ChessPieceFace Posted December 11, 2011 Posted December 11, 2011 Apparently, eye contact from females is a big deal as well. They did some kind of speed dating event in New York to test it out. I believe that the subjects were not supposed to speak just make eye contact and a few of the couples ended up married. The men must have been so shocked to find a woman that would shut her yap for 5 seconds that they spontaneously popped out a ring.

Author DearAbby Posted December 11, 2011 Author Posted December 11, 2011 So the guy is damned if does and damned if he doesn't. He is more damned if he doesn't. The only way it's creepy is if he makes it a staring contest.
daphne Posted December 11, 2011 Posted December 11, 2011 The best way to summarize it is when first meeting a woman make eye contact until SHE breaks eye contact with you. Do not look to the side or especially down. If you look down or break eye contact with a woman first it sends them a message (subconscious) that you are weak. They do also say there is a fine line between a good amount and being creepy, what the line is I have no idea. I think this is true. Also, looking sideways in my experience indicates lying. On the advice of a male friend, I stared into the eyes of the guy I'm dating now on our first date. It was unobtrusive, but I was checking him out emotionally and to see if I could trust him. He didn't look away first and it was a fairly long gaze. He was warm and open and didn't mind inquisitiveness on my part. It helps to disarm if you're smiling while doing it. In another situation, I stared into a guy's eyes that I found somewhat attractive only to find myself extremely attractive afterwards. I think I read it from the book mentioned, tried it and it kind of backfired on me. Although we were both fairly hot and bothered after the encounter. It was summer, we were both wearing shorts and sweating. Hot.
