"Feeling" Eyes on You

Not sure where this is meant to be, but thought I'd put it in the ESP and telepathy section because I have a feeling it's to do with psychic awareness of another persons attention or mind.

Anyhow....for most of my life I've noticed this thing where I happen to simply know who is looking at me, from what direction they are looking at me from and whether they are paying attention while looking or just vaguely scanning the area.

To go into detail, I feel peoples gazes as a pressure or a kind of heat over me on the areas where they are looking, and when I notice that heat my awareness shoots straight to them and, no matter where they are (even behind a wall or in a crowd) my head snaps around, or I suddenly turn to face them if they are behind me and I meet their gaze.

Now, after the initial realization that someone is looking, when my awareness spreads over them, I instantly know a lot of information about the person such as: why they are looking, their emotions, whether they are criticizing or appraising me and generally whether they are a danger or not.

Because of this, literally every time someone hostile sets eyes on me I apparently "pin" them with my gaze. I know this because numerous people have told me that they literally become paralyzed with fear when I give them my "death stare" and they often feel that an immense stifling, almost suffocating weight settles in the air around them which becomes stronger and more volatile the longer I look at them and the closer I approach.

I have half a mind to put this behavior/skill/effect down to my "predatory" nature, that maybe I subconsciously take these eyes on me to be a challenge I have to meet, or that perhaps its a psychic ability....because seriously, not everyone has enough empathic awareness to panic and become paralyzed with fear when I look at them while secretly feeling anger/irritance/loathing.

I can also say that I am probably under 6 feet tall, a female teenager, extraordinarily skinny and I appear very breakable......not in the least intimidating.

I rarely show negative facial expressions either, I've grown a defensive mechanism that keeps my face blank and devoid of emotion when I am unhappy in any way or form....so people are obviously not "struck down" by my expression.

Has anyone else been on the receiving end, or the glaring end of one of these "death stares" that I describe?

Can anyone think of another explanation for it other than some kind of psychic skill?

Any theories, opinions, knowledge.....etc
