Let's have a discussion on this

growing up we're taught to look people in the eyes as we talk to them . . as a sign of respect . . sometimes getting in a fight you might hear someone say "he's too scared to look me in the eye blahblahblah"

but then I see comments like this

Looking into a person's eyes—seeking some kind of a connection—is an admission of neediness

Do you look people in the eye? Why or why not

Speculate brehs. Share some wisdom if you've got it

I always love to maintain eye contact with females

But keeping sustained eye contact with other men is :huhldup:

I completely disagree with the quote you posted in your comment, not your ideas.

Whoever wrote that is a little bytch who has insecurity issues.

Some people would say this means your fearful?

maintaining eye contact with females might also be a subconscious ploy for approval :patrice:

Sustained and prolonged eye contact is an intimate thing. You build connections with people just by doing this.

aint nothing like staring deep into a girls eyes, it's seductive.

But foh if a nikka wanna keep eye contact with me throughout a convo, it comes across to me as if the guys overcompensating or invading my personal space

Humans got a so many sub expressions. Eye contanct meaning can change due to body language or face expression.


Long eye contact with wide eyes means your fearful... Example, an interrogator just asked u a do or die question that caught u off gaurd.

Normal ppl have natural eye movement when they talk because it's a direct connection to thinking in the brain.

So that's why long sustained eye contact can also be seen as aggressive or needy (think puppy dog) because it shows your brain is actively trying hard to purposely stare

honestly if you don't look people in the when you speak to them or walk by them i cant consider you a man

you lack the basic requirements


only thing worse is looking someone in the eye then looking down on the ground right after :mjlol:

This is probably made up by some nerd who doesn't have the balls to maintain eye contact.
Balls? What's so ballsy about looking someone in the eyes? :mjlol:

I view eye contact as a sexual thing. Don't like looking dudes in the eyes all the time
