Meeting up with old friends in a grocry store what to do???

Does this happen to you?

I go to the grocery store and sometimes it usually ends up where I meet up with someone I know or haven’t seen in ages….this happens to me all the time…

~ so you have a chit chat, and play catch up hi etc…..after about 5/10 mins you say ~ Oh so lovely to see youand we’ll have to meet up again, invaribaly exchange numbers and arrange to get together at some point ending with ~ we must not leave it so long next time…….a couple of mwah, mwah, bye byes and off you both go…….

Gah you walk down the next aisle and you see them at the other end lol….

..So do you go in the next aisle and the next one and the next one and keep saying ohhh hello again?…

…..or do you try and hang back, go the opposite way and turn around if you see them again? not thats its being rude but just makes you feel funny after you said all thecgoodbyes…..

.. it seems after a few months of not seeing that person they are in every aisle you go down!!!!!

just wondering that’s all…

  1. Hahahaha Debz, this does happen all the time and with clients from work who want some advice on my peaceful Saturday!

    I found it a bit embarrassing meeting in every aisle after the goodbyes so I go slow and let them get a couple of aisles ahead. If we meet at the check out we have another little chat and no ones feelings are hurt.

    Enjoy your shopping love xxxxx skip

  2. yes debz it surely does. over thye new years weekend, my grade school friend stopped and surprised me with a visit. havent seen each other for 20 years. it took us 3 hours to catch up. it was wonderful. exchanged emails, now she mails me 3 times a day…on most days of the week. our lives ae very different, i dont have much more to say right now. LOL she does!!!! Hahaha…most of which i have no interest. girst i felt terrible, then i realized its just part of life. i answert oner mail a day, whicvh i am comfortable with, and it appears that is enough for her as well…down the aisle of the supermarket, it is a silly situation isnt it, guess i would make it a humorous one, saying’ “hello, long time no see, hahaha.”

  3. Lol happy i’m not the only on…

    ..I sort of do what skip does and go a bit slower …

    .thing is as I’m ususally that ‘organised’ I catch them up, so I find myself stopping at the shelf a little bit behind them looking at food itmes of which I have no intention of buying!!!………and thinking ohhh please hurry up ……

    hmmm I wonder if they do the same ????lol

    anyways thanks for the replies!
