LB55 Since I don't have many friends. Going out alone and dining alone has never been a problem for me. Used to pick up girls easier by myself instead of with company. Less pressure. But that was 13 years ago. Everyone in the PUA community likes to throw around that "social proof" b.s. Sometimes it would undermine my confidence, and sometimes it wouldn't. 3 or 4 months ago it took a bit of adjustment to go out alone again. Its no problem, but it feels like you are caught between 2 places and 2 people.
