Were you just jealous another woman got the attention and not you?
Wow! Just wow.

Would you want to make contact? Most people are too shy for that. And most women would be creeped out (unnecessarily).

Why are they creeped out? If a man saw you, and this is the only chance he has to see you (and then you will be out of his life forever possibly), why shouldn't he make a few moments last as long as possible?

yes, it's not a form to stare or to follow, but think of a person who liked you and is going to lose you in the next moment forever.... such a shame

i wish the form was that people were allowed to exchange email addresses and start writing to each other and getting to know each other, rather than simply passing by their chances...
Men are not entitled to have every women they walk across that they find comely to be their entertainer. What if she walks away? That's because she does not know or want to know you.

One time I was at the grocery store early in the morning. Very few people in there. I noticed this guy and then I saw him hovering near a woman and playing with his cell phone. I assumed they were a couple becasue I saw them in the same scenario once or twice more, including in the check-out line. They left separately.

Question for men, have you had women follow you around?
Following a woman around in a store cannot/is not a good way to elicit her attention. A respectful smile or a simple "good morning" will most likely get you further, or at its least, it will suffice.

This has happened to my GF twice since we've been together. She is naturally pretty, and hard not to notice, even when dressed in loose sweats. It creeps her out and scares her.

Last year a guy followed her around, precisely in the supermarket. He had the nerve of asking if she shopped there often with no form of introduction. She ignored him. He then followed her into the parking lot. She noticed the guy as she placed the groceries in the trunk. She pulled out her cellphone to call me. They guy turned and left when he saw her pull out her phone. Creepy.

The guy follows you because he has this amazing conversation scenario going on in his mind, and every aisle he follows you, the scenario becomes just real to him, he's feeling more confident as if he already introduced himself to you and continues to follow you.

So when you shatter that mental scenario in his mind by assertively making eye contact, greeting, or negative facial and body language--they fall off their fantasy and succumbs back to their reality pit of overcoming their lack of esteem and confidence.

They only reason to go shopping with your women is buy her the hot clothes that you find sexy!Other then that if you go to the mall enjoy looking at all the women who are drressed sexy and pretend they did it JUST FOR YOU!!

Some times you in order to get thou the madness you have to take control of the chaos and make it fun.

Personally, men (including me) don't really notice it when a woman is looking at them until it's over the top (stalking, broad grin and open body language, etc.).

Apparently you haven't met some of the male posters here (or read their cries for help). A woman stops to let him pass as they cross paths. She smiles while she waits for him to go by. He rushes home, signs on to CD to ask, Was she flirting with me? Should I have gotten her number?
