I don't notice them. I know they stare, but I just try not to notice/look at people. They're really not that interesting.


Your face still colours my mind.

In the uk where i live there is a stupid male mentality,that it makes you "hard" to try and stare down people when your out and about,its sort of a challenge to the other person,and if you dare look back you often get asked what your looking at

It would make me as stupid and idiotic as them to kick off about it but sometimes its tempting,i feel like ive got a friggin tv on my head.

Thats a really good mentality to have,they try and teach you that in c.b.t,that people arnt really that intresting,and neither are we to tother people,if were getting looked at its probaly human curiousity or a logical reason.

I try to avoid eye contact most times, but people really do have a thing about staring. At most I'll glance and then look ahead. Danfalc has a point about young guys here in the UK they are morons...

I've never even noticed people staring at me... or if they looked at me it was just for a few seconds as I passed by their line of vision. Of course, I rarely wear my contact lenses, so I can't even tell if someone is looking at me most of the time if they're far enough away... this could be a good thing or a bad thing. But I couldn't see myself getting angry about it... I wouldn't even give it a second thought. If they're staring at you, it's most likely their problem, not yours. Forget about it and move on.

I think this is everywhere, its a guy thing. Everywhere I go I get atleast 1 hard look by some wannabe/ganbanger or some big guy. Pisses me off cause I know what they are doing and sometimes I dont bother with it but other times I get mad and stare back. I wish these ****ers would grow up someday.

Only when they are in groups,its not enraged,more like nervous,some people like to be sarcastic,say some indirect things,then I get enraged.

I don't notice anyone staring at me. I can't imagine it happening to someone, unless you have something really visibly wrong with you (people have no scruples when it comes to that).
