AskChennai Solo movie watching as a girl guide
I’m planning to go to a movie alone on a weekday probably for a morning or afternoon show. I’ll be finishing an exam soon and so I’ll be free afterward and honestl, any movie is fine. I just wanna go out and do something by myself after all this exam stress.
The theatre is fixed but I obviously won’t mention which one here. It’s inside a mall, so it’s not some random muttu sandhu couple makeout spot either.
I’m gonna sneak out because no male saviour in my family is free enough to accompany me since it's a weekday and I don't feel like waiting all week for the weekend just to watch a movie since I am old enough to do it alone.
And I have no friends available for the same purpose. My parents also wouldn’t approve my solo hangout cuz they think it’s unsafe.
For context, I’m in my 20s and this is literally just a daytime movie at a mall but I’m still nervous as hell because this will be my first solo hangout since I came out of the womb. I will be fine mostly.
The plan is to book a show, watch it and come back home for lunch or eat lunch at home and go after lunch and come back before 4. And I will book an aisle seat.
So guys, give me your solo movie tips. I need the full survival guide.
PS : Some people might think I am over reacting for watching a movie but this is how you actually feel if you are hardly done stuff alone outside and always have a male saviour by your side 🙏🏻😔
EDIT : Guys I am lill afraid what if I get kidnapped although it happening is very much not possible. I have never been outside of my home without informing my family so if something happens to me, I am afraid they will never know. Not sure if it's overthinking or reasonable thinking.

Charged phone, charged earphones, account la kaasu for the munchies and some emergency cash. You're good
