There are small things a woman should do on her own without being afraid. Your friends and family won’t always be around, so you’ll have to enter situations on your lonesome. There’s nothing wrong with being by yourself. Once you realize that you don’t always have to be surrounded by a crowd, you won’t be nervous to do the things a woman should do on her own every once in a while.

1. Chow down
No-one ever wants to go out to eat alone, but there’s nothing wrong with it. If you’re living off fast food and Ramen, you need a real meal. Why not go out to your favorite restaurant? Some people are nervous to ask for a table for one, but the waiter is used to the request. One of the things a woman should do on her own every once in a while is eat. You need food to survive. Eating by yourself isn’t as uncommon as you think it is.
2. Watch the Big Screen
You watch television alone, don’t you? So what’s stopping you from going out to watch a movie by yourself? If there’s a film that you’re dying to see, but your friends are all busy, you shouldn’t deprive yourself of the experience. You shouldn’t be talking during a movie, anyway. There’s no reason why you should wait for a movie to be released on Netflix instead of heading to the theater.
***
Watching a movie on the big screen can be a fun and immersive experience, especially if you go alone. It gives you the opportunity to fully focus on the film without any distractions or interruptions from friends. Plus, going to the theater alone can also be a great way to treat yourself and have some much-needed alone time. According to a study by the University of Rochester, people who engage in activities alone tend to be more creative and self-reflective. So why not take advantage of this and catch that movie you've been wanting to see? Plus, with the rise of streaming services, the movie theater experience is becoming rarer, making it a unique experience to have on your own.
3. Sing along
Concerts are the most fun when you’re with a group of people who share your love for the band. But what if your friends all have different taste? Going to a concert alone isn’t as horrible as it might seem. Once you get there, you’ll meet dozens of people with the same interests. You won’t be arriving at the venue with a friend, but you’ll be leaving with a few new ones.
4. Dance the Night Away
It can be scary to arrive at a party without a friend, however, you can still go and enjoy yourself. Hit the dance floor, eat some snacks, and chat with others. If you feel uncomfortable at any point, you can always leave. There’s nothing forcing you to stay. You might as well go for the experience, and decide whether or not you’d like to stay.
Sunshine and blue skies bring positivity and joy and it's important for every woman to take full advantage of it. Even when stuck indoors, it's still possible to enjoy some good vibes. Check out these unique tips on how to make the most of the weather right at your home. Let's celebrate every beautiful day, no matter where we are.
5. Take a Trip
If you’ve always dreamt of visiting France, save up your money and go. Your friends might not have enough money to tag along, but that doesn’t mean that you should stay home. You should experience as much as you can. As long as you think you’re capable of handling a trip to a foreign country, you shouldn’t hesitate to leave. You’ll have the time of your life, with or without a travel partner.

6. Amuse Yourself
If no one wants to try out the highest, fastest roller coaster in the state, you can do it alone. It would be fun to go to an amusement park with a group of friends, but if they refuse to accompany you, don’t let that stop your adventure. If you want to do something, do it. You don’t need to be around others in order to have a great time. Go have fun, and then tell your friends what they missed.
7. Get Fit
Some people are too shy to go to the gym alone, however, millions of people do it every single day. You don’t have to walk into the building with a friend. You’re there to exercise, after all. Don’t skip a day of working out just because your friend is skipping. You can do it alone.
You’re a strong, independent woman who doesn’t need anyone by her side. Anything you want to do, you can do alone. Is there a certain place that you’re scared of going to by yourself?

Melissa: Great read! I took a month trip on my own a few years back, It was one of my best experiences as it helped me find who I was
macy: This is a very good advise. I've always wanted to be emotionally independent. I've done most of the list except travelling alone abroad. Thats on my list next year. Im glad I practiced this a long time ago. Otherwise, I wouldnt have the courage to push for my dreams. First step is the hardest esp when you're doing it alone. When you dont have anyone in your circle to support your passion. You only have yourself to rely on. If you're always dependent on other people's opinion or company, you'll never be truly happy. You dont want to be haunted by what ifs and if onlys on your deathbed. You need to get moving while you are still young and able.
Splashhhh: I wanna go for trip all by my self
Ayla: Movie alone? That sounds crazy?!
Kari: Just what I needed to read! Today I made the choice to register for the upcoming Spartan Race (a 5k obstacle course race) in my state. No one had the money for it to do it with me. But I signed up anyways! Ready to kill it on my own :) It's actually liberating that I found the confidence in myself to sign up for something so extreme and important to do by myself
Frances: Travelling to other countries all alone is very liberating, ladies! Of course, you have to choose countries that are friendly to solo women travellers, get to know about the country's culture (if possible, even the language) before going there, and always let someone back home know where you are. Trust me, once you try exploring the world on your own, you will never be the same again.
Magali: It's crazy how people can't be alone or are to afraid, girls at my school can't seem to sit at a table alone without having a panic attack. Some people sacrifice happiness just to not be alone.
Emily: isn't it funny, the only one of these I've done without a hesitation is to go abroad! I have watched a movie alone. It was French and had the cinema to myself! But the others would daunt me!
Frances: I've done all of this , and even more :) some people I know find me weird, a risk-taker or even anti-social because of this. But for me, I find it very liberating and relaxing to go out on my own.
