Boy keeps staring and it's driving me nuts

I guess it would annoy me too. Have you thought about telling him OP?

I don't think I could cope with the awkward consequences of that! I have been tempted though.

We all do a bit of looking if we see someone we like, that's perfectly normal. I do it myself. But this boy in uni keeps staring at me, and not only does it make me a little uncomfortable, but it's getting on my nerves.

It started off in September, where we'd both be waiting for the same train to uni. Out of the corner of my eye I could just see him looking at me. Didn't really bother me at first, but he does it every single time. When you're being watched constantly it makes you a little self-conscious you know? And every time I'll board the train, he's always waiting behind me to get on the same carriage. A couple of times I'd even go towards another carriage to see if he'd follow and low and behold, he does.

And then, I'd occasionally see him in the uni library. And the same thing, every time, he'd stare. I was recently sat on the computer in the library and he was a few rows in front, and he'd frequently turn in his chair to glance back at me. Before I was sat facing him a few rows down, and he'd be craning his neck in his seat to look at me. It's distracting. And now I swear I'm seeing him more and more frequently in the library. I work in the library in the mornings and I swear it's getting to the point where more and more he's there too. Staring as I pass him.

And now when I catch him staring, he gives this ingratiating big smile, and it really annoys me. I just look away straight away, but I'm wondering whether he just thinks I'm shy. I don't want to be rude and frown at him, but at the same time this is getting pretty annoying. He probably thinks I'm into him too because I occasionally glance to see if he's still staring...Am I overreacting TSR or would this slightly annoy you too?

He's not ugly, but this behaviour just makes him unattractive and borderline creepy.

There's nothing awkward about it.

A lot of guys at my sixth form do that to me, but I'm a bit stupid and decide to put my middle finger up instead of telling them its uncomfortable.

So just talk to him then, whats the big deal?
Unless he's creepy.

You have to realise that you have to be looking at him to know he's looking at you. So you're looking at him for the same amount of time or longer to know that he is looking at you so much. He is probably creeped out too.

That's the thing though, it's socially acceptable to an extent to do that as a sixth former. But I'm in my final year of uni, I'm 23 this year. It's just quite immature.

Because I don't know the guy, he's not on my course, he's probably not in my year.

I can't go up to someone and say "stop staring please", it's not very nice and plus it'll make me feel very uncomfortable.

Have you not been blessed with peripheral vision? Or you only aware of what's in your focal vision? I'm pretty sure that's a condition.

He probably masturbates to the thought of you

Didn't you do that at Taylors concert bro?

You can't tell if someone is looking directly at you through your peripheral vision, you seem paranoid and if you *THINK* he's looking at you you will assume that he is.
