When a person (typically a guy) goes out to see a movie, or visits a theme park, or place otherwise mostly occupied by couples or friends,but does this
alone. This can cause sympathy from other people that watch them as they purchase tickets or enter the area. This is different from when a person grabs a cup of coffee, or sits in a coffee shop
alone for a few minutes, or rents a movie, or eats fast food. Masterdating involves often going to a restaurant alone, and sitting at the
table alone, while some people look and either feel bad, or think that the person is a looser, or going to see a movie alone. It is often done by older men that
may be widowed, or by people that can't get a girlfriend, or are the "40 year old
virgin" type

Masterdater behind you: 1

You (thinking)
