So I just wanna get you’re ladies opinion, so my friend was supposed to go with me to a bar to go see some live new upcoming artist in Denver that I got invited to she canceled on me and it’s this Friday and it’s at bar red in Denver and I feel so weird going alone. It’s the first time I’ve had like a night off where I’m not. I don’t have my kids with me. My mom was so lovely enough to have the kids spend the night with her so I have no kids to have to. You know put to bed get on a routine and it’s like I don’t know what to do with myself I wanna go, but it’s like I feel like I’m like can’t go by myself and it’s like how do you ladies handle you know when you have a long time away from your kids do you like being by yourself and going to go do something that’s just for you or would you rather go out with friends and have somebody to talk to so you don’t just feel lonely? What do you guys think?

Girl, I totally get this. It’s already hard for me to do a date night with my partner, and he’s not my daughter’s dad. Her dad has actually never spent a whole night with her — no shade to him! So even leaving her with my mom overnight makes me feel guilty to do that to my mom. Going out with friends usually also feels way harder. If I were you and couldn’t sell the ticket, I think I’d go for a little while and see if I could still have some fun! Then you can always leave early and come back to spend the rest of the night with your mom and the kids. :)

I definitely get how hard and weird it came be when you first begin to do things alone. I feel like with time you will get more out of your head and enjoy it and feel confident enough but the first step is to definitely at least give it a shot.
Personal experience Denver can be very fun and the bars are always a vibe and good time so I’d say go for it and worst comes to worst you can always just leave if you’re not liking the vibe by yourself.
