i thought i would be alone too, but i just did a mass text to a bunch of people and saw what everyone was up to. i found a few friends were going bar hopping. although apprehensive at first, i decided to meet them up by myself.
being new to the city, i was pretty scared to drive alone. finding parking was a pain, and i was really close to driving back home and just be by myself. the time was getting late too but i thought i made it this far, i might as well give it a shot. walking to the bar was uncomfortable as i saw everyone with their groups having a good time, but when i met my friend's group it was a great night after.
i guess the reason im sharing this is that you dont have to be lonely if you dont want to. just throw things out there and if nothing bites at least you tried. i hope this helps...
