You know what I mean, you find yourself alone... you're hungry... there is nobody around... so you go to town and find a nice restaurant. How much will you spend on yourself?

2. Between 7$ and $13
I live alone and have no significant other so I eat out all the time by myself. I'm pretty economical about it.

3. Maximum..
about $15 dollars. But this only happens in weird circumstances, like when my partner goes outta town to visit family & I find myself alone. This happens I'd guess maybe twice a year. I end-up going to this place here in Austin called Chinatown; they have my favorite dish in the world: sizzling honey pepper steak. I can't describe it. Itso good, it's unreal.

7. $15 dollars unless it's sushi..
then, it's no holds barred. I love to go eat by myself ( and go to movies, museums, and just about everything else by myself). No reason to let a lack of companionship keep me from enjoying myself, I say. Of course, now I always have companionship, but sometimes still ask if I can go to a movie all by myself. Comforting in some weird way, I guess.

8. I used to not do stuff, because I couldn't find people to do it with.

After a while I figured I would never get to do anything like that, so I do tons of stuff by myself. Hike, travel, library, museums...Luckily I have a partner who likes the same things I do so we do a lot of stuff together.
