I keep getting the oppressive feeling of being stared by some women when I take the bus or the train. I'm literally doing nothing except using my phone but when I turn I'll spot some hostile looks. Not always but often enough that it bothers me, I'm not a schizo.

I'm honestly at the end of my rope of what to do/blend in.

What am I missing? Christ, I'm just a skinnyfat guy. Do I actually smell bad regardless of what I do?

What's there left to try besides buying $ROPE?

Did you ever consider the possibility you are simply incapable of accurately judging peoples expressions and are merely reading that they are hostile when in fact they're merely looking over at you?

Besides, everyone who smells bad knows if they smell. They may not notice if they don't think about it, but if they smell and actually decide to smell themselves, they'd notice. So just smell yourself, and if you can't smell yourself at all (preferably outside after breathing clean air for a while), then you're most likely fine.

How the fuck do you dress? I've experienced this before. You're probably not blending in enough with the people you surround yourself with. If you're on the bus or train you're probably riding with a lot of shitty poor libtards with criminal histories. If you look conservative or clean or well put together or like you haven't spent time in jail, they're going to resent you for that.

>the oppressive feeling of being stared by some women

It is probably wish fulfillment.
Meaning, your sub-concious wants to be stared at by women but your concious may feel uncomfortable with the idea (maybe you feel ugly or unable to measure up somehow) and so it "feels" wrong even though you would probably enjoy it if a woman actually did stare at you in a way that indicated interest and attraction to you.
When we are in public people do look at us but usually only to see if we are a threat.
If you don't look threatening then they will ignore you unless you are attractive to them.

Maybe you are better-looking than you think you are.
Or maybe women are wondering who you live with or where you are from, especially if you have an unusual form of dress.

To live in a society you have to learn to ignore other people. In a big city it is easy because people leave you alone.
Maybe move to a big city.
Or maybe try anti-anxiety medication, though in my case it made my anxiety worse so I eventually quit and now I smoke weed and just deal with the paranoia because it isn't important what people think of me, it is just there opinion.
Anyway, it is none of my business.

Good luck

Even if I were dressed like a clown and smelled like an egyptian, at most a couple people would bother to look at me in public.

I do on occasion observe my surroundings, yes. I usually don't stare at individual people because it's not particularly interesting to do so, and nothing about talking to other people I am close with has indicated that they usually do so either. Even if I saw someone staring at me, I don't know why it would have any impact on my life unless they looked potentially dangerous, a quality which women generally do not have.

I want to throw up. It's a combination of regret, guilt, and shame for letting it get ruined. I'm like this with all clothing damage that happens from an accident/incident rather than long-term wear and tear and I don't know how to stop it lmao.

Same anon, got some vintage army chinos in pretty good condition a few weeks ago and the one day I decide to wear them while hanging outside with my friends, my one drunk friend who's an idiot and a BJJfag thinks it'd be funny to try taking me down and it tears a hole in the seat. Not as bad as pulled threads in wool, and partly my fault for being friends with idiots, but still felt sad seeing it get damaged so quickly. I feel better knowing that it happens to other people too. I guess it's good too to keep in mind that clothes are transient and prone to decay, as all physical things are, but clothes especially.
