Hell i dont think so.

YES! I have no friends. I have no where to go and no one to talk to when I need reassurance. I want companionship so bad, but I can't seem to find it. I feel like I am destined to live my life as a loner.

i've had a few brew's alone with dinner last week....didn't bother me.

I could go out, don't have a ton of friends here anymore but I have no problem meeting people.....I have a problem tolerating them

I want to eat my food in peace and quiet. I don't want to be bothered with worthless small talk. I'm not a nice guy if my meal gets intrupted.

Just imanage how I would be if I actually had to kill my food moments before.

Nope... I do it all the time when I'm TDY.

Food may come in when I'm not alone, but when it exits my body I am ALWAYS alone.

I don't give a shit who is around when I eat out. Especially if I am at Golden Corral. Fuck 'em. I'm there to bust gut-period.

how many more threads are we going to get related to this?

Certainly better than not drinking at all!

I think the food thread was just coincidental with mine. This one is obviously a parody thread though.

No.

I eat alone all the time, and I drink (not to get wasted though) alone too.

Who cares? If I want company I go over to my Dad's or go to a restaurant and sit at the bar to eat/drink.

Oddly enough, no. They cancel each other out. They signify your are very refined, yet still know how to party.

This thread reminds me of one titled "I ate with Jews today."

IIRC, I answered that the OP had better be careful because next thing, he'll be drinking with the Irish.

Bieng married to Mrs Pic, it is truly a JOY to be able to eat alone.

She has something bad to say about everything.

"You know, some guy in Outer Slobivia put Russian dressing on his salad and died the next day."

or: "On Oprah, they said that eating too much green pepper can cause a rare form of leprosy."

Tonight was a JOY!

I built a roaring fire, started it with about 1/2 gallon of gasoline, turned it into a towering inferno and threw a 2 pound steak right into the middle of it until the neighborhood smelled like Auschwitz, then I flipped it and repeated the process.

I put it in a pie plate I swiped from Sourgal's Bakery, drug it inside, lopped a chunk off for kitty and smothered the entire thing with chili. wolfed it down in huge chunks and washed it down with Cabranet from a box '06.

Guess what?

I enjoyed the hell out of it,

Nobody said shit to me.

Oprah was silent, and Dr Phil said nothing.

But most of all, Mrs Pic never said a word!!!

It's OK to eat alone.

And in my case, more than OK.

Sometimes it's a joy!

I posted on another thread that I have eaten at restaurants by myself but b/c I have to drive home, I have not drank by myself at a bar or restaurant. I have drank by myself at home. I don't think it is sad to do either unless you are alone, as in no spouse, significant other, etc. Drinking alone was different. YMMV and all that.

I think "doing shots", alone, with a Shrimp Caesar Salad may cross the line.

I don't think so. Not preferable but not sad either

Yes, but that's the norm in this apartment, heh.

No.

I do it all the time and have no problem with it.

My tastes are much different from my friends and if I had them over for dinner constantly my life would be sustained off of boxed mac n cheese. When I cook for myself, I can cook whatever I want to eat.

no, do what ya got to do...

Posted: 4/20/2008 10:56:27 AM EDT

I even watch movies by myself.

I never drink alone...It's always me and Jesus.

Posted: 4/20/2008 11:02:27 AM EDT

Hope not, looks like I may be eating and drinking by myself for now on

Me neither. Bitches cheer me on and throw dollars at me, screaming, " I'm next"!!!

I go most places alone

No one loves me

Doesn't bother me. If I feel like eating something and no one else joins me, no big deal. Drinking alone seems overly melodramatic, though, but that's just my opinion.

If I am by myself I usually get it to go
