Just like me - I get easily irritated by others inconsiderate behaviour! It doesn't mean anything! Why people enjoy shopping is beyond me! For me, it is a chore!!

Not a big problem and not out of the ordinary its probably a very small fear of crowds (enochlophobia). That doesn't mean you think they're after you or anything it just means that being in them causes you some sort of anxiety. Lots of people have it to some degree. My grandfather has it and he simply avoid big crowds when he goes shopping for things, like he finds when the slower times of day are for shopping (meaning there are less people in the general shopping venues) and goes shopping then because most people at that time aren't in a hurry of lokking to run you over. And shopping online is a great idea! GO with it. : ) Good luck!

Thats called anxiety, you want things to happen quickly, you need to calm down, ask yourself what are you rushing for? Life is not an emergency. You are blessed with money, time, and good taste to shop, and you have so many shoppers around which means you are alive, so many things happen around you, in the form of jokes, conflicts, etc, one day when you want to write you will have lots of memories to add in your writing, How do you think writers are born, life experience.
You can do online shopping but there will be no human interaction, you will not burn calories, your joints dont move, doing things alone is like the living dead.
Living in the here an now is important. Every moment is to be cherished. Carry a book when you are standing in the line, so you can be occupied.

It is the sign of the times.. One would be VERY surprised at the number of people who feel like you.. They just shop online.. I do also.. I hate walking around dumb people walking along slowly in the malls. Actually, they are in the mall just to see what ils going on and not to buy anything

I thought I was the only woman on the planet to hate shopping and it does not matter what type food/clothes/houshold I hate it and welcome to my world.
It does not mean anything it is just that we do not conform to the "normal" sterio typical woman. Who says we have to like it and be in crowds I hate it. I do a fair bit on line and also would rather be in than out I love my home does that make me odd NO! I do enjoy the company of others but cherish my quiet times. We are all not social butterflys and please do not worry if you are happy being you that is all that matters and do not let anyone or anything change you.

You're a member of a very large club. I find the flourescent lights in malls and supermarkets really put me off!
Like me, you may be slightly agoraphobic. I find the bigger the superstore, the more stressful it is. The lights too bright, the music too loud, too many people standing between you and what you want to take off the shelf...other people's noisy brats...the human animal at its worst.

I think it means that you either don't need anything or you're mind is on something else entirely. I personally feel the same way. I don't shop at all unless I know exactly what I want/need. Unless I'm on vacation, I never shop with people who just want to look at stuff either.

It's just an opinion. Some hate shopping others love it. It doesn't mean anything. I personally like both.

Not that big of a deal. Just try not to think about their slow, lazy asses because they certaintly arent thinking about you. Walk around them, be rude if you have to. You are more of an introvert. Being depressed may or may not be related to being around others. I do not know you so I am not sure.

This world is illusion (Maya)and full of misery. If one is looking for true happiness and peace they have to have the veils of illusion removed from their consciousness. See the movie The Trueman Show with Jim Carrrey It will give you an idea of what I mean. The easiest and quickest to become completely happy is to chant the Maha Mantra
