Guys, What to do when a guy obviously is checking me out?

[Carinna23]

This happens mostly when I'm doing a line to pay something at the store, pharmacy, or doing my daily activities.

Men tend to look for my face, sometimes it's just staring. Others it's obviously looking at my eyes. I'm clumsy when it comes to this and try to ignore it.

Guys are you aware of how uncomfortable this is?

What are you thinking when this happens is it intentional?

Its mostly like being in an art gallery though sometimes i am looking and thinking wow that girl is beautiful etc perhaps something darker but thats not very likely.

I might not even be aware of what / who i am looking at, i might be off in my head thinking about whatever and my eyes are just on auto pilot.

I see, and try to understand by "trying to feel flattered". Yet again I wonder what's behind in their head. I mean do you want me to do a sign with a hand. I try to smile sometimes but last time it went worse. I think they misinterpreted it as if I'm flirting.

I dont know what to say really, its problem i know, it must suck to draw so much attention all the time.

I do it all the time but i dont mean to make you uncomfortable and Im probably not thinking anything.

I should probably say something more often than i do but that seems worse than just looking, it seems like i would definitely be bothering the person then, she just wants to buy bread and milk maybe she has a boyfriend or already or isn't interested or we wouldn't get on.

After all every relationship I've had has ended so why would i think that another would work out?

I dont really think about it, mostly women are just like the furniture of the outside world, not really different from looking at the trees or listening to birds singing?

What do you want me to do?

Ask you out?

Fuck off and die somewhere?

The problem really is that women often do want attention but they expect only the guys they are interested in to look at them and life obviously just doesn't work like that.

Honestly it doesn't cross our minds that it might be making you uncomfortable, we think we're showing interest or, just doesn't cross our minds at all. But if you like it/them, give them a nice smile. Chances are they are just admiring you and your beauty. But if you have no interest (to avoid the possible approach), then just simply try to ignore them, or give a brief smile and move on.

typically thats us shy guys hoping you will acknowledge us. we have some idea of it maybe being discomforting to you. do you realize how uncomfortable we are because being shy leaves us with stuff like this being the most we can normally do?

[Carinna23]

Last time it happened I think the guy wanted to be "evident" I felt just weird, and even tried to hide a bit. As silly as might sound.

[magiusX26]

to be fair. when i do it, i try not to stare and usually am looking away (hopefully before being seen looking). i know that sounds bad but if we dont we usually get some form of negative comments said.

[magiusX26]

and sometimes its just appreciation for her looking nice or good then moving on too

most of the time i am in a store and do that (85% of the time roughly) am also working to pay for crap like bills.

I don't know if they aren't like getting in your face and stuff I don't know if it would be reasonable to get them into trouble.
