    Even though I’m an introvert, I love running into people I know while shopping. It’s usually a short interaction (we’re both there to get food and not socialize) and it’s nice to see a familiar face.

      This checks out. But what I struggle with is the awkward dance around ending it somehow.
      Do I just bounce or shop together?
      What happens if I see them again in the store?
      Do I need to acknowledge the re meeting?

        Depends on the store size, I guess, I usually bounce

        What happens if I see them again in the store?

        Don’t acknowledge it, you’ve already said hello
