I don't even realize I'm doing it, because I see just fine as long as I glare, but it has lead to some misunderstandings and confrontation that always takes me by surprise.

There were enough people on the trail and she'd glanced over her shoulder at least three times before I passed them, so I can't imagine she didn't see me. Unless, of course, she unconsciously blocked it out, which happens.<br /><br />Are you holding a dagger or some sort of skull when you're staring at people?

I just seem to have a knack for scaring random strangers. I'm not sure why, I'm very polite! I do tend to stare a lot at people, though.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16691181341816476426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4812930407718856652.post-47711402861255995922013-06-13T21:04:35.769-07:002013-06-13T21:04:35.769-07:00Ah, she may have had that reaction because you did...Ah, she may have had that reaction because you did not show proper "trail etiquette" when passing someone from behind. In order not to startle them, the polite thing to say is "on your left" (or right, as the case may be, but it is typically left because people tend to walk on the right of the path to avoid oncoming traffic). And you usually give about 5-10 feet notice so you are not right up behind them when you say it. Also a "hello" is nice to show you are friendly and not a homicidal maniac (one never knows these days)!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01621769858462199685noreply@blogger.com
