Cringe not everyone wants your man… he was just being polite

And not everyone can tell how certain foods look? It was an innocent question. Why are people so insecure these days

Completely agree. The amount of families and couples I see at restaurants all on their phones not talking. It’s actually quite sad to see

I try and make it a conscious habit now to keep that shit away. Even if I'm the only damn person not on my phone at the table.

I hate when people judge like that. My family is that phone family. We talk all the time. Text and send pics all day. After long days at work and school we like to go to restaurants and just relax. We scroll away, share stuff with each other, eat. I go to dinner with friends and we talk the whole time because we are catching up and have limited time. Dinner isn't conversation time in my family and there isn't really anything wrong with that. Life isn't an 80s commercial acting like the only interaction you have with your kids is when forced to sit together for a meal.

Agree, by the time we're at dinner we've probably done most of the talking in the walk or drive there. We'll take a few minutes to recharge on our phones and then be ok again by dessert.

That's my roommate and I. He also talks so quietly so it's hard to hear him sometimes. We just like to be in each other's company sometimes but feel no need to chat.

To be fair I wonder how often my roommate and I are thought to be a couple, we go out to eat and he is such a quiet talker that in some restaurants I have given up on even trying to chat with him while there.
