I was never good at multiple choice

I just might be the biggest doofus on the planet.

I just finished dinner (alone. kinda relevant, but that's not the point). The waitress just brought me the check, when the hostess walks towards my area. She says "Hi", I say "Hi". I was watching the game and it looked like she went back there to check on the score. She then turns to me and asks, "Where's your girlfriend or are you alone tonight?" That threw me for a big shock, so I said, "Nope, just me tonight." She then saw me putting my credit card into the tray and said she could help take care of that for me. I paid the bill and left. So here are my choices of how to interpret the event.

A) She was hitting on me and I was a retard and couldn't take the hint.

B) She was playing the female card and was trying to be overly nice to boost up the tip.

C) She thought I was another regular that normally brings his girlfriend (mistaken identity if you will).

My brain at the time choose scenario B. In fact, scenario A didn't even occur to me until I was halfway home. And I just thought of scenario C while typing this out. Why am I so skeptical of everyone and is this why I have a hard time with relationships? If it was scenario A, then I deserve to die miserably alone. No one should ever find my body until they complain of the bad smell coming from my place. They will then find my body half eaten by my 100 cats. Overly dramatic, but it serves the point for my epic failure today.
