How are humans able to “sense” we are being watched?
In: Biology
We cannot sense we are being watched, but from an evolutionary standpoint, it makes sense to pay attention to detail on a subconscious level. We “get” a lot more of our surroundings than we think we do. But our brain is very good at commenting out the unnecessary parts. But a predatory animal staring at you, that is something really necessary to be aware.
/and it is ind of biased too. If you “feel” you are being watched, look around and no one is watching, you dont mind. But if you catch someone looking, then you feel validated. There WAS someone watching.
