I really don't like when people stand right close behind me, even if they are just watching what I'm doing. In certain circumstances I could feel alright (e.g. taking a test), but during an ordinary day it drives me up the wall. I feel almost invaded, or just agitated. Sometimes I think it's partially because I want to be alone and not worrying/thinking about the other person behind me while doing a task. I also hate it when people try to micromanage me, and I get the same feeling when people are watching me.


I'm the opposite. When taking a test, it does not feel alright. lining up and such, I don't really care.

I really don't like people behind me in most situations. If I'm in a line somewhere, the closer they stand to me, the more it freaks me out. Yesterday I was in line at the store where I work (I was purchasing some things while on break) and the man behind me was standing so close to me that his cart was actually next to my side. I thought I was going to lose it-the line was really slow because we were busy and he kept touching me with his cart. :evil: I also hate when someone looks over my shoulder while I'm doing something. Even if it is non-judgemental I totally lose my concentration on what ever I am doing. It makes typing impossible.

I was standing in a queue at Ikea's ice-cream/hot dog counter and a woman was standing so close to me, that something belonging to her (probably a bag) was touching me. I kept moving forward a little and she did the same. I felt like saying, 'The queue's not going to go down any quicker just because you're closer to the front', but I didn't. It was really stressing me out.

It makes me extremely uncomfortable.
