steal glances at somebody,
you try to look at them quickly when you think
they aren’t looking at you, typically because you are embarrassed to be looking at
them.
If you do something
with studied modesty
, you are modest but in a slightly
artificial way, as if you have been practising your modesty in order to create a
certain impression.
If you
pull at something
, you fidget with it nervously. When Kaufman pulls at his
nostril he may be trying to scratch.
If you do something
self-consciously
, you are aware of other people watching you,
and this makes you feel embarrassed.
