Looked at on tube journey?!

[dottiedodah]

Dont know what to think really .On day out in London. DH standing by the door on tube train. I have a seat . Youngish Chap a few seats opposite side to me keeps looking at me, feeling nonplussed as in my 50s ! Any thoughts?!

You have egg on your chin ?

Wants your seat?

Smile at him?

Read a book? Listen to music? Play on your phone?

Or just look him in the eye and smile? Or look at their shoes? That often works to get them to stop.

He's probably wondering why you keep looking at him.

He's from the north and doesn't know that looking vaguely in someone's direction down south is a really bad thing.

Sometimes people find other people interesting to look at.

Just one of those things. Don't worry about it.

If it was bothering you then eye contact with a glare sometimes stops it.

There's a really interesting sign just over your head.

He's shortsighted and not really thinking about where he's pointing his head.

You look muggable.

You remind him of someone and in three days' time, he'll realise its Great Aunt Helen.

Perhaps you look just like the photo of the older woman he's been chatting to on that fetish site he uses.

He is writing a novel in his head and you are perfect for one of the characters

You remind him of his Nan.

Wondering if you've absconded from a care home and maybe he should let someone know?

He's from the north and doesn't know that looking vaguely in someone's direction down south is a really bad thing.

Yeah it's that. Don't worry, the poor bugger will learn when he's stupid enough to say hello to a stranger.

He thinks he knows you from somewhere, is trying to work out where and if he’s being rude not saying hello. Later he realises that you look a lot like that actress in the thing he was watching night before last, but that you couldn’t have been her because that thing was filmed thirty years ago and she’d be in her eighties by now.

Log it with 101, sounds like he's committed a thought crime.

Probably any of these then! Just felt a little uncomfortable really .He was already sitting down ,and I wasnt looking his way but could feel him looking at me ,not above my head .Maybe I reminded him of his GF mum or something ! Mitzik My own son is 25 ! Im not able to look like his Nan hopefully , please be kind!

He was thinking, "Blimey, that lady looks paranoid."

He thinks you're Judy Dench?

@TheCanterburyWhales isn't she in her 80s?

He’s trying to work out where your scarf is from because he thinks it would be just the thing for his mum’s Christmas present this year. She’s SO hard to buy for.

Sounds slightly disconcerting OP, but, you know, some younger men do have a thing for older women. Look at Macron. It takes all types.

It's because you are stunning

Or

He's just gazing ahead vacantly

His sitting wondering why the hell you keep looking at him....

He gets a kick out of making older women think he fancies them?

It's a disguise and behind his curious face he's actually hatching out a plan to capture London from below
