Im struggling cuz I have a serious fear of going outside (due to my fear of being approached by creepy men/ harassed). Im always afraid some older dude was looking at me and checking me out even in covered clothes. 

Today I met a friend at Barnes and Noble in the manga section and some older guy who was walking in front of her quickly peeked over the corner. Im afraid he was looking at us. I cant remember if he was looking directly at us or if he was looking somewhere else. I saw the dude around the manga and comic aisles and some other nearby aisles, and when he passed me he gave me a smile. 

My brain is trying to rationalize that he wasnt looking at us and he was being polite, but the other part of my brain is saying he was looking at us. I dont know which side to believe.
