+1 yProbably because when you are caught staring, you don't know which person will stop first and you want to watch them stop but both of you want that so it becomes a competition to who will look away first which escalates an awkward situation the longer the stare lasts.

People are usually staring because they are enamored with something
being caught is embarrassing.
For example, admiring a girls fat ass. If caught looking can be catastrophically embarrassing for most.
Not me though, if there was a zoom in feature with my eyes id stare even harder10 Reply6.3K opinions shared on Other topic. that is whole other level of creepy... wow... that is when you go up to them and say do you like what you see, or something sarcastic to mess them up, you have to challenge them back, boys should not be ok with doing that crap
