I once saw my ex at Wal-Mart and hid in a rack of clothes in the boy's department. In retrospect, that was very immature. Would I do it again? Absolutely. I don't want to talk to him!!

I left or was left by all of my exes on good terms, so I have no awkwardness with them--I'm actually on friendly terms although I wouldn't call them my friends.
My "encounter" was awkward, I think it's because, at heart, I am not really proud of the way I cut things off (just ignored/stopped communicating). It's a bit out of character for me, but then again, I was really put off by the attitude and I don't think rude people need my respect or consideration.
There is a good chance I will run into this person again, I really don't care (I mean, I rather not run into them again, but I am not changing my life to avoid them either). While the encounter was weird (small world sort of way) and a bit awkward, in the end, this isn't the kind of person I like to be around anyway. And I doubt I was remembered anyway. So no loss.
You know, since timberline's comment about the avoiding the store thing, and as I'm thinking about my awkward date...
So I met up with that guy once, for an early dinner after work, at this burger place. He told me he eats there very often. The food was good.
I will never, ever go there again.
He was obviously acquainted with the waitstaff, and the guy who served us spent the entire time smirking at me, as though "our boy's gonna git some..." and man did that feel gross. Really gross. I got the feeling he'd been in there excitedly sharing details with his buddies in the days leading up to the date. Squicked me out bad.
I would rather actually have sex with the dude and then never see or speak to him again, than walk into that burger restaurant and see that smirking face ever again. But neither of those things are going to happen. Nope!
I ran into a man who my BFF went out with from OLD. This was back when we were meeting for lunch regularly and I was living vicariously through her OLD adventures.
She described him and he also has a very distinctive name, so when I sat across from him a few weeks later at a local meeting I couldn't help but think of the awkward goodnight kiss he tried to give her.
Surprisingly with all the women I've dated I've only ran into 1 but LA is a very big place. I never really dated this girl but I messed around with her a bet during the time when we both worked at Sears. I never wanted anything more and once I left the job we stopped talking. A few years later I remember crossing the street and I hear a honk. I look in the window and it's her. So awkward. I waved and walked to the other corner quickly and that was that.
Ever randomly run into someone you said no to when she invited you to the Sadie Hawkins dance when you were kids ... AT WORK?!
NO - but. Close to that.
I went out for drinks with a guy. I had two drinks (beer) and got a call from my mom that my grandfather had just passed away. I apologized, said I had to leave immediately, and gave him $10 to cover my drinks. Later that night, he texted me about how rude I was to leave like that and how I should at least meet up with him somewhere and hook up with him because he "paid for part of my drinks."
It was awkward. When I started a new job, he was the first person I saw.
