This is not unique to women or the Pearl District. Everyone in Portland does this coz they be some passive aggressive judgey-ass bitches. SIDE EYES FOR EVAH!
Girls like big sunglasses, and no, not just the ones in the Pearl. No really. As for you being "kinda fat"....maybe she likes that, who knows. I have seen more heinously ugly potbellied dorks with cute girls in this town than anywhere else I have ever been. Or she could be a cannibal. You never really know. I would take it as a compliment, but not attend a "butchering class" with her if I were you.
Why's it okay for you to stare directly at them? Did it occur to you that maybe that makes them uncomfortable, and they're just keeping an eye on you in case you jump up and try to follow them?
What happened to giving strangers funny expressions when they look at you? Give em a nice fat raspberry. That'll freak em real good and give you a laugh.
Most importanlty, if you want to avoid horrible people, don't hang out in the Pearl.
