would not call this a pet peeve but it is annoying. My son and daughter and i were in a restaurant for lunch. I glanced toward the end of the restaurant and noticed this man sitting alone was staring at me. I tried and ignored it  and not look toward him but everytime I glanced in that direction there he was still staring. made me nervous so i moved further in my booth so I could not see him. maybe he could still see me. when we left he was still staring and gave  me a scathing look.as if I was the one staring at him, have no idea what his problem was. but is sure is unsettling when a stranger is cleary staring. one reason I hate about eating in public. I try and not look in any direction even taking my glasses off to not see faces. some people are just rude or need something else to do.

  I'm guilty of staring too much.  I was looking at this girl at school.  She had long, dark hair and the most beautiful perfect blend of blue-green eyes I had ever seen.  She was White Cleopatra and she didn't even have to wear mascara.  I kept staring at her talking to her friends. 

Eventually, she turns to me and says, "Why are you staring at me, you freak?!"  I didn't know what to say.  I just thought she was beautiful.  I opened my mouth and shut it, then looked away.  Her friend was nicer and said, "I think it's your eyes.  Your eyes are really big and colorful."  Thank God for that friend.  At least she didn't think I was a freak.  But later she passed me in the hall and said she thought I was a lesbian.  Nice! 

There's a co worker that does this to me.  She stares at my outfir from top to bottom and doesn't say anything.  Weird because I get the feeling she wants me to know she is judging my clothing by staring.

I have had this happen to me, and it gives me a very uneasy feeling, especially when I'm at a restaurant trying to eat.  Makes me feel like I've got spinach in between my teeth, or something.

Take a picture, it will last you longer!

Glancing is one thing, but staring a hole is quite another. It makes me feel somewhat uneasy. I almost have the urge to buy a camera, hand it to the person who's staring, and say, "Why don't you take a picture? It'll last longer." If that doesn't stop them, nothing will.

Creepy.  Especially if they don't blink.  This one always weirds me out.
