I realize this is just my personal issue. I'm pretty sure people don't really think anything of it to be honest. I don't think those things when I see someone else eating alone in a restaurant, but I just can't help feeling self conscious in that situation.
Well, despite my self conscious feelings, I have done this about 4 times before. Generally, the food has to be really promising for me to consider breaking through those feelings. The first time was years ago, Tan Mi Chinese buffet. MMMm, good! All the other times, it has been Mexican food! Apparently I don't mind the self inflicted humiliation for a good enchilada!

You know I feel you on this and as a big girl I always think people are thinking the same! I do though eat out on occasion alone and usually for Mexican food also! lol My favorite are cheese enchiladas! I say screw them all if they are thinking that! Love ya Becca!! :)
No i don't like doing. I have but you can count the times on one hand. For me, I just pick it up and go home. The only place I have eaten by myself is Cracker Barrel I think too, the waitress needs bigger tables filled..to get the bigger tip. Do you think the waitress gives better service if the table isn't just women?
It never bothered me to eat out alone at long as I had the company of a good book. If nothing else, it looks like I'm alone on purpose so I can read.
A good enchilada is definitely worth it! I've been known to dine alone in Mexican or fast food restaurants. I don't like it, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.
