| Flirting by not giving eye contact?!?! Posted: 11/2/2006 8:51:02 PM | | Perhaps she is embarrassed because it is so common knowledge that she has a thing for you. Sounds a bit like highschool. When all your friends know you have a thing for this guy...then he walks by, and all you can think in your head is...all your friends are whispering about this guy and your encounter in the hallway and how cute he looked...that is what is running through your head...not how to flirt with him. It is a small town, perhaps she hasn't had much experience with men. Or if this has been a prolonged crush...understandable. | |

| Flirting by not giving eye contact?!?! Posted: 11/2/2006 9:08:56 PM | Some people (and girls happen to be people... just reassuring people) are very uneasy with the simple act of eye- or physical contact. Here's two examples:
1) Me. Until about 2 years ago, I was afraid to look anybody in the eye, because to me it was an intimate thing that I felt was meant to be reserved for people I truly loved. Same with touching, except I'm still dealing with that, mostly without success. Not like sensual touching... even a handshake jarrs me out of my inner thoughts. I feel dirty...
2) The last girl I asked out on a date. About a week or two ago, I met a really nice girl, and we sorta hit it off. She is also afraid to look people in the eye, and without thinking about it, I'm not looking her in the eye either. For the first time in years, I remember what it was like to be nervous about that. Then, when she has to leave, we hug for the first time. She's more open about that, but for me... I still blush when I think about times that women I like hug me...
See how complicated it can be? Ask. People with issues like these are either blunt about not wanting to talk about them or extremely thankful when a person is honestly interested in their difficulties.
hope all goes well

| Flirting by not giving eye contact?!?! Posted: 7/6/2007 10:47:37 PM | this is off topic but oh well... I am shy and call the eye contact thing a 60/40% ratio. I look away 40% of the time as a way to 'gather' my thoughts and I look at the person 60% to 'take in' what their saying by looking into their eyes. Do any other shy people behave like this? | |

| Flirting by not giving eye contact?!?! Posted: 7/6/2007 11:32:51 PM | So sillyness. Just run up to her, grab her around the waist from behind, and ask her why she isn't looking at you? Two things will happen, either she will turn around and look you in the eyes, or she will scream for the police - at which point you're totally screwed and will shortly have a record as a sex offender with a Class 4 misdemeanor sexual misconduct on your rap sheet, and you'll have to walk around your neighborhood explaining who you are, and why you're knocking on their door on a saturday morning. Just throwing some helpful advice out there. Oh yeah, if she screams for the police, that means it's time for you to stick a candybar in your pocket - because you can eat that on the way to jail and they'll think it already belongs to you and let you keep it for munching on later. BEST OF LUCK!  | |
