Why do people stare at you for no reason?
When someone stares at you, they usually are wondering something! Like , I wonder where she bought that dress she is wearing? Or she has such beautiful blue eyes , I wonder should I complement her! A long time ago, a group of fellow employees were in a restaurant, People were looking and obviously talking about our group. I told another employee , I thought they were being rude. Well the person I said that too, got up an went over to the people that were staring. She politely said she seen them looking at us and was there something they were curious about. As it turns out they were curious as to where we worked , why we were at that restaurant etc...My friend said when someone stares , in Their mind they are asking a question! She is always polite but goes up and tries to satisfy their curiosity. I learned my lesson that day and I do the same now. Have made lots of friends this way! Sometimes the people are staring but their minds are 100 miles away on something they are thinking about! Sometimes when they get caught staring they are embarrassed and don't know how to act on you finding out! Don't take things to personally, happens to everyone!
Reasons for people staring at you?
This might sound like an odd question but I'm still going to ask it. Sometimes it happens that people stare at me and I don't mean the normal kind where you think of something else while accidentally staring at someone. I mean really STARE and often other people don't notice which I think is even more strange considering the fact that I definitely would have noticed if someone in my presence gazed intensely at someone else. Anyhow, I know I'm not making this up since I've had people with me at some of these strange occasions. Again, it's not the normal kind of staring. For example one mother seemed to forget about her kids on the parking lot and just stared at me, and then seemed to wait for me after she got in her car, to get ANOTHER look. One man driving completely turned away to look at me instead of at the road, and he didn't look at me like I was pretty, he looked at me with wide open eyes like the other woman. I can't tell if they were chocked, scared or angry. It just made me feel uncomfortable and scared. The people I was with also thought that these people acted strangely. But since it has happened multiple times I feel like I'm the problem. I don't look like a dangerous person. I get told that I look cute & innocent, so what do you think would be the reason for people looking at me like I'm an alien on this planet? I'm aware of that this sounds like a super ridicioulus question but I still wanted to see of anyone would have a good answer since this bothers me so.
What are the main reasons why people stare?
It's human nature to stare. In our culture it is considered rude, but not in all. Nor does every household raise children with the same attention to social etiquette. Also, fewer and fewer people care about what others may consider rude or insensitive these days. There are of course, other factors that cause this behavior, but the human instinct to observe (especially the face) is the dominant reason. Our desire to look at one another is a survival mechanism that goes back to times before vocalization was developed. We are a social species and our success relies on advanced interaction, the face speaks volumes.
What are your reasons for staring at people?
Well Id say the number one Answer for me is looks. Im not gay but if I see a gorgeous girl or guy I catch myself staring. Other women probably envy you and think only if I had that. But the other day I saw a big woman in the store and I was staring. Not so much because she was big. . . but because she had a really pretty face. Its like, I could see what she would look like if she was thin and I thought to myself there goes another me. People use to tell me I looked like a model until I gained alot of weight with age, children and so on. But I fealt like she was another one that was drop dead gorgeous at one time and now she is way over weight. She noticed that I had stared and I fealt bad. She must have been wondering why I was staring at her or took such a notice to her. If she would have asked I may have told her but then again I might have just apologized and said it was not for a bad reason. But she didnt ask. So I guess it just goes to show you dont know why people are looking but my best guess is that you are pretty and that is why. It does get uncomfortable and its uncomfortable when other women hate you because of your looks. They feel threat, envy, jelousy and it just brings up all these emotions in females that they dont want to face. Its silly really. Because it IS only skin deep. When I was at my best I met guys who were drop dead gorgeous. One of those guys was a brad pitt look alike and he turned out to be such a jerk. On the inside he is ugly as hell. Looks will only go so far. Looks are very very VERY shallow but for some people they never get to experience what its like to be gorgeous. Thats sad but at the same time it does have its perks. Then again it also has its downfalls. Such as putting up with jelousy, envy, even hate. It hurts because they cant get passed the outside to see whats on the inside. . . Isnt it ironic because ugly people say the same thing.
Why do I stare at people?
How on Earth could anyone else know why you stare at people?! What are you thinking when you stare at any particular person? Are you aware you're staring?Sometimes I catch myself totally “zoned” out, eyes wide open and staring at something without at all seeing it. It's unfortunate when it happens to be some strangers crotch, but despite how it seems, I am completely unaware of your zipper being down. I'm seeing inside my head, whatever dumb idea I'm having or reliving some memory or fantasizing about winning the lottery. Don't know what causes those moments (my mother once told me it was a form of epilepsy but she she also told me her prom date was a guy with no body). I think it mostly happens to everyone sometimes.If you are aware of your leering at people (their faces or crotches), stop it. Nobody likes being stared at unless it's by an ex you walk by and you know you are looking good these days.

What are the reasons for someone to keep staring at you?
It could be that they like you and they stare at you because they find you attractive. Perhaps there is something that they find interesting/fascinating about you. Sometimes people stare at other people because there may be something weird or odd about that particular person. It may be that you look similar to someone that they know or used to know so they stare at you because you remind them of that person. It could also be that they heard something about you (it could be something bad or good) which may cause them to stare at you in admiration if its something really good and if its something bad (shockingly bad and strange) they will also stare at you. Sometimes people stare at other people in order to intimidate them.
Why do people end up staring at another person?
As per a survey there's a six second rule, which states that if a person stares at another person for more than 6 seconds without flinching then he/she either feels lust for the other person or the urge to muder him/her.As per psychology, normally when humans are intensely thinking something then they fix their gaze at a single point. If someone tends to walk by at such a point, he feels that he is being stared at.Again, as per psychology, when you tend to obectify someone's looks, either because you find them beautiful or awe inspiring, you seem to stare.And, sometimes you find someone so different /weird/ beautiful / instigating that you start staring at them and forget yourself and objectify yourself. So staring is basically a projection of your thoughts into your brains. Different people stare for different, generatic a single reaction from the other party, the discomfort on being observed.

What is the psychological reason behind staring at people?
Hello Narendra! Thanks for the A2A.Glancing or looking at people around is natural, we do it all the time out of the curiosity to know who is around. Staring, however, is prolonged looking, and no one would invest the most precious resource we have - time - into someone else for no purpose.Intentional staring is usually done for the following reasons:To know the other in depth. Someone who is interested in knowing every nitty-gritty of another, for whatever reason, would stare. Many people often stare at a person they are meeting the first time for this reason. They want to size-up the other person before taking a decision to establish a relationship with him. If, however, a person keeps staring at you nearly all the time, he is exceptionally interested in your every move. The end purpose could be anything here - satisfaction of deep curiosity, desire to imitate you, desire to find material to gossip about you, romantic interest in you, etc.To challenge the other person. Some people love to play the ‘Who will blink first?’ game to feel a sense of power over the other person. Its analogous to having the last word in an argument. Such people feel that by virtue of staring longer, they have proved that they are more courageous than the other person.To provoke the other person. Some people who wish to vent out their frustration on another, but have no courage to do so directly i.e. those who want to fight, but not take the blame of the fight, will perform indirect tactics to provoke the other - one of which is staring. Since staring makes the uncomfortable, and is very rude and offensive by nature, the other is bound to get upset about it. Then, if he takes an objection, the person staring can claim that he was ‘dragged’ into a fight by denying that he was staring at the person. Staring can be easily denied for other people around won’t know it was happening. (Believe it or not, there really are people who have the time and energy to engage in such pettiness.)Unintentional staring, which occurs rarely, happens for the following reason:Capture of attention by an outstanding stimulus - A person wearing very bright fluorescent clothes, someone howling in the neighbourhood, the entry of a person not expected in a party, etc. are all stared at because humans are tuned to devote attention to stimuli that are distinct, more details of which are found in the theory of evolution.
