This has been bothering me

I so agree with you. I hate when people stare. Its so rude. I especially cant stand when a guy looks you up and down, or just plain stares. They even do it when your with your man. ugh. And I am not trying to make a stereotype about all guys, there are some decent ones. And I hate the people that stare because you look different. I just want to say something rude to people, but I force myself not to.

this is common. People do stare and it's quite annoying I have tried staring back and normally people would stop this way.

It is annoying. For some people they're probably sizing you up or forming their opinion or first impression of you. When they keep staring it does become downright rude in my opinion. Sometimes they may be lost in thought and not even realize they're staring? Who knows? I just ignore them and go about my business. I figure it's their problem, not mine!

firstly are you a guy or a girl. and its always rude to stare at anyone didnt anyone teach these people. also you could try this, walk up to the person who is staring at you and ask him/her why. If the opposite person ask you out at that time then tell him/her that he didnt had the balls for asking out himself that he/she had to resort to staring.

anything that does not goes according to my plan even aftyer my utmost effort pisses me off to the core! I simply cannot stand my plans or my work or anything that i'm working on left undone. I try to achieve success in whatever i start.

the real mantra is that you just ignore those people or another option is that you start staring them too. It is 100% gaurenteed that they will take their eyes aside

We had the same problrm. I hate people staring at me. And sometimes look at you from head to foot. SOmetimes I want to deal with them and punch their face. I find them uncivilized and ignorant of beautiful people. LOL! They are the kind of peole who is ill mannered.

Yes I do and like you I do not like it but it happens all over the Place I just turn my back now and try to ignore it

Go straight confront them right away. Those judgmental people has no place in this world. Stay from those pest.

I hate it too I've said to one person "Do you have a problem" and they just said "No" so I just left it at that but as I walked off I could feel the stare.... I noticed my friend do it once look a person up and down and then I confronted her about it and said why did you do that and she relied with did you see what she was wearing.... Yeah well look at me I was pregnant at the time in daggy clothes. Yeah but that's different she replied... No it's not.... I think there is a lot of people that do it.

Oh yeah. It happens all the time. I was at a meeting the other day for work and a man came and stood next to me. I saw him out of the corner of my eye looking at me from head to toe. It was so creepy.

yes,i have noticed people that stare it is rude i try and ignore it but if i cant i say what?and most of the time they just stop it.if someone is staring at you then why dont they just talk to you instead of staring because it is annoying and very rude.

It doesn't bother me. the only time i stare at someone is when I fall asleep with my eyes open.

I think people that tend to be wary of all people need to sum them up with staring. I wouldn't let it bother you, it's more of a nervous/insecure reaction to their surroundings than anything about you.

I have had that happen. I just smile and say hello. Some will turn away and move on, others will start a conversation. I don't see it as a big deal when they do that.

The effect this discussion is having on me is that I am thinking I want to start staring at people more so that I can piss off people just like you! I mean, what are you gonna do then? Call the police? Seriously, GET OVER IT! And if you come and get in my face better keep it positive because I don't take to people getting worked up over silly petty stuff like this and I am not afraid of anyone! In fact, I am ready to die, so I will not be intimidated easily! You will just be making a spectacle of yourself at which point a whole lot of people will be staring at you. Heck maybe it will be what you really wanted all along!

My take on this entire discussion is that most of you all are insecure. A few of you are really rude and a few seem to have themselves together. If you don't like people staring at you then make yourself as close to the way everyone else looks as you can. That is, become a 'wallflower'. Some of you need to become introverts. And a couple of the responses I have read sound like people who might get hit a lot or just hated. What I want to know is how many of you who hate being stared at also wear really gaudy jewelery or cake on the makeup? If you are really animated that can attract a lot of attention as well. I see some people who just seem to dance their way through life.

i agree. I am 24 years old with 4 kids but I look younger then what I am. People look at me all the time and I hate it.

This bugs the life out of me, depending on my humour i would ask "whats the problem" this has brought some unwelcome remarks in the past but hay my tongue can sort this out, on the other hand people have become embarrassed and very sorry not realising.

Perhaps these people find you interesting either in a friendship context or more personal. Maybe you have that certain "something" that attracts people to you but they are not confident enough to approach you. People find it very hard to walk up to someone and say "I'd like to be your friend wanna be mine?" The sandbox when we were children was so much easier!
