You are a fucking idiot. Being a regular is the fucking best. In the last city I lived in, I got into the habit of only ever ordering the daily special at a restaurant. It was a different small appetizer, small salad, and main dish every day. As soon as I walked in the door i could hear them pouring me a pitcher of water (they didn't normally serve pitchers to guests but I drank enough that it was easier) and shortly after sitting down they'd bring me a salad. I didn't even have to place an order.
Man, I really miss that.

[Anonymous No.13161036]

It's the opposite for me. I usually find some non fast food joint that doesn't look like crap whenever I move. The first week of not really knowing about the restaurant and not feeling comfortable sucks, but by then the staff start recognizing you. My best experience has to have been walking into the place when it had a bunch of customers- only to discover they had kept my spot open. I didn't even have to order- the water just shot some finger guns at me and asked if it was the usual. Only needing to nod to get your food is the fucking best.

This.
If it's a restaurant they usually give you extra portions or the best cuts of meat.
If you're a regular in the bar you usually either get heavy discounts or everything you order comes double/triple shot at no extra cost, not to mention random free drinks and free tequila shots.
t.a regular in a bar that ended up becoming a bartender there for a year, totally worth it for the mountains of free drinks and being drunk every shift.

I like the better service and friendliness from being a regular but I get really uncomfortable when people start talking about themselves or ask about my life. Why can't it just be a knowing nod and appreciation showed through actions? If I'm a regular that means I like the food. It doesn't have anything to do with the people, even though I clearly respect their craft and trust their consistency. I want it to be a professional relationship.

I get why normalfags like smalltalk and stuff and I can empathize but really I do end up going to a place I like less when they get too familiar with me. I don't want to necessarily I kind of feel bad about it, since I can't blame the restaurant staff for treating me the same as everybody else, but man, I have my comfort zone and at the end of the day it's still just a transaction.

I stopped going to my nearest mcdonalds because a fast food worker was nice to me
This tall white girl named Sam started smiling at me and laughing whenever she recognized my voice on the intercom, and gave me free food all the time. One time I asked her why, she said it was because I was nice. I was polite, but I am pretty sure I didnt say anything overly nice. What is there to say at a fast food drive thru, right? And she was white, I was asian. I felt strange getting hit on by a white girl. She was gorgeous and didnt belong at a mcdonalds doing drive thru work, so I had no idea how to approach this situation. So I simply ignored it, like the spineless cuck nobody raised me into. Sometimes Id go back inevitably, and she would be there. I never forgot when we first met, she handed me my order and her eyes got super wide while staring at me, like she was looking at the most beautiful guy in the world, but again how could that be me? Well, it's over now.

Ironic you're telling people to grow up and you're still not old enough to stop caring. Clinging to your breadcrumbs of feigned kindness; "it is still someone showing a tiny fragment of kindness towards me."

I will say I'm indifferent with interactions and don't avoid them, but the real key is being happy with yourself. Just about no one can really do it, but then you're never bothered by anyone else again and can actually enjoy good interactions without coming off desperate like your post.

[Anonymous No.13169882]

Every time I would go to a bar I’d get picked up by a couple that would bring me with them out of pity and we’d go bar hopping. On multiple occasions I’d hang out and play pool with various couples and just tag along. I’m reserved and I like eating dinner alone along with copious amounts of beer. The couple always makes the first break in conversation. The guys weren’t cucks or anything wanting me to fuck their girl. I suppose the just pity me. But I enjoy eating alone occasionally and just watch sports or play keno. I gave up on relationships for a while. Sometimes I’d piss the couple off and they’d ditch me or I’d swap number with them and lose contact or interest after a few weeks because I rarely visit the city. I was hanging out at a bar and a another couple approached me. Turned out to be her brother in law so I gave her my number and we started dating. I no longer hang out in bars that much but still do occasionally. My confidence is up now that I’m getting laid again. Had a dry spell for a few years. Anyway, end of blog. I just wanted to shed some hope on fellow anons that haven’t been laid in a while or ever.

Nigga. Dandruff shampoo doesn’t fix dandruff. It just makes it go away for half a day, only for it to come back in the afternoon. Also they make the scalp really dry and the hair brittle, so it becomes impossible to comb my hair, even when I use conditioner.

Like I said, I’ve been trying to get rid of it for 5 years now. I’m no stranger to the countless dogshit remedies out there.

The only problem I have is I hate eating at a place by myself and will usually go out to eat with friends.

Don't think that guy meant that the anon should have delivered the load line word for word, but rather he was saying that anons would be better off if, instead of bitching about women, they tried to make contact (not physical, at least not without consent) with them. Basically, anons out here bitching that women don't give them the time of day instead of talking to women.
