Sweetheart (if you do not mind my calling you that), THIS is the way of Southern people!!
I grew up in VA. Very hospitable and congenial.
Moved to Miami, FL. NOT so.
Relocated to AL. WOW.
I was accustomed to “bumping into” someone in the grocery and saying excuse me - my fault or not. But here in AL, the OTHER person said it FIRST!!

Out here in the SW Wisconsin boonies, we will stand there for over a minute exchanging apologies when that happens!
Hon, we go to Kroger and WalMart to socialize! LOL. My boys kid me all the time. “Gosh, Mom. How many people do you know?”. Hehe!
Miami is occupied territory, hasn’t been run by Floridians for decades.
