Today, while riding the train home, I noticed a man who kept looking at me. Annoyed, I told him to be less obvious and to stop staring. He promptly responded, "Bitch, I'm gay, and even I can tell no one would want to look at you." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was riding on my usual bus, when I noticed a man staring at me. I was having a really bad day, and said "Can you please stop staring at me?" He then replied with "I'm just trying to look out the window, and your head is in the way. Don't flatter yourself." FML
Today, at the supermarket, a guy started yelling at me for staring at his "woman." She frankly looked like someone had carved Mick Jagger's face into a turd. When I told him I have better things to do than ogle random women, he started harassing me for being "a queer." FML
Today, I took the subway. The man sitting across from me would not stop staring at my breasts, so when the train came to my stop, I said, "Nothing to see now, asshole." Then I noticed his white walking stick as he got up to get off. He was blind. FML
Today, on the train, a man kept grabbing my crotch. When I told him to stop, I got yelled at for harassing an elderly man. FML
Today, I was on a train when an old man standing next to me very obviously checked me out, caught my eye, and winked. He spent the next five minutes rubbing his penis against my leg. When I turned to tell him off, the train lurched, and the old man fell face first into my breasts. FML
Today, I was riding the train home, and I sat in the row in front of a homeless woman. I noticed an old man staring at me. I got off the train after a long 6 stops, and the old man who had been staring at me walks up to me and say,s "The lady behind you was flicking lice onto you the whole time." FML
Today, I tried to secretly take a photo of a cute guy on the train. I forgot my flash was on. He looked straight at me, smirked, and said, “If you wanted my picture, you could’ve just asked.” I got off three stops early. FML
Today, I saw an unbelievably cute guy. He caught my eye and began to walk towards me. I adjusted myself and flashed him a smile. He came up to me, smiled back, and said "Hi, do you have a minute for gay rights?" FML
Today, I went on a busy train. I packed myself in close to a very good looking woman and, too scared to say anything, looked out the window. After feeling a hand on my ass, I assumed it was her. To not ruin the moment, I didn't look back. After a few stops, I looked back. It was an old man. FML
Today, a man on the subway serenaded me. That's not the issue. He was cross-eyed, making it hard for me not to laugh in his face. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

1, it does get annoying when someone stares for a long time. It's quite creepy actually.

Another YDI in the category of: It's not all about you. Self-centered much?

Unless the guy is good looking, then it's just flattering. ;)
MuseFan1991 14
21- i just stare back
apollojon 11
30, since when were good looking guys allowed to stare and less attractive guys not? I like your logic....
AllegroRubato 16
49 - Not MY logic. I'm just pointing out a double standard. "Creepy behaviour" is a subjective category. We like it when people we consider attractive pay attention to us, but when it's people we don't consider attractive we call them "creepy". Don't take it so seriously, it's just one of those things we people do.

Any guys who constantly stare at me without ever saying a word are scary as **** to me. I'm like can I make it to my car without you coming up behind me? Where's a cop when you need one? Put the damn doughnut down and HELP!
JackFaire 27
Uhm yeah I am going to have to point out that many, many guys will whip out the "bitch I am gay card" after being caught staring at a girl and getting rejected in the same breath to mask their own embarrassment and turn it around on her it's doubtful the guy was actually gay.
MyUsernameKatie 31
Wow 112, paranoid much? Also, don't be so disrespectful. "Put the damn doughnut down..." Shut the hell up. If that's your attitude towards cops, you deserve to fend for yourself. You know where all the cops are? At work. Not with their families. I hardly ever see my dad on weekdays or weekends, and holidays, forget it. You know how many Christmases I've had with my dad? 2. Thanksgivings? 1. And he's never around on New Years because of drunk drivers and trouble makers. Rarely does he have my birthday off, and when he does, he's still on call. He always is. Yea, I know it seems like I'm over reacting, but I can't stand people disrespecting cops, even if they were trying to be funny. He's never home because he has to protect jack offs like you, who probably calls them pigs too. You asking for their help while insulting them is ****** up.

jeez.. what a douche.. either way he shouldn't be staring like that.
Puffytruffles 18
So from your logic, avoid looking at ANYONE wherever you go? Stupid.
Harpy20 24
How is he a douche for not letting her be a bitch to him? He probably wasn't even looking at her.
malkavian_mad 13
Sometimes people just stare out into space while sitting on trains or busses, ans it can look like they are staring, are all of them douches too?

Staring is not looking at someone for a moment. I hate it when people stare at me and for as far as I know no one likes to be stared at. And with staring I mean staring for longer than 5 seconds or so. I am really surprised that this isn't considered rude or creepy here, because I definitely consider it rude to stare at someone for a longer period of time. It makes me feel horribly uncomfortable. I mean, why would someone just stare at you? If they are interested, why don't they approach you and if they are not, why are they staring at you? I'm talking about situations where it isn't hard to avoid looking at someone, of course.
kristabelli 19
Wow. I'm kind of surprised by the attitudes on here. If I see someone staring at me, I always just smile at them! They almost always smile back, and voila, you've had a really nice moment/connection with someone. Plus, I always consider that you might look like someone they know or they might think they know you.
SillyGirl4602 23
I agree that staring can get annoying but like 44 said, he may have just been spacing out. What if he wasn't even staring at her? He was a bit harsh in his response but she came off as a bitch as well.
GothickNihilist 15
Honestly it can be very creepy when people randomly look at you. This is a YDI for assuming .Judging by your username, I see that you have figured that out.
LunaaBluee 27
So umm.. Are we suppose to walk with our eyes closed then ?? It's when someone is clearly starring that's uncomfortable
MakeTodayADTR 20
I'm pretty sure he was just making sure you weren't a mugger :P
feedelcashtro 3
I'm pretty sure the man was just staring because he can. He doesn't need a reason to stare.. If I wanted to check if someone was a mugger, I wouldn't stare at them....

#5 made a FML reference.

You cant say hi or make eye contact with some people without them thinking your hitting on them.
taranpreet 7
Yeah eye contact and a hi is one thing, but staring is not normal behavior people should assume is just being polite. I get stares from males and females all the time and it irritates me to the core. Take a picture.
tweetbaby14 18
I highly doubt people stare at you as often as you claim unless you're doing something to purposely attract their attention. People won't sit and give one person all their attention without a good reason, excluding trolls their whole existence is reasonless.
Slimma 20
People need to learn to ease up. I mean it is just a look. Egos need to be busted like this sometimes. Just because someone is looking in your direction doesn't mean they are eying you or wanting to be with you. Sometimes they are just... looking.
CharresBarkrey 16
I know sometimes I've caught myself zoning out, completely in my head thinking off in space, while staring at someone or something inappropriate.
Enslaved 38
Next time, try to stay on track and don't lose your train of thought. (:
Pyapi 20
#13, I can't even count how many times that has happened to me. Nothing's more embarrassing than realizing you have been staring at someone for around 5 minutes because you were zoning out and that the person you were staring at actually noticed
EpicSquishii 21
You handled your irritation at least as bitchily as he did. I feel like you were juat as wrong for assuming he wanted your crotchy regions and trying to embarrass him for it in public. YDI
cp399 14
YDI for assuming he was looking at you and calling him out for it. FYL for having to deal with such a rude asshole.
Hillaryy789 9
Well, which one did you want? For him to be less obvious about his staring or for him to stop?

You should apply water to that burn.

Probably going to get downvoted for this, but I can sympathise with OP. Sometimes, especially if you've had a bad day, the feeling that someone is looking at you can just make you feel really uncomfortable, to the point that you just want to yell at the person and make them stop. OP should perhaps have been a little more delicate in her wording, but I can understand the frustration that could have prompted her to say it.
