Staring into someone's eyes? For men is showing interest? For women is their way to shoot their shot?

[postempestas]

I honestly can't bear looking into their eyes for more than 3 seconds, I get so nervous and I look away in such a ridiculous and fast way lol I feel ashamed! Because I don't want them to think I am a weirdo or that I want something, well usually I do but I won't admit it right away. Sometimes when I like a guy I keep staring at him slyly from time to time to check that he does the same. I mean, thats how a man shows interest and that's how a woman shoots her shot, isn't it?

[bowenw]

Don't be nervous. It shows your interest whether it's romantic or just showing your are paying attention to someone. Practice staring longer with a friend or family member. See who can stare the longest.

[postempestas]

I only get nervous around men I don't know.

[bowenw]

A lot of people are the same way. When you're feeling nervous, remember that the guy may be feeling just as nervous about you. I suspect you will get better with eye contact the older you get. For now try playing a little game in your head to look at someone for one second, then progress to two seconds, and so on. You don't want to come across as weird by starring at them too long either, so don't go beyond 5 seconds with a stranger. The look at something else, like your drink or around the room, then back to them.

If that's how women shoot their shot then id never catch it. Cause usually I look away too haha

[postempestas]

If she looks at you almost everytime you look at her, means many times, then pretty sure she is interested.

[Gabisitooq]

Having an eye contact is the best thing you can do at first + you will definitely check her out and figure out are you interested in her

[teamvic]

Yeah im sure but I just feel odd about it haha it's just something I gotta get better at I suppose

[Gabisitooq]

Sometimes it’s good to make eye contact with people you are not interested, just to practice. Like for example older women, they will tell flattered and you won’t feel uncomfortable cause you don’t care

[teamvic]

Its not really about the girl looking cute I just feel odd with anyone haha. I try to look at their eyes but can only for like a second

[teamvic]

Are you good at eye contact

[Gabisitooq]

Hahahah I would say yes. I pretty sure couple years ago I wasn’t, but then I realised it’s so powerful. Imagine being a person that’s not scared to look into someone’s eyes😍. People automatically think damnn he/she is brave and it’s also like a respect thing for me. It’s awful when you talk to someone and all they do in look at the floor :(

[teamvic]

You wouldn't love talking to me then😂 well I dont always look at the floor but you know ahh whatever haha

[teamvic]

Wait i was just thinking, I do look at the people talk to , just not in their eyes. I dont want y'all thinking I'm out he looking at the floor all day long😂

[Gabisitooq]

I guess it’s time to practice looking into peoples eyes. You will also feel more powerful than them. I swear try it 😉

[teamvic]

Yeah is something I definitely need to work on. 🤔 you don't find it odd if someone looks into your eyes the entire time?

[Gabisitooq]

I’m mean what would be quite creepy 😂 it’s usually natural like look into someone’s eyes for couple of seconds than focus on something else and then go back to eyes. It depends on how comfortable, if it’s a person I know well, I don’t mind

[teamvic]

Ohh see i be doing that but I only stare for like 1 second haha

See im not crazy

[JosyJosy]

That's how the blonde girl who was into my date "shot her shot", by staring, and nothing happened, cause instead of staring I walked up to him and took him for myself

[scooogy]

You mean you initially chose to date him because the blonde girl "shot her shot"?

[JosyJosy]

@scooogy No it was already going well and saw her setting her eyes on him too, so

[scooogy]

@JosyJosy do you think this can happen between two close girl friends as well?

[JosyJosy]

@scooogy I wonder... it might be the end of a relationship, or maybe both will just not date the guy and that will be it. Guy better makes up his mind and pick someone to make it easier

[scooogy]

@JosyJosy after I picked the one, at some point the other seemed easier with talking to me 🤔

[JosyJosy]

@scooogy I haven't experienced it yet, we happen to be interested in different guys

[Anonymous]

its a reminder how i've always hated that guys have to approach women

[postempestas]

Hey, I am a woman who approaches guys xD if I see him interested ofc.

[Opinion Owner]

have you ever asked a guy out before or ever asked for his phone number? or just given a guy your number without him having to ask?

[postempestas]

I simply threw the fact that i was single and hours later he came on the rain and gave me a note with his phone number and instagram. Even if he didn't I would have put more pressure into him. Id wouldn't have stopped until he knew I wanted him. The true story wasn't this sweet, it didn't last, he didn't really like me, he just wanted to fuck me real bad.

[postempestas]

For some reason all he did was romantic tho, thats why its so ridiculous, all sweet until he got what he wanted. Men are like that.

[Opinion Owner]

do you think this will prevent you from making the first move as a woman ever again?

[postempestas]

Oh hell nah! Hahah It won't stop me at all. If I like someone I will go for it, I win't sit down and regrer the lost chances nah. Life is too short for that. Ig i am too ambitious, good for me.

[Opinion Owner]

well god bless for that, i highly doubt it will ever become more common or more mainstream in the world, at least just not in my lifetime, but it would be nice and awesome if women made the first move or approached guys, asked them out first or initiated the relationship, as much as guys, men do, but like i said, i sadly don't see it ever becoming more common

[postempestas]

I totally agree. And why would you guys want us to start? I am just curious.

[Opinion Owner]

tons of guys love the feeling that a girl is chasing or pursuing them as well, we want the feeling that the girl is putting in effort to start a relationship with us, plus, even though what you see in movies is different from real life, while i'm sure it does happen at times in real life, just not common or often as to what you see in movies or TV, but it's nice and awesome, heartwarming, to see a girl fall for or end up liking, the shy, quiet, awkward or nerdy, geek guy, etc.

[postempestas]

Im not into shy nerdy geek guys but yeah. I mean, i will pursue a man like a lady, not like a thirsty hoe, gotta be discreet bc they may take it the wrong way. Thats why sometimes women dont shoot their shot. Bc they dont want to be considered easy or bc they are too shy and want to be seeked. Years ago i wanted to be seeked but seeing guys dont, I fucking will.

[COMMODOREII]

Looking into the eyes is the window to their soul and who they are as a person. I have no problem looking into a girls eyes. And i love it when she looks into mine. I offer her a look at my soul.

Make triangel on face. Left eye to right eye to lips. Clock wise or counter clock wise at reasonable pace.

[postempestas]

Niiice. I'll sure try it with my gym daddies, but I'll make that triangle sharper looking under their hips too :))
