Checking people out & being checked out.

I honestly don't mind being checked out. And to be fair, i say that because i don't often do and when i do, i barely even notice it haha.

I check people out really subtly, but tbf i have to because when i'm with my 2 best mates, they are the least discreet people in the world and if they saw me checking some guy out, they would tell them that i was checking them out lol.

 

You haven't posted a poll?
I try to be subtle but a lot of the time I think you want them to notice. And I've actually never noticed myself being checked out before

 

hahah cheeers... didn't realise you could post it after the OP haha

 

I am very open about checking "people" out.

A quick check-up and is fine with me, but I'm respectful enough to make eye-contact the second it would turn into staring. Eye-contact also determines if I'll take things further, and apparently, it's my most effective weapon of seduction. :lol:

I don't mind being checked out myself at all.
They can look at me, stare at me, eat me up with their eyes, I don't mind.

Hey, where's the poll option for bold people like me?

 

Oh god I am terrible when it comes to eye contact because the moment I try to give a quick glance to someone, it feels as if it's like 10 seconds. I've been practicing my facial expressions though because I'm really terrible at making a good poker face.

There was this one time where I was walking along near the hospital building and as I look through my left I spotted a really cute police guy and he saw me looking at him and he smiled at me so awkwardly turned to my right but oh god I pretty much wanted to die during that day.

 

Haha, I've done this too.

I tend to turn around pretending I heard something behind me and during the turn around, I'll quickly glance. Then on the turn back, I'll get a second glance.
Unless they're in front of me and facing away...

 

I do that.
And my body goes into some busted autopilot mode while my eyeballs gawk. So if someone were to to ask me the time, I'd reply that I was allergic to shrimp. Or I'd be stuck pulling a push door and not even realize.

Oh and I assume everyone looking at me is talking smack.

 

I actually just look at them once and then look away, but they'll be in my mind for a while.

As for getting checked out, that's not exactly my cup of tea. I don't want to be 'checked out'. That seems to be undesirable, for some strange reason. I'd just prefer if they came up to me and became my friend.

 

I check people out by pretending to scan the area because I'm a very shy person. If I see a cute girl and our eyes actually meet I almost panic and look away fast. As for me being checked out..I have never noticed anyone checking me out before and if they looked like they were looking at me I would assume they were looking at someone beside me lol

 

I love it when people catch me looking, because I won't break eye contact. I used to, but I've gotten better -- a lot of forcing myself, and a lot more practice. Most will look at me for a moment, then eventually break the eye contact. The few brave souls who don't break eye contact, I tend to do the finger point and wink ("the gun" as they call it), at which point they either smile/laugh, or just shake their head. If it's the former, I make conversation. If it's the latter, I kind of chide them for being too hip for my lame ass gesture. This usually gets them open to conversation.

Now, in the rare event somebody just stuns me, by their presence, I'll play Metal Gear and go special ops. But, after I've cooled off, I'll go to what I mentioned above.

I've had too many What if I didn't look away?/What if I did talk to them? moments, and I refuse to let that happen again.

 

Oh, I'm super sneaky. I keep the glances short, randomly timed ,and worthwhile. If I am caught, I do keep looking... just past them as if I were staring at something in the distance. If they do look, I won't do it again. Game over.

I like it when there are windows around so I can look in the reflection without actually looking. Oh man... typing this out... I'm a creep. I'm just gonna own it.

And the other part... people don't check me out. If they did, I'd be flattered.

 

I love having reflective lenses on my sunglasses, they come in handy for looking at cute guys with no one noticing. If I don't have them, I just stick to quick glances.

 

I feel so lonely up there in that poll.... won't anybody leer at/with me?

(Not -exactly- what I do, but the most suitable substitute out of the poll choices)

 

I try to keep it subtle, if he looks right at me I'll pretend I'm just looking around. As far as being checked out, not quite as subtle, I start blushing and have to cover my face somehow.
