This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Idk what OP is doing wrong, but in my experience bartenders and service workers are always hooking up - with each other, with patrons, at after work social engagements...
The job sort of requires you to be social, to be friendly, to engage with strangers, and to empathize with other people.
That's not to say the relationships last. Plenty of drama in the service industry, too. Lots of substance abuse. Lots of cheating. Lots of traveling, boom and bust with the economic tides, and risk taking for better or worse.
But the idea that you're just a bartender for ten years and nothing is happening in your life is crazy.
If this is true or not is almost irrelevant, these people exist, male and female.
I might have become one of them if not for just sheer luck.
Neurodiversity can have all kinds of effects and not being able to connect with people can be one of them.
Just be kind, to your fellow humans, not everyone can do what they want to do.
It's Truthy.
Very believable, even if OP is just passing along the story
The only true part is they are alone.
It's odd that she would avoid alcohol while pregnant but not sushi.
What's wrong with Sushi while pregernant?
Here ya go: https://www.healthline.com/health/pregnancy/can-pregnant-women-eat-sushi
tl;dr:
I guess you could probably have like vegetable tempura or avacado rolls or something, but depending on how it's prepared it might still be around the raw fish.
There's also a risk of heavy metal exposure, especially mercury.
Wow! Yeah never knew it could be dangerous like that to pregnant ladies. I dont have any kids though, so.
Holy fuck. Do you really think sushi is as dangerous as alcohol to a fetus?
The two aren't even close.
People try to avoid known risk factors when pregnant, some stuff really is bad to roll the dice on. A lot of newly pregnant people also go overboard avoiding stuff that's classified as dangerous. It's not an unusual thing to say.
I know a lot of people like that. Likeable, but something just keeps them from forming those kind of relationships even just for a hook up.
I know a few, myself. But none of them are up till 4am on a Thursday night hanging out with other hot drunk horny 30 year olds.
The post says he's a waiter at a restaurant, not a bartender, though.
10 years as a server in a sushi restaurant, from 21 to 31, made me think this is an Asian dude who's parents own a sushi joint and he is required to work there.
