Eye games

You look at them, when they turn to see you looking at them, you look away.
They look at you, when you turn to see them looking at you, they turn away.

You think they are looking at you, they are.
They think you are looking at them, you are.

You look at them, they turn to see you looking at them, they turn away.
They look at you, you turn to see you looking at them, they turn away.

Does anyone play do this? Is this just some game? Maybe it sounds common, but what happens if you realise your doing it. You just do it even more and more until, hey, too many times, this cant be a game???

Anyone know what Im saying? lol

Yeah mind games are fun... but they get so frustrating!

A good tip if you're not sure whether the other person is looking at you is to yawn (not very attractive I know) and if they yawn back you know they're watching you! It's basically impossible not to yawn if you see someone else doing it...

Yeah, anyway, that's my random contribution of the day over. x

I gawk at people without realising it :|

I'm also uberparanoid that people look at me for the wrong reasons [spinach in my hair, pen on my face, etc etc]

I'm exactly the same, except I do realise it, to the extent tha I sit at the back of lectures because watching everyone is more amusing than the lecturer.

Paranoia about toothpaste is the worst, if I brush my teeth then go straight out then everytime anyone looks at me I have to wipe around my lips for fear of there being toothpaste remnants. Very odd. Recently on the way back from a job interview walking through town in a suit I had a such a sufficiently larger than normal number of people seemingly looking at me that I had to stop and check in a mirror that my hair wasn't on fire or something.

[spinach in my hair]

Most people keep it on their teeth - but in the hair - that's novel! ^_^

When I like someone I tend to avoid making eye contact with them! It's not a good idea really.

I must admit lessthanthree, I thought you had dark green hair all this time; now I realise it's just spinach.
