What do you think when people stare at you?

I oftentimes met people who look at me very deeply, like scurtinizing my soul. Though, I ignore them but sometimes I feel so uncomfortable and conscious about my looks. And, sometimes I get scared. What about you?

I usually just stare right back at them. Honestly if someone is staring at you and you stare back they normally stop staring because they feel self conscious or realize that they are being rude. Try it sometime, you have nothing to lose. It's like a boss of mine once told me..."What are you afraid of? It's not like they are going to bite you."

I will think that something is wrong with me if somebody is staring at me. I will begin to inspect my clothes to see whether there are any holes or tears that is obviously making people to stare at me. Or maybe it is because of my overall appearance, such as maybe my foundation on the face is not smooth or anything like my scarf is out of order or anything. Lol. If I am with somebody for example if I go out with my husband I will ask him whether there is something wrong with me. If he says nothing is wrong, then I know that the person staring at me is doing it for a purpose. I will just ignore it most of the time, but if he dared to wink or give a flirtatious gesture, I would tell my husband about it. Lol.
