Do girls like eye contact?

devin2002
Lately, I've been wondering about whether or not eye contact is an effective way to show kindness and display confidence when talking to women. For as long as I can remember, I've always had trouble maintaining eye contact with women because of how shy I can be. And while I know this isn't the right thing to do, I sometimes end up stonewalling women even though I don't mean to and sometimes my interactions with women can be, for lack of a better word, cold. I suspect that can make me seem intimidated and uninterested. However, lately I've been getting into the habit of making eye contact with every woman that I come across and end up having a conversation with, and I naturally just end up smiling too because of how shy I can be. It seems like women like it and usually end up making eye contact and smiling back at me. Do women really like eye contact and a smile during a conversation? I have a few pictures posted on my profile to give you an idea of what I look like if it helps (I'm actually smiling and looking at the camera in one of them). I would love to hear any feedback. :)
