My $.02: The key word here in my mind is friendly. Friendly, no-pressure, actually reading the other person's cues. If they're not returning your glances, if they look like they want to be left alone -- leave em alone.
I was at a buffet recently a few times by myself and each time I happily...
I'm sorry to say I can totally picture someone doing that, ungh, how awful. You are lucky other people were around to see the interaction and call her out on it.

I've been worried about this for much longer than the last few months, to be honest.
But anyhow, in general: it's 2014. Transparency! Information is good.
