The importance of eye contact in a relationship can't be overdrummed!
Re: The Importance Of Eye Contact by Riskymallam: 7:13pm On Nov 08, 2011
The importance of eye contact is numerous.
I personally like looking people in the eye when talking to them.

And if you are trying to snag or scam me, I'll know either by how you keep trying to evade my gaze.

Or if you can't hold a steady gaze.

1. In a way, It helps your self-esteem. Cos people will see you as a confident person.
2. You can persuade someone into your line of thinking/argument by the way you hold their gaze while you put your points across.
3. It generally shows you are interested in the person.

But there's a catch here, if taken too far might make you come across as either weird or creepy. So seek, for a middle ground ok.

An old Yiddish proverb says, "The eyes are the mirror of the soul", and they are,  cheesy. Eyes can captivate an audience and express what words may not be able to deliver. A word is a word, but a word expressed upon the sincerity of the eyes will allow the words spoken to reach the minds of those they are spoken to. This is why eye contact is important. Eye contact is a non-verbal ability to communicate, and it often equals to our ability to verbally express a thought. Interestingly, we are least aware of our non-verbal communication skills like body language and especially eye contact, yet these non-verbal skills often speak louder than our words. You know in college many students have written an essay on eye contact and its important. When you maintain eye contact, you present an air of confidence in yourself and what you are communicating. People who are listening to what you are saying will take you more seriously, and will take what you say as important. If you lose eye contact or focus on everything else but the person you are speaking to, you may not be taken seriously and the truth in your points may be lost,  grin

Re: The Importance Of Eye Contact by Nobody: 8:24am On Nov 09, 2011
'An eye for an eye', 'eye contact for eye contact'. Lol. I dont like it, but it's good, you look into someone eyes, you look into their soul(d eyes is a mirror to some1's soul).

That thing about knowing what someone is up to by looking into the person's eye is not always true o,believe me some people can feign almost everything.

I normally can't look people in the eye except I'm very comfy with them(tend to get shy) the only persons I really like keeping eye contact with are My dad,my besty,my siblings,I can easily tell when are\want to lie. My ex was good at keeping eye contact but trust me you can never know what was in there.

[size=14pt]That's because
1. You normally cant look people in the eye and
2. He was the one keeping eye contact, so he was trying to look into you. Not vice versa. Trust me, if you can keep eye contact, you'll see something o! You cant both look into each other's eyes and expect to see the same things. Unless of course you are both squaring and sizing each other up, readying for a fight!. . . wink

Too big a grammar for a minor case grin grin grin grin grin grin
@Op, Just like many others have said eye contact is very important as it conveys one's confidence level across to his/her audience, it could also be decieving, just like somebody earlier stated, I know somebody that could stare you in the eye and give you a big lie
Re: The Importance Of Eye Contact by tpia5: 11:08am On Nov 09, 2011
i think it depends on the culture and context. Some cultures do it while others dont.

You don smoke your usual this early morning abi? Does liking to keep eye contact with these ones mean that they are the only ones I do that with? I may not like keeping eye contact with him but that doesnt mean I didn't do it,matter of fact when you even get comfy with someone, you find out that keeping eye contact with the person wouldn't be hard,you even do it without knowing.

I'll bust your head if you use that disco-whatever word on me again. Alb---- no let me complete am o.
