Is it normal for my neighbor to peek through his window to look at me?

Well just recently I've noticed my younger neighbor, he is about 16 and I am 20, peeking through his bedroom window in my backyard while I'm outside. And truth be told I am not completely positive that that he is looking at me, it could just be coincidence. But I have noticed several times when I am outside on my back porch that he is looking through his window. I am not very pretty so I don't think he is peeking to look at me but I just don't know what he is looking at? Is it normal? And should I do anything about this or should I just ignore it?

    Prettiness is in the eye of the beholder, not the beheld.

    And, to a 16 year old boy, all 20 year old girls are worthy of peeping at.

    Firstly, you're prettier than you think. Everybody thinks they look worse than they really do, stop being so hard on yourself. Secondly, seriously, you're definitely prettier than you think. I promise.

    In a situation like that, I'd say trust your gut...if you think he's staring at you, he probably is. He's 16, so he's probably going to stare at anything that moves and has lady parts.

    I would also recommend figuring out what parts of your house he could see into from his house, if any, and keep an eye out for that if necessary.

    As for what you should do...well, if you want him to stop, you shouldn't just ignore it. The first thing I would suggest is just make sure he knows that you know - stare back at him, wave at him, maybe say something to him if the window is close enough for him to hear you talking. You don't have to be angry or confrontational about it, unless you want to, you could be quite nice about it. Of course, somebody creepily staring at you is more than enough justification to be angry, if you chose to confront him that way. Up to you.

    If that doesn't work, or if you don't want to do that, your options are to say something to his parents or have your parents say something to his parents.

    First of all, obviously you enjoy it! Second of all you say you're unattractive, enjoy it! Third, web-cam it, get rich, enjoy it!

    I had one of my neighbors do that to me when I was around 11-13. But he was married and around his 30s

    Alfred Hitchcock got aroused by just staring at people *and I don't mean someones' naughty bits while they're not looking, that's normal*

    ewww, i mean if it were just out of curiousity like "normal" people, he'd just peek real quick and try not to make it obvious. but really looking in...man... if it bothers you do something about it.

    He could just enjoy string at people while they don't know it. ;) Sometimes I watch my neighbors just because it makes my feel secretive and such

    Peeping Tom.

    Unless, he's looking at you 24/7 or using binoculars, I don't think there's really anything you can do. Keep your guard up.
