Look away and then look back. I stare. I can't help it, if it is a woman I find pleasing to the eye. I can be as bad as a 13 year old boy. I just can't help it, I don't do it consciously at first but sometimes I do become aware that I'm staring at some woman's breasts and I try to stop, but any time my eyes are in the vicinity I lock on.  |

Dammit, I always get caught staring.
My gaze must be too intense or something. |

My reaction is to suddenly look past them or start waving at an invisible fly in my face. Sometimes I am able to muster up a smile. |

It depends. If I'm single, I'll smile and/or continue looking at them. But since I'm married, I'll probably look away for a bit and then look again. I love good scenery. I've been known to thank a good-looking man for giving me something nice to look at. |

Give them a small smile. |

I think the natural inclination is to look away. That's what I used to do until I read something once, years ago, that suggested you should smile, and why.
Last night I was in the situation described. I was riding home from a shopping excursion after work. When I got on the train, I noticed a very attractive woman so I sat where I could admire her, just a little behind and across the aisle. When I got up to disembark, I was still looking at her and now she looked right back at me. I smiled, and as I left the train she gave me a great big beautiful smile right back! I felt my heart melt in my chest.
Good advice from that thing I read!  |

Give them a smile..maybe even tell them why I was staring...why not.. Its a compliment. I saw a movie recently that had this situation in it and I am sooo going to steal the idea.. Lets got from the other angle.. the person being stared at..most of the time when the person looks away they tend to also.. So in this movie the guys is staring at her and she catches him, and he looks away in that i was scanning the room sense of trying to cover...But she keeps a gaze on him and catches him when he looks back...I thought that was sooooo funny. |

I'm not a people watcher. I don't stare at people. |

This could never happen to me....it's more likely to happen if the person was really ugly. Sounds awful, I know, but it's true. In that case, I'd do a non-verbal acknowledgement (facial only) and move on. |

I do not stare at anyone. If someone is staring at someone, and that someone catches them, the starer always looks away. Double or triple takes are more my style. |

I would give him a big smile and turn my head and stare right back at him if he is cute and handsome looking, and I would flirt with him |

Always? Did you read my post? |

Either look away or don't look back, unless I'm feeling unusually predatorial, in which case I keep staring. Fun to see how it freaks people out. |

I just love it when some cute and handsome gentleman looks my way and he stares at me, and then I stare at him which is fun and I flirt with him |

It depends on why I'm staring. If it's someone handsome I will just give the person a big ol' smile. If I'm staring for some other reason, probably just look away and don't look back. |

I'd give them a smile and then try and start a conversation with them. |

Quickly look away.. then look back a few seconds later to realise they're still looking at me like I'm a wierdo so look away some more and carry this on for a bit while looking like a beetroot. |

It really depends on the situation.
Just today I was caught staring. She stared back and there was a 'special moment'. I felt it in my stomach. But I went on buying coriander. |

Some times whenever I stare, on rare occasions, it's only wherever I've actually caught some one stare and it's usually an evil glair. |

Boy, if I'm looking at a man that sparks my interest, I sure as hell don't look away if he returns my gaze!
And a smile sure lets him know I find him attractive!
I mean, isn't that what it's all about? |
