Do people stare at you?

Post Reply New Topic

Yeah, I get stared at sometimes. Not too often, though.

I've adopted a habit of one of my former classmates and wave at someone happily if it is obvious that someone is staring at me (not the plant behind me, not my book, etc.) and it is excessive. It tends to make the person feel uncomfortable. You could try it, it's fun.

Dude, even if your AS is incredibly mild, it's STILL noticeable to most NTs.

Pay it no mind. Let 'em stare. They'll be starin' at ya plenty in 20 years, when yer worth billions, and making business speeches that are being broadcast on the ol' boob tube!

I'm stared at constantly...but I'm living in Japan and am one of three foreigners in my entire city.

God...I SOOOO badly want to make a racially insensitive joke to that one...but I don't want to get banned!! !! !! !!

Haha, that sounds like such a good idea, if I had the confidence, I would so do it.

I actually do that sometimes, but I have to be in a REALLY jovial mood for it. I won't wave at them...but I will give them the "wink and the gun". It's so cheezy, it makes the whole situation seem hilarious.

True that, but the first bit, they notice? aaaaaah noooo and I'm like the mildest of the mild too. *gets paranoid*

Yes, if you can manage to look at them they will leave you alone.
I know an aspie who stares but it affects me different its rather more like a cat gaze which i have no problem with at all.

i do not know if the people-in-the-street (the pits) stare at me because i usually look at the ground or at inanimate things.
i am impervious to "vibes", so i never "feel" if anyone is looking at me.

if i am in company with someone at the tavern (the pub where i eat dinner), they often tell me that people were staring at me after we leave.

i ask them why they think people were staring at me and they do not know why.
we worked out that it could possibly be my appearance and manner.

appearance:
i have an unusual hairstyle i suppose. i have a fringe that is cut just above my eyebrows and is very straight. most men do not have fringes.
also, my hair covers my ears completely. it is a bit longer than collar length but not very long. i am told it is like an olden days "page boy" hair style, and i am sometimes called "little lord fauntleroy" as a joke.
someone else said i had a hair cut like the beatles.
people like to point out things that are not usually seen.

manner:
a youth and his friends a few weeks ago came to the bar beside me (i was getting a lemon squash for my dinner and he was drunk and getting "quick f*ck" liqueur shots).

he was laughing at me and looked at my hair and sang "hey hey we're the monkeys". i said "who? you and your friends?".
i walked away back to my table and i did not look back, but my friend told me they were staring at me most of the time we were there eating.
people may be left disgruntled in my wake i suppose, because i say my comment and then i depart without waiting for a reply.

----------

a girl at work once stared at me a lot behind my back. (i was later told by other staff)
she had some mental problem i am sure. she used to laugh hysterically at things i did that were insignificant.

at the time, i did not know she was staring at me all the time. i would be going about my affairs, and then i would hear her suddenly shriek with laughter from her desk and i would spin around and see her looking directly at me. i could not determine what it was that made her laugh.

i do not really care if people stare at me as long as they have no malice in mind.
apart from that, they are just brains in skulls that see what ever trivia they wish to focus on.

I haven't noticed people staring at me, but then again, I don't look at people more than is necessary (necessary= enough so that I don't walk into them).

Someone walked upto me and look straight into my face really close a few days ago and didn't go until i looked up a bit.

OH... I wish they would stare at me! Girls dont even notice me hahaha

I can go out the entire week and count on my fingers of one hand the times someone stared at me, and it is usually kids . I think they find me scary or something!


I'm a bit fascinated by human behaviour so, this is the reason why I noticed all this as I have the tendency to analyze the behaviour of everyone.

I don't know why they do it, but they do it to me too.

I wonder why it is they stare. I used to say, "Why don't you take a picture it would last longer!" I went out of my way to memorize comebacks I heard on sitcoms or from the people at school then I would repeat them whenever the situation called. I might have even cursed. But there's no point in pissing them off so now I just smile at them unless I don't even want to look their way in the first place.

I haven't a clue. I don't pay enough attention, and probably wouldn't notice if they were, unless the staring took place in a context that forced me to make prolonged eye contact with the perpetrator.

I don't know if people stare at me or not. If they do, it's probably mostly when I'm not looking. One thing I have noticed though is that a lot of people smile at me. Even people I don't know. It's wierd, it's mostly females that do this (females of all ages, too). I might take on glance at a woman, most of the time I'm not even interested in her, she just happens to be right in front of me. But then she looks at me and then smiles. I'm not sure why this happens, or whether it is good or bad.
