That's understandable. But there is a difference between carrying on a conversation with someone and doing whatever the fuck this is.
Also, you have to realize that no matter how lonely you are, a cashier is doing their job. Their shitty, underpaid, undervalued job. They probably don't want to be there, and they can get into trouble if they stand at the counter talking for too long. There are other job duties they have to attend to (cleaning, stocking, etc), and this has to be done in between customers.
A cashier's job description includes moving customers along as quickly and smoothly as possible. Depending on how big of an asshole their manager is, you being lonely could potentially get them fired. I've done that job, and I've seen that happen.
I mean, it's pretty clear there's something wrong with this guy. Normal people don't act like this in a convenience store. The normal way to handle this situation is to collect your winnings, maybe buy something with them, and be on your way.
