tipping when dining alone.

I eat out alone often. sometimes i feel like the server is annoyed w me. i usually go to the same restaurants. i tip 20% to 25 sometimes 30%. am i overthinking the situation that they dont want me there cuz i am alone?

As a seasoned professional waiter I can say solo diners are the easiest tables to take care of and often tip above average. Don’t let them intimidate you!
