Yeah, that's an interesting point. I always know if someone is watching me even before I see them.
Also, I had a similar situation as a child. The watching from my parents was always intrusive, it wasn't appreciative or pleasant for me. So maybe the discomfort is leftovers from that experience.
Strangely enough, if I'm on stage or teaching a class, for example, I relax and am completely comfortable with that. I have kind of the opposite of stage fright - being on stage relaxes me. Go figure.
