          The second て form is the て form of the verb that is used after the first one which is いる in this case.




          見てて → 見ていて




          As for the meaning, there is a slight nuance but if you know the difference between the る and ている form, there should be no problem. It would be like saying in English:




          後ろ見て : I looked back (and...)



          後ろ見てて : I was looking back (and...)

Sugar confectionery includes candies ( sweets in British English), candied nuts, chocolates, chewing gum, bubble gum, pastillage, and other confections that are made primarily of sugar. In some cases, chocolate confections (confections made of chocolate) are treated as a separate category, as are sugar-free versions of ...
