- wear something really cute. you gotta have some confidence going by yourself. if people look at you, its cause you look good. not cause you are sitting alone in a movie theater.
- make it dinner and a movie. if you are bold enough to not only sneak a snack in, but sneak an entire meal into the movie, you are definitely bold enough to go see it with out anyone else. plus it will give you something to do while the "screen vision" is playing.
- don't get there too early. its not like you have to look for more than one seat. and the same rules apply as going to any other social event. if you get there early people are going to think you've been waiting all day to see this, and not that you just casual fit it into your busy schedule. be cool.
- find a small row of three and sit directly in the middle. before the movie starts people will think you are meeting someone. and when the movie starts you get a whole row to yourself. and if someone does sit next to you, then they are seeing it alone too. good chance to make a new friend or to at least look like you came with someone.
- and lastly, if you are going to see a movie by yourself, make sure its worth it. see something like The Dark Knight. totally and completely worth it.
i really am going to miss everyone a lot. and it feel likes its coming up so soon. but i am thrilled. soooooooo excited. can you believe it? can you?
i really can't.

here's the way i look at seeing movies alone.
1. either i have been sitting around all day and am bored and want to get out of the house - so i go see a movie, or, there is a movie i really want to see and no one else wants to see it or is available to go (i.e. there will be blood).
2. i too head for the 3 seat rows. less likely of having an awkward encounter.
3. even when you go with friends it's not like you are talking to them in the theatre anyway. so it's not much different.
4. some movies are better to see alone (i.e. the passion of the christ).
