Have any of you ever encountered this situation before? I seem to encounter it quite often. I'm standing in line at a store, or sitting at the bar, and from across the room I catch someone staring at me - maybe it's my odd appearance?
Instead of brushing it off, I stare right back at them, making eye contact. At this point it becomes pretty stand-offish, which is bizarre, because the person is a complete stranger. But I feel like, if they're staring right at me, I'm allowed to stare right back at them.
It either continues for an uncomfortable amount of time before one of us looks away, or has sometimes led to verbal confrontation.
Maybe it's normal to get stared at, and I'm over reacting? Is it just me?
