Since my mind's set on shopping at the store, not dating, I would find it intruding, if a stranger would start analyzing the contents of my trolley, so I don't think of it that way.
I may have to observe the lonely male shoppers a bit differently from now on, to see if they are actually looking for a date. Hm... but observing them might make them think, I'm after something, when I'm not. I'd end up starting something I didn't intend to.
I was getting these thoughts on sales people after my husband was eager to do the shopping alone in a certain store.
They need to be careful how much friendliness they show towards customers.
