i was with some people, and someone was sitting there, and their bare leg was showing cause the pant leg was up - just above the sock... i was just staring at this person's bare lower leg - and couldn't stop. i figure people notice i'm doing that -- it must be so obvious, .... and i'd imagine really rude. but i find myself staring at people - ok, generally women, but also men... i'll just find some feature, often a 'flaw', just magnetic for my eyes... it's as though my brain just gets hijacked. anyone else? it doesn't happen often, but often enough. it's rude, but i don't mean to be.......... i figure it's one of the things i do that really sabotages relationships. idk what this is related to, in my asd....all i can come up with is - i'm pretty anxious and scared around people, even people i no, and i just..i guess stare........... it's like i objectify or distance them somehow, to this 'other' being...........
