Is it normal that i hate eating in front of people?

is it normal that I can't stand, and almost have a fear of eating infront of people? I'm not fat, I'm probably what you'd call slim/lanky. I'm 12stone 2lb and 6ft. I will go out of my way to eat on my own. il eat on my own in the car on my dinner break and il come up with excuses so I don't have to go out for meals with friends

    Its not normal, but I do the same. I eat lunch in my car and only snack in public if I'm hungry. I saw this person once leave the same restaurant I just ordered from. I was eating in my car and he was in the next parked one and ate in his car too. Come to think of it it might be normal.

    It is Normal = Natural. No Animal wants to be seen while eating, it's something you have to do unseen, since if you eat in front of others they could steal your Food.

    No... Really, that's because People don't like to be seen while eating...

    I use to be that way and I'm not fat either. I just feel like if I'm enjyoing my food in front of people, they may think I'm some kind of pig :\ that makes me feel uncompfortable

  • It's a fear that's been discussed before so while it isn't healthy, it is somewhat common.

      but it's an cost-efficient way to get rid of large parts of the corpses.

          nononono...a shovel leaves corpses...in the earth, sure, but it leaves them.

          The right combination of eating, grinding+flushing, and dissolving in acids will _NOT_ leave a corpse.

          Even if the party van shows up and does a torough check of your property, you can play it cool.

          • People who dismember always get done through DNA evidence. Always "bits" of them in drains, hairs in your carpet, blood specks you missed.

            "One hair and the cops are there"

            But many people get buried in a remote location and never found again. And no evidence in your house connecting it to you, so even if they find it, no connection.

              well, obviously you have to do things right. Hence the acids :) they help get rid of DNA in your "cleaning" part.

              If you do the deed someplace else, a nice big plastic bag will prevent evidence from showing up any place except those said cleaning parts...

              If you do the deed at home, you have the same problem if you bury them somewhere and need to prepare proper("don't mind the foil everywhere, i was going to paint this room.").

              But of course you are right, in the end, it is a mere matter of preference ^_^ Whatever disposal method makes one feel more comfortable, right?

    I see this story at least once a week, damn it, what problem does our society have with reading instructions?

    Yes, normal, but I have no issue with it.

    I don't know, but i also hate it. you can't eat the way you want and have to do it "slowly" so other people don't think you're gross or something. :/
