I feel that way about people who stand too close to me...it's as if we're standing in a crowded room and they have no choice. I always back up...I don't care what they think.

I worked with a guy who was a close talker (remember Seinfeld?). He'd be in my face, I'd back up, he'd come close again, I'd back up. This would go on and on. Once, I backed up so much I almost fell down a staircase. {#emotions_dlg.blink}

I kid you not...back in the day I was at a party(outdoors)on a patio... and a guy came on so strong...I kept backing up...not realizing there was a big metal trash barrel behind me.{#emotions_dlg.huh}Yep fell butt first into it.{#emotions_dlg.blushing}

Maybe you have spinach in your teeth?

Maybe she's just so focused on what she wants to say next that it seems like she's staring?

She must be admiring your beauty, your impeccable manicure, your pearly white teeth, your shiny hair, your glistening skin, your gorgeous wardrobe, your elegant mannerisms. Take it as a compliment. {#emotions_dlg.biggrin}

I wish I could lol. I'd like to think it's admiration but it's just very strange so I'm confused. She also stares at me in general.

I worked with some "starers" when I was in FL for a year. It WAS an intimidation technique, and I avoided those people as much as I possibly could. {#emotions_dlg.glare}

I'm thinking that might be it. If it is then it's not working for her LOL.
