Most everyone says that they like to people watch.

It's impolite to stare.

Ogling is just creepy. I learned in my 20s to pick
a point on the forehead and concentrate (like she wore
that blouse so I would notice her shoes).

Don't need to do the forehead trick anymore. Don't get
me wrong, still a big fan...just age and impulse control
I guess.

Sometimes (say at a restaurant) when someone walks, you'll
look. If they are attractive your significant other might
say, Geez...stare a little longer.

YOU WERE JUST LOOKING!

watching, looking, noticing, staring, ogling, gazing,
rubbernecking, gawking, glowering


Is there some kind of rule, time limit, and variable depending on who you are with?

Is there a fine line between people watching and acting like a total

A quick glance is fine, lingering is creepy, unless you come forward and offer some light chatter.....

I like being looked at, and I like looking at people, but lingering can spell trouble for the person being looked at, or even for the one looking....

Keep it simple, a quick glance, make up your mind, and then approach!

***ONLY IF that person your staring at is alone though

Well if you're drooling while looking that could be bad
Golden rule is'look but don't touch' when u trust the one ur with why worry?

I'm a voyeur. I like to watch.

"about" 10 years ( and pounds) ago I would get the long stare with the "doome eyes" while walking the boardwalk.

I kind of liked it.

Perhaps there is a double standard. I think if I were to do that, it would evoke more fear or annoyance than flattery.

Never follow them to their car.

Always wear sunglasses.

I used to get those looks too. As I get older, I become more oblivious to such things.

Either that, or I just don't get those looks anymore.

I just am careful where in San Francisco I walk.

that's when sunglasses come in handy.

same reply as the "sex in public" thread.......

Watch out for George Michael or some Freak Senator near public restrooms

Guess we should feel fortunate that at least we are too old for Michael Jackson.

Some......at some point....are better left unseen
