I was at the pools today and I kept checking myself to make sure there were no children in my eyeline just in case people were thinking that I was a pedophile or something.

I have zero interest in that, but because I was at the pools by myself I feel like people are suspicious of me.

The truth is I know I was probably wasting my time and energy worrying about it, since I seem to be invisible to others if anything. Nobody cares who I'm looking at or what I'm wearing, but the thought persists that people judge me, and in this case, judge me as a sex offender.

Thoughts?
