I highlighted the above quote/question because for some reason, seeing people eating alone does bother me. Always has.

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

Then the solo/non-solo thing is kind of a big deal to you.
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.
It's fine if some people cringe when seeing someone dining solo but I think those people need to spend time paying attention to their "plus one."
What's the point of a "plus one" if you're staring at the next table (or checking your IPhone----cringe).
