Do you feel or get disturbed

if someone comes in and stands near you to see what you are typing, discussion or response, whether it be your family member or other known persons? Do you think your flow of thoughts gets disturbed by such acts?

I dont like people staring at what I'm doing more so standing near me just to take a peek. it's not like I'm hiding something, but for me, i get distracted because he/she will be asking questions on what am i doing or how did i come across this and that or how did you that.. i sometimes lose my train of thought because of the presence behind or beside me. I get irritated when the thought was cut off because i would have to start all over again. usually when i post here, sentences are forming in my mind even before I finish what im typing. So, it really bothers me. My husband knows that i hate it. So when he sees that im busy typing, he won't get near me. he knows I will be mad..

Yes, someone looking over my shoulder usually annoys me. I will frequently stop what I'm doing and ask that person what he wants.

Yes I do get disturbed. Not only for mylot but even when I am surfing the internet normally I do get disturbed and not able to do things freely as I do it when I am alone. I guess it happens with everyone here.

Oh yeah my thought is interrupted. I dont like people standing over me while I am typing. Either they say something and be done with it or just don't stand there at all. It is very annoying.

DEAR friend ,i admit it applies to me. I am not accustomed to reading or writing with someone else around. I am easily influenced by the outside circumstances. I would choose a quiet place to read or write usually. If i have to read or write around a lot of people or some noise,i will insert my headphone to prevent myself from losing.

Oh, I am completely disrupted when someone starts to look over my shoulder. Instead of just writing I start asking myself what they must be thinking about it and then I completely forget what I was saying. So every time someone approaches me when I'm working on my computer I make it clear to them that they had best stay away, far far away.
