My friend always acts nice whenever we hang out but recently seems to be avoiding eye contact with me. I don't know why. Normal?
This is normal. I know a lot of people that can not handle eye contact very well.
There could be many reasons for this. If it's a recent change, I would ask myself what else has changed about him or his circumstances. Could it be that he's feeling low? A guilty conscience? A change in the way he feels about you? Just some things to take into consideration...
I think this is normal. Some people just don't do eye contact very well.
I think it's normal. Too much eye contact makes me uncomfortable. I have a form of autism. Maybe your friend does too?
I sometimes break off eye contact with people because I've been told eye contact with me can be uncomfortable. One person said it was like I was looking too deeply, another thought I was judging them. It doesn't help that I usually look like I'm thinking about something and if I'm looking at someone at the same time, they think I'm try to unravel them or something. I think the truth of it is that I'm quite bad with body language so I'm just looking to understand things any way I can.
Not suggesting this is the case with your friend, just trying to highlight that there can sometimes be unexpected reasons why people avoid eye contact.
Uggh I hate when someone doesn't hold eye contact with me. I love making eye contact with random strangers ^_^ Anyways, it's normal.
I hardly make eye contact especially at my job. I was used to a job where the register faced away and I'm not comfortable with it, it's nothing personal. In your case there may be a reason but if that's the only change I wouldn't worry too much.
If you are a guy and your friend a girl, or your friend a girl and you a guy, eitherways opposite gender, I think you should be cleaver enough to realise his/her new feelings. Dont be so sure yet though, give it more time, observe the situation and if it really is that way and if you do think he/she means more than a friend to you then: Confess!
Nah i dont think they meant it in a bad way......maybe you were just acting goofy lately and that they dont think you would take that seriously? but anyways continue your dream and show them what you can do!
It's normal. sometimes they use that way to protect themselves,i think that's also the reason why person like wearing sunglasses all the time.
yeah, i can't look someone in the eye for more than like 10 seconds until i have to look away :o
they say it's one of the things in aperger or adhd. i forgot, but still
No, it wasn't always this way..my friend just started doing this..and my friend dosn't have autism. could it mean being uncomfortable?, feeling guilty about something? or maybe just being shy all of a sudden? or even lieing? who knows..I'm just curious as to why some people do this.
Only he knows why... Here's what I would do: when you're alone with him, wait for a quiet moment, then look into his eyes. When he looks away, ask him if he's okay. Say something like "Are you alright? You seem a little different." Be vague and let him do the talking. Listen and watch him very closely for any more clues.
