“I think you get used to being looked at. It used to bother me when I was young. But you get more secure with yourself at least as a man the older you get.”

Meaning

This reads as a reflection on fame, attention, and self-possession. The point is less about being watched than about the change that comes with age, when outside judgment hurts less and confidence starts to come from within. It lands in any setting where someone feels exposed, especially when public scrutiny has to be met with a steadier sense of self.
