Is there anything we don’t Google? We do it for research, out of curiosity, to learn more about actors or something we heard while watching TV, during conversations with friends, to find the best taco joint, best place to buy something, and so forth.
This is even more true when something pops into our heads about our health, activities, concerns, or simple randomness, including asking Google if doing certain things by ourselves, solo, is weird.

According to the Imgur website, an American online image-sharing and image-hosting service that focuses on social gossip and internet trends, we are quite worried about how it looks to do certain activities that usually involve at least two people.
IS IT WEIRD TO GO TO A BAR ALONE
What are your thoughts on this? If it’s a Friday or Saturday night and you’re hanging out at a crowded bar by yourself late at night, then yes, personally, that seems super creepy.
In the early evening, grabbing a drink after a long day doesn’t feel that weird. It also depends on where you are or why. Are you on a business trip and grabbing a bite, ordering take-out, or do you know the owner?

IS IT WEIRD TO GO TO A CONCERT BY YOURSELF
Anyone who goes to a concert alone will make new friends before the night ends. Absolutely go for it, especially if you love the band or artist but don’t have anyone to go with. It may depend on the show, though.
Google is all about it, too.

IS IT WEIRD TO EAT AT A RESTAURANT ALONE
If you are hungry and don’t feel like grabbing take-out, then go for it.

Google agrees and emphasizes that it’s actually become very normal and even preferable for many.
