It could be because you are shy or you have insecurities and u are afraid others will see them.

Because we always feel like we're being judged and we are. Judged might be too strong a word, but we're certainly being scrutinized, checked-out and given the once over. I still do it and I'm not looking for a mate. People are interesting... some are down right fascinating... their speech, mannerisms, choice of attire... I find it all such a splendid parade.
Next time you notice someone noticing you, go over and introduce yourself. You might get the brush-off or you might meet someone really interesting

Mostly everyone feels uncomfortable being around a bunch of total strangers. This is a typical human condition, that happens to mostly everyone sooner or later. I wouldn't worry about it much. Just be polite and smile and treat them well. Friends are strangers that aren't met yet.

Well, um, let's see -- it's because you don't know them yet. It is always nice to have some knowledge of a person's interests and personality when you are around them. But, you cannot always be around acquaintances. Just tell yourself, OK, I am nervous and shy, but they probably are too. And, jump in and say hi or love that shirt, or will you dance with me.

Sounds like a textbook social phobia. It's very common.
Google social phobia and see what you come up with. Paxil is a wonderful drug for this type of problem.

Don't feel like that as possibly most of the others feel the same as well. Just dont take any notice and enjoy yourself.

it's normal! the thing is others feel it too. so if you see someone, just smile. do something you like -- order your favorite drink, dance, or say hi to the person next to you.

because you have stepped out of your safety zone and into the unknown. Scary for us all, but exciting too.

lack of self confidence
Take charge and talk to people.
