Do you avoid looking attractive people on the street?

When I’m out and and I’m passing by an attractive girl, I try to make it seem like I don’t notice her or try to not stare at her, or if she’s passing near me and we lock eyes, I try to play it cool and make it seem like I was looking to other direction, like I don’t want to raise their ego more than it’s already is. Or it’s just me?

Nah man, I get what you mean. I try not to stare too obviously at girls I think are super hot when I'm out and about. I don't wanna be that creepy dude who's just leering at them, you know? It's a fine line though, 'cause you also don't wanna seem like you're completely ignoring them either.

I usually just try to glance over casually, maybe make eye contact for a second if we happen to catch each other's gaze. But I definitely avoid full-on staring or following them with my eyes as they walk by. Gotta keep it cool and not stroke their ego too much.

At the same time, I also don't wanna come across as standoffish or disinterested, so I make sure to at least give 'em a subtle smile or nod if we make eye contact. Just a little acknowledgement that I noticed them, but I'm not gonna go overboard with it.

It's all about finding that right balance, man. You don't wanna be a creep, but you also don't wanna seem completely unaffected. Gotta play it smooth, you feel me? Though honestly, sometimes it's hard not to just stare, 'cause there are some seriously good-looking girls out there. But self-control is key, dude.

It is just you. You might need some therapy sessions.

So do you just gawk at them?
