I have a boyfriend but neither can I nor he look into my eyes for long but I do it with my ex. Why?

If the relationship is not very old then it can definitely happen my ex use to find it difficult to look into my eyes for long unless it was some romantic conversation some guys are not good at keeping the eye contact.. maybe there is little bit of shyness between you too

i remember this guy i was dating and i use to find it so hard to look at him on video call because he was damn handsome and it use to make me blush and he realised it later then he use to keep teasing me for it for fun so what you mentioned isn't anything to be worried about

Nervous? I actually have hard time looking people in the eye for long period if time as well since makes me uncomfortable. I eventually have to break eye contact and look somewhere else while speaking to them.

This means they aren't interested in you, at all. This sign of eye contact means that the person is consciously making an effort to avoid looking at you. This can mean that the person is least interested in you and is doing everything in their power to avoid any romantic relationship.

Something inside both of you that's reserved with the other person. Only you and he can unpack that but this is an important one to dig deep on.

You are prob more comfortable with the ex

That’s interesting I don’t know though

No idea, I look into the eyes of every stranger I have ever spoken to, its actually rude to not look at the eyes of someone you are talking to. So if you can’t look into the eyes of your own boyfriend …. I don't know, is ther something you feel guilty about? I mean that’s the only thing that springs to mind. Other than that as I initially wrote I have NO idea!

It is possible that you and he do not share the same level if trust and intimacy as you and your ex shared. Give it time, new love is like a freshly planted seed, it will either take root and grow or it will wither and die.

You both are shy with each other likely because you might not know each other too well, while you and your ex know a lot about each other because of your history.

Shyness, there not shyness with you ex

Shyness perhaps?
