Here are 2 examples:He was glancing nervously at his teacher.Why were you glancing nervously at me?
No. At least not in the sense of "glancing" (looking). Glance is the noun, and glancing is a gerund noun. The word glancing can be an adjective when used to mean an indirect impact, i.e. a glancing blow.
If she keeps glancing at you, then it most likely means that she already likes you,
* bounce: spring back; spring away from an impact; "The rubber ball bounced"; "These particles do not resile but they unite after they collide" * a glancing rebound
Example sentence - If she were careful, she could glance in his direction without him noticing her.
I quickly GLANCE over at the soccer ball flying in the air, and as it makes its way over to me.
Stephanie Fawbert has written: 'Glancing'
A glancing collision is a type of impact between two objects where they come into contact at an angle rather than head-on. This can result in the objects deflecting or sliding off each other rather than directly impacting. Glancing collisions can affect the direction and outcomes of the objects' motion after the collision.
Don't look directly at it, just a quick look

The opposite of gazing is averting or looking away.
