>>34973763I am a socially normal person (Yes, there ARE a few of us here) and I prefer going to the movies alone, precisely because it's meant to be a screen-to-me connection. Don't let imagined social pressure intimidate you
>>34973803There's a difference between spending time with someone and them just happening to be there.
