Is it considered a bit 'sad' if a lady goes to a pub on her own, say if she was waiting for someone? Or even just fancied a drink but no one else she knew did!?

No it's not sad we are all independant and can do whatever we want nobody would even notice these days. Its all about confidence.
not at all!!
pubs are social places, open to anyone, anytime.

i think that idea stems from the days that pubs were male dominated and it was a rare sight to see a woman in one.

those days are long gone.
I find it embarassing going alone but that's because I regard drinking as a social passtime, not an individual sport.
Can only agree with the above postings, mind you there are still plenty of narrow minded men around who think your only going there for another thing, and i'm not on about drinking!!?

The amount of times i've been with mates who have noticed a women come into a pub on her own, then they start nudging each other as if they have a right to go and chat her up or start staring at her is no ones business, it must be quite intimidating at times for women to go into certain pubs/clubs, but the ''confidence factor'' and ''speaking your mind'' are two ingredients to have if your not to feel intimidated, as for a bit ''sad''. not at all, you go where you want anytime you feel like it
Any woman going to a pub on her own is likely to be hit on, but why the hell shouldn't you, its a free country ( well nearly), just be careful how much you drink, not very safe for a lone woman to be wandering home alone; or get a cab!!
It shows your confidence imo.

Fork what people think.

Be safe.
not at all. I will quite cheerfully await someone's arrival in a pub on my own. Warmer than sitting outside waiting for them.,
Ditto nuoyg
I quite often do that! I would just go to my local, or the pub round the corner from work on a friday, and read a book for a couple hours! Why should you confine yourself to your house just because you have noone to go with you that day? I agree that you become an easy "target" for annoying men, but I find that silence and an evil stare does the trick! lol they might think I'm the biatch from hell, but at least I can drink my pint in peace! lol
