I’ve looked at him multiple times for ten minutes and he’s always staring. He’s an employee (probably manager, given his age) so I can’t even complain.

    I have a tendency to zone out for a while then come to and realize that I've been unknowingly making eye contact with someone for heaven only knows how long. I wonder how many people I've creeped out like that in my lifetime. If I was just a little more extroverted, I'd tell people, "sorry, I'm a space cadet, not a creep. I promise." They would probably find that reassuring and not at all also creepy!

      Yeah, I can relate to that. I zone out a lot.

      Mood. I had a girl ask me out once after she noticed me staring at her. But she just sat in front of the wall I was staring at lmao

        Haha oh no--but hey, at least she was flattered! I don't think any stranger has tried to talk to me after making unconscious eye contact, so you're doing better than I am.
