Should I feel wierd or anti-social because most days i like to be by myself on break and lunch when at work?
My childs father works there and we have been in an extremely messy situation that involves other women, after all the drama and him following me around work with these women i choose to eat alone at my desk rather than eat with a group and risk being in another awkward situation with him. Any good suggestions? is there something wrong with that?

by no means should you feel that away! and further more. How ever you wish to spend your break time is your business! don't worry about how other feel ! they are not paying your bills!

I don't blame you at all. I like taking my break alone as well as many of the others I work with, we all need "Me" time

it's normal, i always seek my lunchbreaks away when i can, quiet time. You do what you want, it's YOUR lunchbreak.

nothing wrong with it just explain to people you need to chill out and relax at lunch. take earphones listen to music and forget about that guy. the only other way round it is to look for a new job. If you can handle it the way it is then ignore what he thinks. can you explain to anyone else in your work why you sit alone? The real problem is him and the woman ..not you.

that is really complicated. it sounds like a good idea to lay low for a while. at some point you may want to set up a meeting with him to discuss this situation and try to find a way to resolve it. so you can come out of hiding so to speak. and so you feel safe to enter into a social relationship with your co workers.

It's OK and don't let anyone tell you different. I am that way naturally. It's difficult to change. Don't change unless you're unhappy as-is.
