On the other hand, I'm autistic and have no frame of reference for some of the things I want to do. How can I just show somewhere alone without knowing the social norms?

I go to restaurants, concerts and other shit by myself all the time. I go some Sporting events by myself, even out of town. In fact, I'm going to take a nostalgia road trip and watch an indoor soccer match.

It is normal. Just do it. People who have an issue with this are creating their own problems. It's a YOU problem.

I've been going out alone to all kinds of places for years. Nobody blinks an eye.

One time I went alone to a restaurant on Valentine's Day and somebody paid for my meal. I wasn't even lonely.

There’s nothing stopping you from asking another adult from taking a picture of you without your phone held up in the middle of it like a caveman brandishing the first burning branch.

Eh, went to my first concert by myself. Lost my spot when I had to pee and got to watch my favorite band from side stage.

They aren't asking for permission. They are asking for attention.

I want to go to the comfy movies but all the seating is loveseat couches. I might have to share that with a stranger. So anyways I heard WoW is good again?

The ones I go to have armrests that fold down. No need to share with others.

Ooh so I can pretend they don't exist. I like that.
