Do you ever use the presence or absence of eye contact

to communicate or reinforce communication?

I can't say I do....because I am not and never have been comfortable looking someone directly in the eye...I don't know why...It's just the way I am.....

when i`m not starring at there boobs...lol

i use absence

Very few better ways to better communicate that you are unimpressed by another person,

than not bothering to look at them.

i look straight in there eyes so u can know if there are hiding anything

huh? please explain that in simple communication via ways i can really absorve

i almost always use eye contact...probably too much

Yup! Thats part of a salesmans tools!


Do you want the black cookware OR THE BLUE DELUXE SET!

Many people feel that not making eye contact is a sign of being intimidated,

I was pointing out that the absence of eye contact can also communicate

that you are unimpressed by a person, or their actions.

Oh then i got the thread all wrong.

Eye contact, always

I prefer people who look at me back

and can you find what it is they are hidding?

Absolutely. But, it is rare for me to have too much of an absence of eye contact... depends.



I'm huge on eye contact & I make lots of it, as it is extremely important to me.



Gotta have it.

That is most people (men and women) around here.

Good to see you around Ocee

They say if you dont look in the eye your hiding something,,I dont like looking in the eyes at times because I'm thinking of what they are saying...I dont think the cops would let a person go free if they have blood on their hands and look them in the eye and say they didnt do it...

Good to see you too.

yes...body language is very powerful, trust me!

As a child I learned all to well all about using eye contact.


When I misbehaved as my punishment my father would take two chairs and place them across from each other and he'd sit in one and I'd have to sit in the other.

I would have to stare directly at him and if I dare looked away he would make me sit and stare at him even that much longer.

The funny thing was he never spoke to me the whole time and of course I'd break out crying.That was worse then a spanking cause I didn't like my dad being mad at me.

So yes I'm used to useing eye contact when I'm having a discussion with someone.

Oh yes, it is a very useful way of communicating.
To stare someone down, or to ignore as you say.

how are you Ocee?
