It&#x27;s like hearing. I can hear, but I cannot explain - how. My English vocabulary is not enough to describe it in details (I am from Ukraine, I learned English as adult).<p>Before that, I used some techniques to better control my body and feelings for years, so I was able to notice subtle differences and gradations of my feelings. I also know (poorly) body language (because I am amateur ballroom dancer), so I can notice subtle changes in behavior of others.<p>I feel warmth at my face when I do that, like warmth after warmup, and not like warmth when I self-heat a part of my body by concentrating at it.<p>It is much easier to stare at somebody, if I have feelings to her&#x2F;him (e.g. when I like or dislike her&#x2F;him).<p>It works without eye contact: from target back or when target is sleeping.<p>Targets always know direction from which I stared at them.<p>When effect is strong, it is easy notice it: it feels like something happens at skin (&quot;burning&quot;) but without pain of any kind, i.e. nerve system sends strong signals about something ephemeral, but nothing happens in reality. When effect is weak, it feels like warmth, so it is easy to mismatch it with self-heating with concentration. So, to test effect properly, you must not say to targets that you testing them, otherwise they will concentrate at their body and will feel warmth.<p>IMHO, it is kind of &quot;i like you&#x2F;i dislike you&quot; sign language used by animals and then forgotten by humans.<p>I had similar feeling myself, but two times only:<p>- in train, from girl: after about hour of staring at her (experimenting) I got exact same response. :-)<p>- from soldier, when we talked about how to free Crimea of Russian soldiers. :-)<p>It is all.<p>I stopped doing that because it was hard to stop looking without staring. Random people started to like me for no reason, remember me and my name for years, etc. I unlike that.<p>PS.
I saw a film where I was able to track at which girl  operator&#x2F;director is looking when filming, because of girl reactions, so I am 100% sure that I am not alone. :-)
