On the other side of the coin - I swear this happened to me.
I was shopping in Coles and a gentleman came up to me and said “Wow it’s good to see you again - what are you doing here, I hope you are well!”
I said “Nice to see you!” (Wracking my brain in a panic!) “I’m just our for a spot of shopping” (like, Duh”.
He then says with a wink - “Hope to see you again soon!”
That’s when I realised.
“Bollocks” I thought to myself.
Hopefully nothing like that will happen again to you!
