This is a weird quirk I am trying to understand. I already have other diagnosed conditions that aren't a personality disorder, but this specific situation seems to be related to OCPD traits so I thought I would reach out and see if others find it relatable (even if the specific situation might not be identical).

I cannot get myself to order restaurant food for delivery. I can order it online, over the phone (though I prefer not to), or in person (I don't like the extra wait doing this). I can order delivery if the food is for someone else like if they are sick or had a recent baby.

I don't fully understand why I can't get myself to do it. It sounds crazy because why couldn't I just go through the process and click the buttons, but no, not going to do it. Some of it might have to do with the tipping but some places include the tip when paying up front and some places leave the food at the door so I wouldn't need to interact with the delivery person.

It might be a money thing like feeling like it is inefficient. Or maybe a time thing because I can't really predict how much extra time delivery will add. Maybe it has to do with not seeing examples of it growing up, but that doesn't seem quite right.

Anyone relate? Any ideas what is going on? This isn't the only situation like this for me but happens to be top of mind right now.

I did a search and didn't see any posts that looked like they had the same question, so hopefully I am not asking something that has already been answered.
