Does anyone else get people staring at them for no apparent and obvious reason? Does anyone else tell other people and they either say no theyre not /no we're not, or youre being paranoid?
Is it some kind of underlying thing that people think theyre allowed to stare at you when you appear quiet/shy? Is it connected to stereotypes and judgemental opinions of quiet people that people have in their heads? ie what the media throws at then so thats the only thing they can believe and arent able to stretch their mind? (ie theyre convinced quiet people dont live adequate and normal lives and they certainly dont seem to realise they they know exactly what judgements and generalisations theyre assuming about them.)
What are peoples opinions on this? As a believer in Buddhist teachings and philosophy I just see everyone as completely equal and like to act kind towards people and even try to understand unpleasantness and tolerate ignorance and differences.
What do other people think?
Thanks.
