Showing Up Alone or With Friends

Let’s say you are going to meet up with someone you used to know. He invites you out and says he will be at the bar with a few friends. Problem is, do you go alone or bring someone along with you?

For me, it depends on how well I know (or used to know) the person. If I’m meeting someone for the first time, you can be sure I won’t be showing up there by myself.

If you are nervous about going out, your best bet is to bring a friend with you. Not only will this make you feel more comfortable, you’ll also have an excuse if you feel like leaving early…you can just tell him your friend wants to go.

If I do end up going alone, I always call the person on the phone once I’m outside of the place and make them meet me outside. That way I don’t have to walk in alone and we can get the formalities out of the way while still outside.

What about you? Do you bring a friend with you or are you brave enough to do it alone?
