How many things have you put off because you thought they wouldn't be as enjoyable alone?<br>A restaurant... A concert... A trip... A movie...<br>What's something you've finally done by yourself and realized wasn't nearly as bad as you expected? 👇

Eating alone isn't the problem. Paying 50 dollars for a meal is.

The older I get the more I enjoy being by myself. It’s not that I don’t like being with other people, I just enjoy the peace and quiet.

I wanted to go out for breakfast on my birthday last year, but no one I knew wanted to go. So I went alone. I had never done that before. I noticed while sitting at the table that MOSTLY the people around me were people eating alone. I left after a good meal, feeling proud of myself for not letting being alone stop me from doing what I wanted. It was a good birthday present for myself on my 66th birthday. ❤

The negative side of loneliness is getting into a relationship with a person that is going to harm you .

Being alone is when you look at your partner & realize you've made a horrible mistake.

I used to eat at a buffet by myself, and about 20 yrs ago a guy stops by my table and starts talking to me. He invites me over to a table where a bunch of people are sitting. I reluctantly moved over and sat with them and ended up eating with them for years. The last time I ate with them was when everything shutdown for covid. Now the majority have passed away.
