    Default What to do/say when you get alot of eye contact?

    visit-red-300x50PNG
    I have been using mones for years and what i noticed is have received ALOT more eye contact

    with them sometimes too much , even to the point where i have to look away or it seems like we are staring at each

    other. And I don't want to seem like a weirdo.
    Does anyone have any comebacks/jokes or anything they say when a

    girl keeps staring into your eyes for a while?

    Thanks,
    Angel

    I used to have the same problem, big

    time. Terminal shyness. Now I'm married with 3 kids and don't worry about it. I just smile, sometimes say "hi"

    and keep moving, but probably if I were single and on the prowl again, I would freeze up again. I have some

    incredible stories about the 'fish who tried to jump in the bucket, but I couldn't hold it still enough'

    OK,

    the advice.... Yeah, just bite the bullet, smile and say "hi". Maybe it will develop, maybe it won't, but there is

    only one way to find out.

    Sorry I guess I should

    have emphasized a little bit more. I was talking more about when i'm already in a conversation talking

    with a girl, for example this girl I know always seems to look straight into my eyes when im talking and when I stop

    talking. I dont want to make her uncomfortable by staring at her when im talking with her, so I usually look into

    her eyes when talking then look down or to the side.

    But when i look back at her she is there still staring

    straight into my eyes and is still doing it even after I finish what I was saying which sometimes is very awkward

    and we end up in uncomfortable silences.

    Is this normal maybe she likes me, but yet she already has a boyfriend

    sooo.....

    I just wanted something funny/witty to say so we wont have those awkward moments.

    yes, I have known her for

    about a full school semester now. i noticed most people do the same thing I do (look to the side/down) when in

    conversations to not make me or other people uncomfortable, but she doesn't do that much. I guess maybe thats how

    she is?

    Sounds like it.

    As an experiment, you might try holdng eye contact--no

    matter what---until she breaks it, just to see what happens.

    Maybe find some other activity going

    on nearby that you can direct the attention/conversation to. Like "hey look at that going on over there. What's

    with that?" Or watch and comment about some other person's, animal's, or raindrop's behavior. Get her to

    watch/look at something else and engage her in conversation about that. Like watching a move and making running

    commentary type thing.

    Or bring a prop of some sort to look at. Pictures in a magazine, on your MP3 "digital

    media player" thing, etc. Learn a few magic tricks, whatever. Get her looking somewhere else but tie it into the

    conversation you are having.

    Just some thoughts.

    Holding eye contact can be very

    sexy if you have a smile in your eyes. Its touchy, don't be threatening. Make her comfortable. Acknowledge the

    stare, and make it a welcome thing.

    First of all its fine, and very

    useful, to think about this kind of stuff now. Just make sure that when your actually interacting with people you

    are much less "in your head" and are instead just flowing. If you start trying to micromanage your self like that

    the chances are that she'll think you're uncomfortable (which you are, right?).

    Even here:

    I dont

    want to make her uncomfortable by staring at her when im talking with her, so I usually look into her eyes when

    talking then look down or to the side.
    You are thinking too much.

    HOWEVER, a general rule is that you

    should try to be the last person to break eye contact. Your probably worried that you're going to come across as

    creepy or something, but again you're thinking too much. Subconsciously you already know when you've gone too far,

    so just let things flow. It's GREAT that she makes a lot of eye contact because this is awesome for building and

    manipulating sexual tension. Also, as Mobes points out to look down is *supposedly* an act of submission (NEVER good

    if your a man in your average conversation, 99% of the time women want a dominant man to sleep with). After

    reading that years ago I found myself breaking eye contact by looking up and too the side when remembering some

    something or whatever. Does this make a big difference? No idea! But it feels right and I know that generally I'm

    the dominant one in my interactions.

    wow - you'd have to wonder

    why she does that. Maybe she's trying to make you fall in love with her, would that be to your liking? If so,

    I'd go for it.

    Sue and I went out to eat at a new diner here in town last week, won't go back as the food

    was dismal. At any rate, a family of three came in and sat at a table behind us. The woman was younger, attractive

    and a bit curvy. Our eyes locked for a bit and she wasn't about to let go but I did have to turn away as I was

    afraid that Sue might have caught on and I sure don't want to annoy her. I didn't look down but more to the side.

    I wonder what kind of body language that is??? BTW, no mones on. I tend not to wear them when it's 2 degrees F

    outside.

    My bet would be that either

    she's dominant or already in love. You looking back into her eyes is not a bad thing ... as long as you can produce

    a tad bit of a smile instead of looking like you're about to kill her or yourself.

    Like the Capitano

    said, hi Cap! ... you're thinking too much, and that mostly leads to bad/wrong decisions/answers. For some reason,

    when humans filter things, they tend to go with the negative answer instead of the positive. Wonder why that is?

    I actually thought i was

    the dominant one, since she is always asking me for advice (she always makes it seem like she needs help). Really I

    never thought too much about the eye contact thing until when one day I think I looked at her a little too long and

    she said "why am I giving her the look" of course she said it with a smile. She kept saying that all

    period long even when I looked at her for about 2 seconds! i think she was just flirting with me though.

    Now back

    to me being the dominant one, some of my friends have told me they were intimidated by me when they first saw me or

    met me, as well as other people I barley know(Too much mones I guess, i barely found out about ODs on this Site!).

    Anyway I think she sees me as person she looks up to, she always tells me her problems then just waits for me to

    come up with a solution.

    Not meaning to rain on the

    Although (from experience...) being that involved with a woman's life and not dating her. You may hear

    something along the lines of "your such a nice guy. why ruin our special friendship" or simiilar impression that

    your considered more her brother than a dating prospect.

    I'm guessing thats it, maybe she looks up to me like a big brother? Though she has told me she

    wishes her boyfriend was more like me.

    I don't mean it to discourage

    you. Stick in there. Either she'll remain a real good friend ro it may turn into something more later on.

    Could not agree more. Building also on the other responses I think that you should just play it

    naturally and let the dynamics play themselves out. I'm one that figures a good female friend is a nice thing to

    have, it isn't always about sex.

    I think a woman will stare if she's attracted to you, or she's a control

    drone. Its easy enough to tell the difference. I think this girl likes you.

    What do you want with this

    girl? Sorry if I've missed that in the thread...but even if she has a boyfriend and you and her are friends there

    is nothing wrong with being honest about what you want. I'm going to assume that you like her because, well, it's

    much more fun that way

    Seems to me as though she

    isn't domineering and even necessarily dominant here, but rather she wants a man that leads strongly. Btw the

    reason why good eye contact is a sign of dominance is that to lock eyes with someone creates a lot of tension (even

    as part of an apparently neutral conversation there are subtle interplays of tension), and your ability to deal with

    that tension and then to manipulate it are indicators of your social experience and

    status.

    I'd say she was flirting too. You should have definitely said something about the way she was

    looking at you! "This look?! No this is me wondering why your looking at me like I'm the tastiest chocolate cake

    you've ever seen!" ...or whatever, consider something actually funny

    As Pendragon mentioned this is

    dodgy territory. It's possible that she sees you as the typical shoulder-to-cry-on nice guy.

    However, as I

    mentioned, eye contact builds tension and she is clearly comfortable with this happening with you. Also, what I

    highlighted in red is a clear response to your eye contact

    triggering sexual tension/attraction. Think about it! Even if she couldn't allow herself to escalate she would have

    had to feel the emotion to describe it like that, as "THE look".

    Btw none of this is advice as such, because I

    don't know either of you or your particular relationship.

    Having said that, I think you like her and if I were

    you I'd go for it

    I agree about the eye contact

    thing. Holding eye contact longer is a sign of being alpha, so it's almost always better to hold it longer. Just

    make sure you don't have a Wes-Bentley-in-American-Beauty creepy look while you're doing it. A playful smile is

    probably best.

    I'd be careful since she's already in a relationship. I would probably say something to the

    effect of "if your feelings aren't in a relationship, it's unfair to you and the other person" since she seems to

    be suggesting that she'd rather be with you ("I wish my BF was more like you") and it's not a big brother thing.

    If you'd like to have a chance with her, try to be abstract about the relationship so she can be the one who

    decides to end it (if she even so decides) instead of thinking it was you. I'd advise against being honest about

    what you want if she's in a relationship. The odds of you wrecking things are greater than if you play esoteric

    relationship advice guy.

    Good luck with this one, I can see many ways in which it could end badly.

    She's hoping you'll kiss her.
