I have LITERALLY no friend who can come with me, keep company with me to a restaurant.

It sounds like I dwell on what people think of me, right? If so, how can I overcome this?

OR,

Going to a restaurant alone is really weird?

Thank you for answers.

Voidray, I don't think it's weird to eat out alone. However, it's not unusual for others to look at a person eating out alone as odd. Personally, I've decided that's their problem, not mine. Like others mentioned, I take a book to enjoy while I eat. I enjoy the quiet time.
