It's a cue to leave me alone

If I have headphones on, it is 100% because I don't want to hear anything outside of the headphones.

I got a lot of this kind of thing today, except it wasn't headphones it was an earpiece for a two way radio, and it was designed to not stand out.... So I kinda asked for it.
But then people would rudely relay important information on the radio with no regard for the conversation I'm having; and since the other person has no idea I just got earblasted with someone's voice, they keep yapping on about their insignificant drivel and I miss half the conversation because of the priority messages rudely coming through the radio.
I was volunteering, doing communications at a local fairground.... This weekend it was a renaissance faire. Fun.

Some of my students act like that. You are in school, put them away!

That's just a lack of commitment. You're wearing the headphones so you can ignore them. Just ignore them until they are in your face. They'll get tired of doing that.

It's an interesting trend these days, people wearing headphones and earbuds everywhere they go.
It's not my preference, and I get that it's a personal choice.
I agree there are definitely times where it makes sense, alone at the gym for example.
But I see groups of kids walking around, most of them with at least one or both headphones/earbuds on/in, and I'm like, what are you listening to? I can't imagine doing that.
But obviously some people like it, it's just not me

The only person asking you to remove your headphones is your Mom.
Everyone is happy to leave you alone.
??? You got something against OP?

️Noise canceling headphones at the super market are a huge game changer for me. Turned a stressful thing into a vibe.

I really can’t tell if this was a /s thing or you just kind of don’t like people.

The other side: "I kept trying to flirt with this guy at the gym, and he was NOT taking the hint. I wish men would just say what they want, instead of leading me on."
Nonverbal communication is better in this situation, like a light touch on the arm and a smile, or taking your dick out your pants and helicoptering it at them.
