shopping by myself?


Question Posted Friday May 20 2011, 7:07 pm

I am a teenage girl who obviously loves shopping :) But the thing is, I don't have anyone to go shopping with. My mom lives very far away. I don't really have many girl friends. The girl friends I do have, well it would be awkward to go shopping with them since I don't know them very well and we barely hang out outside of school. I haven't really gone shopping and bought something since a year ago. I have gone shopping though with my boyfriend.. but I always come home empty handed. I just always feel bad dragging him with me to go shopping for clothes. Since I don't have anyone to really go shopping with... should i just go shopping alone? I've never shopped alone before, it sounds scary. I don't want to look like a loner. When I'm in the mall, I see girls my age who are always with a group of friends. I just don't want people to see me and be like "oh she's alone. sad."

what should I do??

Stop allowing others to shape your life. If what you gotta do is shop alone then you do what you gotta do. Don't define yourself by the herd.

Just remember that the people you see at the mall now you are unlikely to ever see again once you graduate high school since everyone scatters to the four winds then. So stop being so self conscious. You know who you are. Revel in it and enjoy life as you see fit.

honestly, there's nothing wrong with shopping by yourself. i do it all the time. trust me, there's nothing to worry about, believe it or not, no one's looking at you or saying anything about you being alone. to be honest, no one really cares who you're with when you're shopping! haha. i love going shopping by myself because i don't have to rush and can take my time trying outfits on. you don't feel guilty dragging people along and it's actually nice to give yourself some "me" time. try it and you'll realize it's very refreshing.
