it's just very forced to make eye-contact, i think it freaks people out -- sometimes i see a look in their eye, like a squint, or a frown, or a widening, and think 'what the hell does that mean?' but they're actually mimicking the look in my eyes. i must look like a freak when i do eye contact. i can't do it naturally. i look at their hands, their torso's/chests, their laps, necks, shoulders, arms, knees - it feels insanely difficult to look into people's face if they're talking to me. and when i *do* look them in the face, like i said, it's horribly forced and scary.
i just wanted to know what you make of eye contact? Do you find it difficult all the time?; do you have days where social interaction is out of the question?; is it easy to look strangers/family members/good friends in the eye?
