I always want to anymore.
Thinking...
Oh I got it!!!
I cannot pay my bill's alone anymore.
My BF has to start helping me out more, hahaha!!!
Fijne dag nog, tot de volgende keer.
Groetjes Margajoe.
