But still, seeing single diners in restaurants, particulary elderly people, gives me an unexplainable twinge of sadness.

I don't understand some people's need to find a "plus one" for everything. There are people who won't do anything (non-work related) if they don't have someone to accompany them. Going out "on the town", attending religious services, etc. It is one thing to want someone to accompany you but to absolutely need someone to accompany you is different
I feel this way about the movies, the beach and vacationing. I feel like those things are specifically supposed to be shared experiences. IMO though.

Seriously. Unless I need a specific opinion, nope. I take FOREVER to shop, and often leave empty handed.
