I've noticed with my boyfriends i have trouble looking them in the eyes.
i have no idea why and i don't usually get shy around them.

i dun really have problems lkin at guys in the eye, i actually like it coz i can see what they really mean by their eyes

I always have the same problem.
I figured it's cause I'm scared to really connect with them. [Maybe that's the same issue you're having.]
You know, that I'm really nervous.

When I like a guy, my whole body responds to it.
I get butterflies in my stomach, my knees literally buckle, so if I look the guy straight in the eyes, I'm afraid I could get faint.

Are you lying to them?

I don't like looking people in the eyes.

^ Me neither. I went to buy some concealer today, and the male (obviously gay) makeup artist tried some on me, and I felt soooo uncomfortable to look at his face, and his eyes when he was talking to me. Which is what I should do, but I was so close to him that it was just strange.

If it's people that I'm not familiar with or don't know very well, I have a hard time talking them directly in the eyes. I need to feel a little more comfortable around them to be friendly enough to look into their eyes.

thats a really big problem with me too.
well, i cant really look anybody in the eyes.
i always look down or away right away.

I sometimes feel awkward when I talk to anyone, because... where do I look?

But I usually look at their eyes. I don't know, it just feels the most normal to me. Unless they're really close, like Gigi said... then it just feels creepy.

I don't have a problem looking people in the eyes. I'm sure that creeps them out, haha. Usually, if I don't look someone in the eyes when I'm talking to them, then I'm looking all over the place and they will probably think I don't want to hear what they have to say.

When it's someone who's really close to me, which doesn't happen often, it feels awkward to look them in the eyes. I don't know... it feels like it's a little too intimate to be staring a stranger in the eyes when they are really close to your face.

Really??
I have the exact opposite problem...
I can look at random strangers straight in the eye.
&&
I can with my friends.

But with my boyfriends its like their eyes are sooo INTENSE.
I feel with every guy that I have dated that they have a power to make me faint if I look them in the eye.


So I guess its the exact opposite and more.
Haha

Eh, my dad always tells me it's rude to not look someone in the eyes when talking to them.

Usually I don't... but that's mainly because it tires my eyes to focus on one thing for so long x__o;

I can look strangers and other people I know in the eyes when I talk to them. It's the polite thing to do, of course.

But when it's someone I'm interested in, this simple act becomes that much harder.

I can look people in the eyes, unless I feel like they are staring at me.
Like, if I feel like they are looking me over to find my flaws, or check me out, suddenly I just can't keep eye contact anymore.
But, I totally can with my boyfriends.

I have a really hard time looking anyone in the eye, although I do find it's harder with stangers. Not sure why. It's like those dreams people (including me) sometimes have where you should be looking at someone/something, but you just can make you head/eyes turn the right way. So I usually either look at my/the other person's shoes, everywhere, the wall behind them, or sometimes I'll find myself examining their teeth.

If your boyfriend looks like this, DONT look at him in the eyes. You will become a statue.


But if not, then I guess thats just your minds normal reaction. Don't worry about it.

i think it looks ridiculous when you dont make eye contact and advert your eyes somewhere else. It makes me think that the girl is disinterested or super shy. which is a turnoff.

<3 medusa.

i had a problem looking my boyfriend in the eye early on in the relationship but once we got passed a lot of things and became extremely comfortable with each other, i was able to look him in the eye more and now we're so close that it never feels awkward.
