What is your reaction when somebody stares at you?

Hi Baby, Really? so staring is just an ordinary thing in your country though it's recognized as being rude or making another person feel uncomfortable. I hope there's not much crime reported that's related to staring in your country. Scary but it your people will be like you of just ignoring it then there will be no trouble. Thanks for sharing and wish you all the best in life and career! Have a great day!!!

Yes here it is an ordinary thing. Nope there are no crimes of that sort reported yet. lol Thanks for your nice wish and have a nice day too. :)

Hi Peavey, I think I did that...staring or looking at another person for no reason at all--my mind is blocked and nothing's going on. It's just a pause for me without realizing that I am staring another person or my eyes got stuck on her/him. Thanks God, it did not put me in trouble. Now I will be more careful. That's the scary part of "staring" when you can sense some danger out of the looks. I will not only ignore it but will surely walk as fast as I can to get out of his/her sight. You're right...being stared at gives you an awkward/uncomfortable feeling!

By the way thank you for taking the time to respond on my discussion!

Hugs, M!

Hi C, Thanks for dropping by. Yes you are right that's one of the things I learned and really so careful not to stare at all as it's really rude. Yes C, there's different kinds of stares LOL. Have a lovely day!!!

Hi Jane, Nice to see you in my discussion. Thanks for taking the time to respond. Wow! Amazing! Men looking at you even if you are with your hubby and they're with their partners too...and you are affirming the fact that it's all about your boobies. You are gifted and you acknowledged it. You are really cool Jane. You cheered me up!

I've never thought of myself as being 'gifted' for having large boobies but I'll take it lol. It's lovely to see you back here..how long have you been back? Are you OK in the US?

Hi Annavi, I admire you for having the guts to approach and ask them for reasons why they are staring at you. As for me I will just ignore it and will not engage into any conversation with them. I will be scared. Thank you for your time to respond on my discussion!

Oh wow! Really? that's funny cool. But you have a point there. He might be attracted to you but does not have the guts to approach you. He just contained himself to staring. Well, sorry for him not knowing you more LOL! Thanks for this story!

hello msf, well, actually i don't have the guts to tell it right ahead. let me tell you a story back then when we were in the hospital with my niece and my siblings. my niece was confined back then and the two of us are lying in bed that time when suddenly there was a guy who was a visitor of the patient beside us who keeps on looking at us, i really don't know what he is looking at. but then there comes my sister who also visited us and she was standing beside the guy since the room is just small and it is a ward. well, i told my sister that guy keeps on looking at our things or whatever it is at us. she then asked the guy, what is it? (with a kind-of-mad tone) haha then the guy suddenly look away and didn't say a word. from then on, he didn't look again or even glance...at all. after few minutes, he left with his friends... See, i told you i don't have the guts, but then i think if the guy still looks again, that would be my time to stare at him and ask him what's his problem? well, it depends also on what i see in him or her... ^_^

Hi Rohithkiran, Wow, that's a good reflection about how you react to things and manage your emotions. At least no more fights this time but more careful about what's going on around you. And if it's really working this time --so be it and enjoy life! Cheers and blessings! Thanks for your response!

Thanks Dawn. That's the best reaction to do...IGNORE!!! Have a nice day!

Hello Cowgirl, Yes, it's really rude but you did the right thing of just ignoring them not unless you have a business to do with them wherein they're waiting for a signal act on like what you mentioned in you first paragraph. I admire your courage to walk right by them and tell them about being rude for staring at you. I will not say anything instead i might just look at them and my look will say it all. Thanks Cowgirl for sharing your thoughts about this discussion. Have a great evening!!!

I think it's more of a nicety to tell them that they are staring, it makes them feel embarrassed and realize how wrong they are. It's rude to stare, it really is, but I do understand when people are deep in thought instead, as I have done this, feeling embarrassed after waking up from my reverie and seeing I've been staring.

Hi Wilsongoddard, Thanks for your response. Bottom-line staring anybody is really rude whatever reason they may have to make it as an excuse. Ignoring them is just the best way that we can really do wherever we go to. Have a great afternoon!

Hi Stanley, I definitely agree with all that you said. You are so sensitive (in a positive way)and concern about other peoples thoughts and feelings that you don't want to do the same to you. Most of the time stare leads to trouble. Thanks for responding and have a great day!!!

Hi Ferianneful, Well said! That's confidence. You might be adorable that guys can't helped it but to stare at you. That's a good self affirmation. Hurray to that! Thanks for your response!!!

Hi Manjet, I do the same thing too when I talk to people. But just to stare is weird and annoying. Then if you truly appreciate somebody then when you stare couple it with words of compliment so it will result to positive and happy feeling. It's nice to know that you look in the eye not just stare but admire or appreciate a person. Have a wonderful day and thanks for sharing your thoughts in my discussion.

Hi Jatelo, The categories I mentioned were based on my experience of how I perceived the way they stare at me but most of the time i don't mind as long as they're just staring at me and no intention to do me harm. At least you are brave enough to approach and confront them and know the reason why they're staring at you. Thanks for your sharing!

Hi Tam, At least you are confident about yourself and not be bothered about being stared at. Waving is a good way to counteract a stare. At least you are letting the person know that you are aware about him/her staring at you and maybe you wanted to know why. At least you tool it positively not take it seriously or be affected by it. Take care and have a lovely day. Thanks for sharing!

Hi Kiran, Stares used to make us feel paranoid that it's a negative "look". You're right, most of the time it might just be a "blank" look where the person is thinking of something else and sad to say his or her eyes got stuck on you without any meaning at all. Thanks for taking the time to respond!

Dear Fulltank, That's good! At least you will not be trouble for staring. As long as it will not make another person uncomfortable, it's fine. Thanks for sharing your thoughts about this discussion!

Hi Jenny, That's right...that's the best thing to do when we're not sure what that stare is all about. At least you will be spared from any further trouble. Cool reaction! Thanks for your response!

Hi Sky, Aha, so it depended on who's staring at you? hopefully, with the cuties it will be a flirty look and will resulted positive when you approach them. That's cool. But who care's attitude is fine just like ignoring them is the safest thing to do. Thanks for your response!

Hi Ofzhernandez, It's quite embarrassing when you are trying to figure out if you know the person and started staring at him or her and then she will react negatively or annoyed. Good if you know the person and her or she recognized you but if not it's really embarrassing and scary. They might do something that can hurt you/us. Thanks for your response!

Hi Kit, That's cute and funny! Staring-contest...wow! I haven't try it. Maybe with my hubby and then you know what's going to happen next right???!!! Thanks for responding!
