Although I'm bad at making eye contact during conversation, I will admit that good eye contact during sex is a must. At least IMHO.

I fucking give someone eye contact if I feel like giving them eye contact, and if I don't I simply don't. If I know that some people in particular don't like eye contact I stare into their soul. But being good at eye contact is good because it helps you lie if the need arises.

Pet peeve of mine. Really bugs me. Even if a chick is otherwise smoking hot...
But still. Eye contact. Sex is intimate; you gotta get up in each other's space, you know?
I was just trying to breathe some new life into the thread.

I usually give eye contact as I'm listening and then look away as I talk and focus my eyes on my hand gestures. Which usually makes them look at my hands and allows my point to get across much better, because they are getting a visual as well as auditory input.

I hate the casual conversation with a weirrrd amount of eye contact. good eye contact is necessary for a deep conversation but If we're just making small talk then you have to know when to look away.
I'm like why u staring at my eyes? you don't know me like that bro
so eye contact is good if its meaningful, otherwise it's feels weird man

I find when it's small talk or something I couldn't care less about, I make eye contact a decent number of times.
When it's a personal or deep conversation, I keep eye contact a lot.

dude its the difference between deep and meaningful eye contact and weird serial killer eye contact
its subtle, and of course im giong to make eye contact with a cashier or anyone I have an interaction with
but I'm not going to stare into their eyes uncomfortably long or super intensely unless the conversation is intense
that shit is just weird

exactly its weird to stare at someone during small talk, but to be polite you make occasional eye contact to acknowledge that you are listening.
if the conversation has some emotional depth then you stare into their eyes to try and fully understand what they are thinking because words can be inadequate by themselves.

Eye contact can be tough for me cause when the majority of people speak I get bored and zone out. Unless I'm really high or tripping; then I'll pay attention to their words.
I always use eye contact when addressing people in direct conversation. Talking with friends and girls too, the eyes express things words can't. I found this thread interesting because I struggle with keeping eye contact with most strangers; people are boring! or bad speakers, or they have no vocabulary. I was thinking about that today. Shroomery reads my mind once again...
