Have you ever wanted to go out and do things but your friends are busy, as always? Have no fear because I'm here to tell you that you can do all of those things and you're the only person you need to do them! Ditch your friends/significant other for once because here are four dates you should definitely go on by yourself.

1. Go to the movies

You're seriously missing out if you've never gone to the movies at an obscure hour when there is no one else in the theater. Instead of being stuffed in a crowded room or with those friends who never stop talking during the movie, go see a movie on your own! You can laugh, cry, or scream as loud as you want. With an extra large popcorn, a blanket, and yourself, what more could you ask for?

2. Go to a concert/watch a play/attend a sporting event

Are you a One Direction fan but your friends are EDM junkies? Are you a theatre geek who's dying to see Hamilton but your friends are broke as hell? Are you a Patriots fan but your friends are in their right minds? Just go to those events by yourself! Why not?! You don't have to prevent yourself from doing the things you love just because you don't have someone to go with you.

3. Sit at home and contemplate overthrowing your country's corrupted and backward government and consider world domination while menacingly stroking your pet cat

After you've gone to the movies and went to a concert, it's time to get down to business. When you're alone, it's impossible to not ask yourself existential questions or realize that you can solely spark a revolution that would change the fate of the nation.

4. Take yourself on a food date

If you're someone who is afraid of eating in front of other people, this is the perfect solo activity for you. Order that salad with ranch instead of balsamic, order two steaks with eight steaks to go, and obnoxiously slurp your noodles into your mouth hole. It's a judgment free zone when you're on a date with yourself.
