If she's not a close friend, why not say they r for your; daughter, wife, niece?
If she is, say they r for a "friend". Then, smile and wink. That should end the conversation and explain your nervousness!![]()

U can't keep doing the same things over and over and expect to enjoy life to the max. When u try new things, even if they r out of your comfort zone, u may experience new excitement and growth that u never expected.
Challenge yourself and pursue your passions! When your life clock runs out, you'll have few or NO REGRETS!
Why not just relax and not say anything unless she asks. Over the years I've been shopping when someone who knows me comes up. A few times they have asked what I had found. On one occasion a GG friend came up as I was going through bras on sale. She was going through the bras with the next cup size. I kept going and we gave each other the ones that were in their bin. My wife was there at a bin for her size so she knew they weren't for her. She never mentioned anything about my selections. We talked about the great prices, her new home, and daughter.
If you don't make a big deal out of it it won't be.
You owe her no explanation in the first place anyway do you care what she buys?
I appreciate everyone's advice, and am taking all of your suggestions under advisement. I am aware that if I am going to do/say something, it needs to be asap.
Yes, I did still make my purchase, although I didn't stop and look at anything else like I was planning to. I waited long enough to see what direction she was going, and went the other way. I had to circle back around to the checkout. Thank goodness for self checkout! I am not normally bothered by purchasing feminine things face to face, but that experience had me feeling way to on edge to have acted casual while buying those things.
I am going to make a post over on the Clothing, Shopping, and Beauty forum that is strictly about what I bought, and not the circumstances around buying it. I am excited about some of the things I got.
I am laughing at that typo too! I now have this image of a cartoon strip. A blacksmith is sitting on a stool applying red nail polish to a piece of chainmail. A customer is standing there saying "No, no, NO! I said mail polish, not nail polish."
Or a Knights Templar touching up his red cross on his chain mail gloves with the other Templar asking if he was gay because he was using nail polish and the first Templar says Its MAIL polish you idiot and in a low voice no I'm not gay.
