Men kiss women on the cheek here to greet them. Usually it's a generational, higher class sort of thing.
I see it more as people wanting to act like they are in a higher class than they are. I never see it in upper class people. Mostly lower, and immigrants.
You are way overthinking it. It only means that they are saying hello. Married, single, doesn't matter. Some people just like to hug hello and goodbye, others do the peck on the cheek, some shake hands. If you aren't comfortable with it, just stick out your hand to shake next time before they get close enough to kiss you. It means nothing, absolutely nothing.

I don't like it. I avoid people that do it.
Around me, they are definitely upper class!! I've known the people who do this 30+ years and they are between 50-75 years old.
Again, I do not think they were hitting on me. I want to know if it means they find me attractive. That way, I will have confidence approaching single women.

Again, you are obsessing over older women, period.
It's just a social convention -- more prominent in some areas of the country than others. It's meaningless, like a handshake. Don't get your hopes up. :-D

If your sense of self-confidence is dependent upon external validation it's not really self confidence, and until you address that you will struggle with relationships, JMO.
Enjoy the attention it was harmless, but it excited you a bit, yes? Is that your concern? You had a physical reaction?
