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

than not bothering to look at them.

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.

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.

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...

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

how are you Ocee?
