In middle school, kinda. I decided to look where else to sit since my ex friends were backstabbers 😑. So, I ate in the library sometimes, and my school counselor told me I need to work on my social skills and eat at the cafeteria table 😑. Till high school came whoooo!!! I ditched so much classes and even during lunch time 😎. I just walked to the nearest restaurant or go home to eat 😋 or sometimes eat a burrito 🌯 hanging out with outcasts such as myself.

It’s high school, you don’t really have to eat at the cafeteria table if you don’t want to. Go eat somewhere else and enjoy your solitude 😎 food taste better that way 😉😊

It's not that common. When I was in high school I remember one girl that did that. She was laid back and nice but she use to go to the second story of one of the buildings and eat in the staircase alone.

In my school we don’t really have lunch but we do sit around to eat every once in a while and I tend to sit with people and chat, you’d be amazed at how much being friendly can boost your morale!

Not in high school I'm had friends who'd always ask me to sit with them if they saw me alone or I just sat with my best friend even though I didn't fit in very well there was a couple of nice people who liked me enough to eat lunch with me.

But when I went college, I went to a different college far from any of my friends in the city to study art and design. It was a very ghetto college full of lot's of different people from different cultures and countries they all hung around in their own groups and I was pretty much one of the only white British, English speaking students there so I didn't really fit in and I would hang out in the girls toilets on my breaks. Till in my next year I started studying after college hours or in my free periods in empty art classrooms with other students and realised how friendly and kind they were towards me. Unfortunately we've pretty much all lost touch now but they were some of the bestes group of friends I ever had and we'd always have so much laughter and fun together, I really miss my old college buddies.

you think florida is bad? if you lived where I am (Georgia) it would be even worse. I've done all my schooling at home but my online school has real field trips and stuff, so usually when a trip has a lunch break I tend to be near the corner by myself, or if anyone it would be a smaller group. big groups are much

We sat there all the time right next to the entrance and sometimes we skived.

Comawhite666 · Answer

No, my group of friends sat in the middle of the school field most weathers! we never sat in the canteen as it was horrible and we tried sitting in the corridors when it was raining and we got kicked out each time. Eventually they started letting people eat in the school hall so when it rained we just sat in a circle with plastic chairs :P

IlyaTheImpaler · Answer

Yes, I prefer to eat alone so that I can focus on the food or my own thoughts. If I eat with my friends in highschool I would have to solve their problems it's very annoying.

ParisLove · Answer

Yep, everyone was mean. So I either would sit alone at the table and when a group of mean kids would show up I would get up and walk around the hallways really slowly to use up time or hide in the toilets until break was over.

LegateLanius · Answer

Yes, I did. Although in hindsight, I might have had a girl interested in me. I remember many of our interactions where she seemed to light up when speaking to me. One time in particular, she invited me to sit with her and her female friends. She said, "hey Brian, come sit with us, you'll be like a pimp." I guess I missed out on something that could have been beautiful.

Jjpayne · Answer

Florida huh, interesting... Yup, I tried to sit with some people sometimes it worked out other times it did not... But it's about finding the right group to sit with. I used to be friends with some goths too, probably still am if I see them

AlienParasite · Answer

Were I studied we didn't have lunch time only recess. Never had to deal with that trouble, I guess. But well, during recess I don't remember to be alone. I didn't had the same group of friends but always found at least a person I'm comfortable with.

Clo917 · Answer

am homeschooled, but I typically sit and eat lunch alone in my room if that counts.

avalonbob · Answer

No, we had tables for four. I sat with three friends right next to a table with four more friends.. I was famous for starting food fights, mainly flipping pudding with a spoon across the room. Only got caught once. I looked so innocent.

Kairu · Answer

Used to sit alone until I was 15. The people I hang out with are more like me nowadays. It was either alone or with people that were loud and annoying.

ChgzDaniel · Answer

No, I used to stand with all the "misfits" in the entrance to the school library. There was about ten of us, we all ended up being pretty close.

Find the table of theater people. You'll be welcomed with open arms. Unless you go to a prissy school then they may be rather stuck up.

SuccessfulHornDog · Answer

I eat alone at work most days because I go to lunch when it suits me and I don't care about eating alone. Sometimes a coworker will come over and ask if they can eat with me. I say yes and then we talk. Otherwise I am content to eat alone.
