Let me just say that when some people get elderly, they will tell you pretty
much anything.

Have you ever actually read any of your posts before hitting Send?
There's no other reason we'd know you only use 1-ply toilet paper,
except you told us.

And isn't "ad nauseum" more appropriate than "ad infinitum"?

I've been eating alone for over 20 years. I live alone and most of my relatives live far away and most of my friends are not close enough to go out to eat with except occasionally. Also, I like to go to lots of difference ethnic restaurants that my couple of local relatives and some of my friends do not like.

I have never felt stigmatized or embarrassed to eat out alone. I don't understand why anyone would but then I'm just used to doing whatever I feel like whenever I feel like it whether anyone joins me or not. I also love to travel alone. I have driven across the country by myself many times. I actually almost prefer to do it alone.

Anyway, I enjoy dining out with others but don't need company to enjoy dining out.
