No. Anybody that thinks otherwise has no self-confidence. Imagine actually caring about what total strangers think of you. I have eaten at restaurants by myself many times and never felt embarrassed in any way because I truly give no shits about it.

No, plenty of people have jobs where they aren’t exactly expected to be hanging out with someone, and everyone needs to eat. It’s perfectly normal, the only thing(s) barring you from it is:
A) you think people care about your appearance too much
B) people do care about your appearance because you’re a disheveled NEET that needs to clean himself up a bit
C) you’re so autistic that, even though you look and act completely normal and nobody gives a fuck about you at all, you somehow still think you have to “act normal” for the people around you. Might also be worsened by previous pyschedelic use with its dissociative lasting effects.

I eat at restaurants alone all the time. 99% of the time I eat out it’s alone. What would be the purpose of having a ton of people with you to rack up a hundred dollar plus bill. In that case you should be cooking at home and making them help you. Restaurants were invented to feed men while they were working away from home, not for socializing like faggots.

Why would eating by yourself in a restaurant be creepy? You're there for food. You're there to enjoy your food in peace and quiet. What's the fucking problem? Are you sitting there touching yourself and smiling at old ladies at the same time? Yes - that'd be fucking creepy. Are you trying to chat up children? Yes - that'd be fucking creepy. But you're not. You're just sitting there with your headphones on chewing on a god damn burger.

It's creepy if you make it creepy - otherwise, fuck anyone who judges you. You don't need to win the approval of street-randos. Their opinion has no value or weight in your every day life, so who cares what they think?

They got a good tip, definitely. Wasn't any place special, just a China Star. I could tell you which one if you really care, but there's better buffets in the area and I've had good service at all of them. Only Koreans have given me the cold shoulder lol, AYCE Korean BBQ, they'll get tired of bringing you plates... But self serve buffets are always great as long as you know what you're getting yourself into.

If I’m sober I usually do this. Just way out of my head, observing shit around me by looking around everywhere in public. If I’m high, I keep my eyes glued to my phone like an autist

Why is eating alone a bad thing, but having a cup of coffee and a smoke on a cafe veranda seen as a positive thing?

I went to McDonald's today and got a Filet-O-Fish combo with a bacon cheeseburger on the side. I was eating it in my vehicle in the parking lot and listening to an audiobook when I glanced up and saw the McDonald's worker I ordered outside having a cigarette.She waved at me and I nodded and had to wait 7 minutes before she went back inside and I could eat in comfort again. I don't think that employees should be bothering or even trying to socialize with customers outside of the McDonald's restaurant or drive through, but that is another story.

I went to McDonald's for dinner tonight and got a McChicken combo with a bacon cheeseburger on the side. As I was driving to the second window the same girl was still working. She was acting somewhat obsequious and attempting small talk when she asked, 'why don't you come eat inside instead of in the parking lot where it is cold'.

That really bothered me for many reasons. First of all, I don't want my routine or actions to be tracked by a fast food employee. Secondly, she should not try to tell me how I should live my life. I do not want to eat inside because I find it less comfortable and would much rather be inside my vehicle listening to an audiobook and enjoying myself and my privacy.

Overall, I think it was very unprofessional to bring this up. I should have a clean slate with each drive through visit, not have to get the third degree because I committed some sort of faux pas, which I don't think I did, because I often see people eating in fast food parking lots. How does she know I am not busy going to work or somewhere in a rush?

How do you feel about eating in your vehicle in the parking lot of a fast food restaurant versus eating inside the restaurant?

I don't think it's creepy, but rather why even go through the trouble. You take the time to ask them out for food and coordinate times, then not even talk to them most of the time. I'd rather eat and leave on my own time without any of the awkwardness.

if you are ugly, people will understand why you are eating alone

if you are hot, people will think you have mental health problems or are going through a breakup

if you are actually eating inside at a fast food restaurant instead of takeout, people will think you are on a lunch break or are poor

I see cute normie girls at cafes and coffee shops alone literally every day. Generally seeming to pretend to be busy on their laptop or an iPad. Real restaurant, sitting at the bar alone is fine. My buddy bartender at a very fancy steakhouse in NYC. Said pro athletes come in solo all the time during the week and grub at the bar

No, it is an indicator that you want/need to socialize but not creepy.

Meh, if you're eating alone in a booth or something, yeah. If you're eating alone at the bar or a small table, just shows your comfortable being by yourself and possibly up for conversation.

Going to a sit-down restaurant alone is a little weird. Not necessarily creepy, just kind of sad. Bars, hotel restaurants, and fast food chains are all fair game though in mu opinion.

Lmao I went on a date with this girl to the zoo. I bought us lunch and she got a veggie burger and at like 3 bites. I shamed her into eating the entire thing before we could leave.

Then I can sit in front of my computer like an autist and eat

i went to a movie by myself a few times. The most recent time some normies behind me were making fun of me for being alone. they said quite loudly something about them being too good to go to movies alone or something.

On the flip side it was a bf and gf, and the dumb bitch wouldnt stop talking and they just kept talking to eachother while im trying to enjoy the movie without distractions. Going to the movies alone is chad tier. fuck bringing a female along, they dont even pay attention to the movie.
