It’s been a long time zince Eyam went to a cafe to have a me-time. As zhe reads the ztory of Chayle zhe can’t help but wonder about what zhe does while ztaying in a cafe with other customers during her me time. It was mentioned that zhe’s usually alone in restaurants during her me-time but does zhe also have conversation with others. Is zhe naturally flirtatious when there are other men around? Zhe wonders if zhe is very affectionate with others as well.
Me-time – December 29, 2021
Me-time 1
I like being with other people and having conversations with them. I enjoy doing activities with my friends. I love spending time with my family… But… I also like having my… me time.
A few years ago, one of my colleagues and I decided to go to the mall together. While walking on a concrete bridge, we were talking about where to eat after buying what we needed. We eventually talked about eating out alone. She told me she can’t go solo in a restaurant because she feels uncomfortable. When she asked me if I don’t feel awkward eating out alone, I said no, I actually like eating alone in a restaurant. She was surprised when she heard my answer. I think she finds it weird that I can comfortably do that. But actually, I’m a bit surprised by her reaction. 😱 That’s the first time I realized that not all people are comfortable going to restaurants without having someone with them. I don’t know if it’s a good or a bad thing that a woman can comfortably eat alone in a restaurant. 🙄 But I actually wonder why it’s a big deal for others. 🤔 Is it because eating alone makes you look lonely? 🙄 But I’m thinking, if I’m out, and I’m starving, of course, I need to eat, so I need to go to a restaurant. So why should I be shy? 🤔 That’s a natural thing to do, right? So I don’t understand why it’s a big deal. 🙄🤔 I think being alone in a restaurant doesn’t mean that you are lonely, maybe it’s even the opposite. Maybe the person is actually enjoying herself at that time. 🙄

Me-time 2
I go to restaurants, cafes, moviehouses, and malls alone. I don’t have issues with that. I actually do it a lot of times. I do it when I want to have my me-time. There are things that I enjoy when I’m with my friends and family, but there are also things that I appreciate when I go out alone. I like having me-time because it allows me to relax, do what I want to do, be where I wanna be, and move according to the pacing I want. I can enjoy my time.
During my me-time I can stop and stare at places that fascinate me. 🙆 I can take time to enjoy and feel where I am. I can immerse myself and enjoy using my senses. When I do that I find inspiration and most of the time that urges me to write about the ideas that come to my mind and the things that I appreciate at that moment because I might forget them. I enjoy doing that… It makes me happy. It’s my way of enjoying the present, the here and now. (i like this “here and now” 😊)
Me-time, is usually a time for self-care, pampering yourself, and just doing what you want to do. 💆 But me-time for me, is not just a time to breathe, relax and rest. Mostly it also becomes a time where ideas flow through my head💡While I’m sipping a hot choco or eating a cake, I’m able to write or create something. When I’m enjoying a foot massage and foot spa, I get to think of strategies. When I go to a movie house, I get to hear what makes people laugh and happy. When I see nature I can take pictures of the things that I like… and I feel refreshed too. 🙆
So my me-time (or sometimes me-day) also becomes a time to grow, a time to create, a time to pursue my passion, and a time to be productive… while enjoying.. 🙆
So if others see me alone in a restaurant or elsewhere, I’m okay with it. Most probably I’m having my me-time at that time, and that means I’m having a great time. 🙆 So… I really wonder why eating alone in a restaurant is awkward. 🙄🤔
Hope everyone can happily enjoy your me-time too.. 😊
Kiss! 💋
