Food Vibes: Dining Out With Friends (Patreon)

I have just one question about this topic: If you made plans to go for dinner with friends, would you trust them to pick the restaurant without any input or anything from you?

I feel like, generally, this would depend on the friend, but as long as they know all your food allergies, it should be fine, probably...? But it's such a weird and kind of anxiety-inducing prospect, just trusting people to know what you might like, and to go into a situation having absolutely no idea what to expect 😅

Last week, I went for dinner with a couple friends from university. I don't drive, so they picked me up and we all went over together. But I had absolutely no idea where we were going 😂 At one point, I was even walking ahead; I was leading! But I didn't know where I was going. I just figured they'd tell me when I needed to turn / if I was going the wrong way 🙈

Thankfully, it was a great restaurant and I really enjoyed it. But I do not know if I would do that again 🙈 You want me to go to a pace I've never been, with no idea of the cuisine (because I don't even know where we're going), and just blindly pick what to eat when I get there? With no chance to study the menu? The layout of the restaurant? Psychotic. No pls 😂

Would I still trust these particular friends if they decided to do that again? Absolutely.

I think for me, it's less about not trusting people to choose the place without input, and more just that there's not a lot of people I'd be willing to deal with that anxiety for 😂

With SisterUnmuted, though, I would trust her completely and with little-to-no anxiety because I know I'll probably just end up ordering the same thing as her 🤷‍♀️
