    Now, I'm not kidding when I say this...

    I work with a woman a couple years younger than me, and she still lives at home. She's very paranoid about pictures of people, because she's convinced that they're staring at her. And she doesn't like pictures of people from when they're younger, because now they look different and for some reason this weirds her out too. It's to the point where her parents have to hide their wedding photos in their closet otherwise she won't go in their room

    How paranoid is that?

    Hm, that's not to weird. I'm okay with pictures, but I can't stand plushies/stuffed animals and dolls. They really do seem to be watching you. Also, mirrors freak me out, and not because I'm ugly. (I'm just plain, nothing special.) It's just that it's like there's a different person in the mirror watching me, and if thre is a little light in my room from the window, it'll hit the mirror and reflect and leave me paralyzed with fear that it'll bring something out of it. So I sleep with the lights on always.

    And yeah, that chick is just mega paranoid.

    I know how that goes. Once my mom had a small glass angel sitting on the window sill in our bathroom. Gahh.. It's gone now. Let's just say that. Heh

    The up side to this is; I had several photos of my boyfriend and when we hadn't seen each other in a while (live 2 hours away)I thought by bringing out his pictures he could sense or see me - it turned me on so much because I felt his energy through his pictures. What's also cool is I was the one who took the pictures of him so when he stared at the camera, he was staring at me- so, I feel it does have some of his energy and soul in it (the photos of him) I would pull them out and get so aroused he was watching me....:p

    Thanks for the laughs, guys. ILMAO right now.

    The only picture which I have any connection would be the picture of my guru, Osho.

    I wonder if that lady hates money - after all they all have faces on them.

    In case your wondering... .. there is a special technique used by painters which creates an 'optical illusion' for viewers, in which the eyes of the subject appear to be 'following you'.

    This can also be done in sculptures.

    Please dont ask me how hehe.. but master painters use some 'shadow' or 'light' which, at certain angles tricks the viewers eyes.

    So, your not paranoid hehe.. your just viewing a talented artist.

    im afraid of pictures as well...but only when im high. Then, it really feels like theyre staring into you. Also, when i watch a movie with like Chris Farley, i cant help thinking about how his body is decomposing and creepy, and seeing him alive and moving on screen freaks me out.

    lol
    i love pictures
    i look at them all the time

    and i partiuclarly love mirrors
    i cant stop myself looking at myself whenever there is a mirror in my line of sight.
    just staring right into my eyes.. i feel so connected with myself.


    and i think youll find that if you look at ANY photo where the person is looking straight at you, they will look straight at you from whatever angle you view the picture.

    but why do her parents want her in their bedroom? wouldnt that be a great way to get some privacy?
