When you talk to someone, do you look him/her in the eyes?

I look at boob...when male I look at hair.....when old man or woman I look at floor...When child I look out and away to attempt to seem badass as a motherfucker.

I usually just gaze around, helps me to concentrate on what i'm trying to say. not a good speaker, anyway.

However when I need to stress my point, or argue with someone I'll look in the eyes.

maybe I just view eye contact like the dogs and wolves do -as a sign of threat and domination, so I use it to challenge my opponent.

Yeah, for about 15-30 seconds at a time, sometimes to look at their hand gestures or when something happens that is more audible than the ambient noise of the environment, which causes me to look away for a second.

Generally I hold eye contact with the person unless I am nervous, which tends to occur around figures of authority until after a handful of meetings or people whom I perceive as dangerous to me, people who give me bad vibes (which are usually accurate, key word being usual, I don't count on them to be as they are not 100%), or women that I have just met. With men, I don't have issues holding eye contact when we have gotten comfortable with each other (all formalities have been expressed and I believe I have a decent enough feel for them), but with women I am more cautious and don't feel entirely comfortable with eye contact with them.

I can't hold eye contact with a person that I don't even slightly trust, and it takes me longer to trust women than it does to trust men. Generally, a man will act on his judgement of someone and not humor someone that they are uninterested in, but a woman is more likely to do so to be accommodating, I consider such to be dishonest, previous experience has inclined me to do so. I know that it is not right to generalize, as not all women are so deceitful, but I can't help but to instinctively feel in such a manner. Damn bitches fuckin' with my head.

My apologies in advance. I'm stoned as hell. OP, you've helped me realize a lot about myself. My Mom was abusive, bitch fucked with my head.

Ya but not the whole time. My beautiful eyes like to wander a bit :)

I use eye contact carefully. People tell me they feel that my eyes see right through them, and I don't like to make people uncomfortable.

I try. When things get especially hard, I was told to look at the bridge of the nose. One of my friends alternates eyes.

I look at their boobs.

Yes male or female, I still look at their boobs.

Cool, I usually look them in the eyes for a while and sometimes look away, I find constant eye contact a bit awkward xD

I look them in the eye most of the time, but I don't want them to feel awkward so while they're talking I will sometimes focus on something else.

I make eye contact most of the time, but will occasionally drift to their hands if they are animated talkers, or their mouth.

I look in their eyes, and sometimes at their mouth.

I use it normally, I think. The amount of eye contact differs according to how I feel towards someone.

I've only had two people say I don't make much eye contact, and I don't like either of them. So I guess that explains :D

People tell me they get "scared" looking in my eyes. I really don't know why, I'm not a scary person. But because of it I tend to look away most of the time.

Hey, I included a "potato" option in one of my posts one time :)

I usually try to look them in the eyes when we are talking.
