I went to my first event alone and scared(my ride kicked me out of the car!)But I was welcomed in and felt like I was part of the group within a short time. Steve, I am not sure how to answer you as to going it alone as most of us come alone as well...try it and you may find as fun as I do. Just go with the mindset that this is a thing to get out and meet people you usually wouldn't... I have found a group that is interesting and can get out with. Perhaps my future is with one of those other singles...but in the meantime I am loving the adventure of being single! So come on out...perhaps you will see me there :)
