I have a hard time meeting people's eyes...

I can look at people in the eye when they're talking, and they seem to have no trouble looking at me when they're talking, but when I'm talking - I'm too busy thinking about what I have to say. Does this make me stupid, or like I can't think/coordinate talking with being polite?

    ME TOO. Especially with a BLUE-eyed &/or a GREEN-eyed person. I dunno.. I feel like they're so amazing that my dark brown eyes are not worth to be looked at. I'm not degrading myself or anything, I don't desire to have those kind of colors (I'm perfectly happy with mine's), & no homo's, but ladies & guys who possess those eyes mesmerize me SOO much. o.O

      Why do you always come into posts and ask if it's Mark?

    Eyes are very personal. They can be sexual, angry, sad...emotional. So this is quite normal to feel the need to look away in order to keep your train of thought. In my public speaking class, I learned that while giving a speech "talking", to a group of people, it's more comforting to look around at different faces, that way you are not concentrating on anything else besides what you have to say.

    If you look at the bridge of the nose, I will instinctively know your a fake. At least not looking people in the eyes is legitimate...

    i don't think you talk to enough people, have you been excluded from society?
