I don't look at people i'm talking to if i'm sitting next to them

For example, in class, I'll be talking to my friend, but I won't even look in her direction. It's not that I don't want to, for some reason I just don't! I have no idea if it bothers them because I never see their facial expressions XD.

    It's kinda awkward to look at someone to the side of you. I tend to glance now and then... Otherwise I don't bother. I think it's normal =]

  • I do something like you! When i'm talking to someone, i dont look them in the eye, i always look at something else, like i can only hold their gaze for 5 seconds or so then i look away and talk again... its not that i dont want to i just find it awkward to get my face to look at them! x

    I do that too sometimes. I think its because you're too close to that person and you dont feel comfortable looking at them, right?

  • DO look at people, no eye contanct will imply you dont want to talk or be friends or you are being rude and ignorant.

    Not making eye contact is actually a body language signal of lying. I'm not saying you're lying but be careful as some people may think you're being insincere if you refuse to meet their eyes while speaking to them.

    I have to look at the persons eyes when I talk, otherwise I feel like it's just impersonal.

    I don't look at some people when I talk either, it makes me self-conscious
