For some reason, this is a lot easier to do (drink solo at bar) while out of town on a business trip.
So just act like your always from out of town.

you can get over the feeling that people might think you've stood up by defiantly...

i'd rather be solo at a bar than drinking at home alone. usually end up talking to strangers at the bar – much less chance of strangers showing up in my living room.
also very hard to pass up $1.50 drafts at the bar across the street from my apartment.
- or like my neighbor, get hit by a car walking home from the bar across the streettimeless

So heres what I'm taking from this:
Feeling curious:
It's perfectly fine and encourages things to happenFeeling sad:
Pathetic and deserving of rebuke.Feeling bored:
Sensible way to pass the time.Also, I hear it's less deserving of shame from people who actually do this than people who have less experience soloing the bar, so I'm going to assume there is barrier to entry here and it involves how you pull off your solo drinking. Have to appear like you know what you are doing.
- Also, quantity seems to figure. 2-3 = ok.. peepants mc drunk = sadcannonball1978

Perfectly acceptable. Anytime. Unless when you say bar you mean gay club. And by Staurday you mean honeymoon.

I have had some really great experiences going to bars alone in my youth. Its a great thing to do. Its not even something that deserves to even be questioned, unless, as was said on the previous page, you yourself feel a little sad about it. But if you cool, you cool.

This can be great times especially in strange cities. Can also be real boring... or dangerous if you get too loaded and meet the wrong people.
