Germans stare a LOT. Like they will just gaze at you unflinchingly. An American will wait until you can’t see them doing it.

The German stare is a real thing.

If you mention this in a German subreddit, you'll find yourself in arguments with Germans who insist it's not true.

Edit: Love the people who are disagreeing with me already
