    I only do that if I know that they stink. Sometimes people smell fantastic and it takes me by surprise.

    Hahaha, that is so funny, I do the exact same thing. I don't trust other people's ability to take care of their hygiene so I hold my breath in order to protect myself from having to smell anything gross

    Well I do the opposite I actually open up my nostrils automatically more to see if that person does care about his/her hygiene.

    Normal. I do it if they are coughing or seem sickly. Its just and automatic reaction for me.
