MarshallMathers 5 Posted July 17, 2015 I just had my friend cancel on me at the last second, so I'm going tomorrow on my own :/ Anyone been to events like this on their own? If so, what's it like? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wrong Name 4,229 Posted July 17, 2015 (edited) Much easier by myself! I have so much to do that it's better without my mate who comes with me and I get more done. (If you read this dude, you know it's true!) Edited July 17, 2015 by Wrong Name Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mckee74 145 Posted July 17, 2015 I go to events like this on my own. Find it easy to meet the guests I want to see as I don't have to worry about someone queuing up for something they have no interest in. Would be nice to have someone with me to be my official photographer though! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheHorrorFreak 33 Posted July 17, 2015 It's much easier going alone in my opinion. It's very easy to get lost so you'd probably spend more time looking for your mate rather than enjoying yourself haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
danalar 11 Posted July 17, 2015 I'm going alone. Admittedly I'm nervous, but I'm sure I'll meet plenty of new people who have the same interests as I do! (I think that adds to the fun!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarshallMathers 5 Posted July 17, 2015 Woo! So im not the only one I hope I meet you guys! I'll probably be the only guy wearing a Brock Lesnar shirt lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
discodiva 147 Posted July 17, 2015 Much easier by myself! I have so much to do that it's better without my mate who comes with me and I get more done. (If you read this dude, you know it's true!) I'm exactly the same...I jump with joy when Hubby says he doesn't want to come.. I MUCH prefer to do everything on my own, on my own terms and interact with whom I choose to Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
enchantedsocks 5 Posted July 17, 2015 I'm on my own too. Rather like it that way. Found it rather nice today- got to browse a few stalls, get an autograph or two, watch some talks and all at my own pace. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Firecracker 97 Posted July 17, 2015 I usually go with my friend, but we're apart enough with photos. I tend to stay with her while she's queueing for photos/autos (if I'm not busy) just so we see more of each other - and then I duck out as she goes into the photo. Today I was with a different friend, who was doing her first convention. We were apart a bit, but mostly together. Both are nice - it's good to have someone to chat to while you wait, but time alone is good too :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
btvsfan 19 Posted July 18, 2015 I'll be alone today too - always make me anxious!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fastandloud 67 Posted July 18, 2015 Much better going as a lone ranger. Everything is much easier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zonky 207 Posted July 18, 2015 Gone it alone again this year,its absolutely fine, going to sound so antisocial but I quite like being alone I get to do so much more and know when I'm tired and need to stop etc..... Currently sitting alone drinking into a pint of cidre in my hotel mind you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StuartG2198 2,028 Posted July 18, 2015 I've always gone it alone quite enjoy it that way Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aearin 65 Posted July 18, 2015 Went with a friend but I was just saying it would be not much different on my own. Both want to see different guests etc, not much chance for chatting when your determined to get somewhere Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tony1975 602 Posted July 19, 2015 I went with my mate yesterday but it wasn't much different to when I went on my own to Earls Court last year. With how busy it is and us wanting to do different things we soon went our separate ways and met back up when we were ready to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stormtrooper1976 4 Posted July 19, 2015 I enjoy going on my own because I can do what I want and see who I want (actors etc) find it easyer and can get a lot more done and interact with the cosplayers and stall holders... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
