Eating alone at a restaurant should be normalized more often

Last week was my first time ever eating out alone and i was actually nervous. I wanted breakfast and didn’t think to order takeout so while in line decided to dine in. Truth be told It wasn’t bad, I enjoyed my alone time. I think we’re programmed from a young age that eating with others is a must. It’s seen on tv sitcomes, movies, in public, in school, etc. And if you eat alone then to some there must be something wrong with you when there might not be anything wrong. Anyway the food was great and I might go back when I have the chance.
