Do you stare at people?

I don't stare at people. I find it kinda creepy. If I see a particularly good looking guy, I might do a quick double-take, but I don't stare. I hate being stared at. It's awkward and uncomfortable. So I try not to stare at anyone else for that very reason.

That being said, I have zoned out in the general direction of someone before, which ended similarly to me giving them a very blank stare for a while. Apparently it was rather creepy.

There's a guy at work with amazing arms... We're talking arms like Chris Hemsworth as Thor.
How anyone could not stare I have no idea. When he catches me he just laughs and flexes his muscles, then I get embarrassed and have to go make a cup of tea.

But apart from that I don't really stare.

If I notice someone I don't know staring at me I stare directly back at them and see how long it takes them to look away. I like to remind people that others can see what they're looking at.

Beyond that, I try not to stare because it bothers me when I'm the one being stared at. But there times when I can't help myself, even then I make sure I'm not noticed though.

I make it a point not to stare at people, simply because I find it unpleasant when others stare at me. I make extra effort not to stare at good looking girls. Not that I don't look, I just try to be discreet about it.

I tend to stare a lot. For a large variety of reasons. Though often its because I just zone out.

My brain runs on dial up at times.

Usually if there was an attractive woman that catches my eye I would stare for a few seconds. I try not to do so for too long as I don't want to be rude.

Not really... when talking to people, I tend to watch their mouths... I'm odd like that...

My glance flits about for the most part, and it'll settle on things/people repeatedly but only for a couple seconds before I glance at something else.

If I 'stare' at anyone, it'll be less staring and more either scowling or glaring.

I throw quick glances at people I find attractive, but I don't hold the gaze for like 5 seconds or whatever constitutes staring, it's rather rude and to be honest I don't really like people or drawing attention to myself, so I strive to avoid staring to remain inconspicuous.

Actually, I do that quite a bit on the bus. Pretty awkward, kind of hard to explain yourself in that situation.

I don't tend to stare at people as i do indeed find it impolite as there are some people who don't like to be randomly stared at even if i glance a nice woman or guy i won't stare for long periods of time unless i am talking to them.

Huh? Sorry, did you say something?
Oh! I mean, er, no! I wouldn't stare; it's impolite.

I try not to stare too often, but I zone out a lot. I zone out more than what should be normal, sometimes I zone out while I'm looking in someones direction and if I don't catch myself I will end up staring at them for extended periods of time.

I rarely look people in the eye for a second, let alone stare at them.

I feel weird looking at people.

Quite the opposite, I generally don't even look at other people. Unless I'm talking to them, of course.

I stare way too much... But only if people aren't noticing.

Durring my time at my school, where i study 3d graphics, I've grown into a bad habbit of staring at people, not just atractive females (easiest thing to find ref pictures for ojnline anyways) but anything, especially people moving in ways i'd like to replicate through animation.
Sometimes i end up looking like some retard in the train, looking at my own hands, like i just discovered some weird thing called fingers...

Not as a rule, no, because it's rude. The exception would be if something truly unusual and/or unbelievable is going on; I've seen people throw hissy fits in the store, for example, and yes, I watch them as they freak out.

I have a personal rule to not stare at strangers, not even hot women. Because i know if i were a woman i'd be creeped out by that.

I tend to look instensively at people when we talk though, serious talk that is. Its just a good way to show that you are paying attention.

I tend to stare into oblivion when I'm daydreaming, but not at people. one time I couldn't help it. That girl had such beautiful eyes. Honestly, my heart missed a beat, it was as if I was looking at a piece of art.
