What kind of robot thinks "hey are you waiting for someone" sounds like a normal thing to ask a person?

Be me Stood up by obvious catfish Sad that I fell for it again Even worse, the man who's been drinking alone while staring at me for the last half hour is coming over. He smirks and asks "hey are you waiting for someone"? I instinctually interpret it as "do you have any witnesses arriving soon?"

You've been watching this person for half an hour, you pick up certain cues, like they being alone and waiting instead of making an order.

Yeah like original post is bullshit but this isn't at all a foreign thing to say
