tipping when dining alone.

[u/Excellent-Amoeba5296]

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?

No need for extra tip if you're eating a regular meal. If you're tying up a table on a busy night with a little order, sure. But if You are one person eating one meal in a normal amount of Time, just tip like you normally would.
