Dating Essentials: Making Eye Contact – 5 Key Reasons

As has been said many times, the eyes are the windows to the sole. Because the eyes are so individual, it is important to keep eye contact with another person. Keeping eye contact is so important because it lets your date gauge how you are responding to who they are and what they are saying. If you look away, they will become lost and uncomfortable with you. Gaze into their eyes and the person will feel you penetrating their sole.

Yes, I am paying attention

Making thoughtful eye contact is critical when you are dating. If your eyes start to wonder it is very easy for your date to think you are not paying attention. You don’t want to stare but your eyes will quickly tell your date if you are interested in what they are saying or not. Unfortunately, this eye characteristic is fairly difficult to control so you will need to pay attention to your thoughts not wondering.

Use your ‘I am interested’ sparkle

One of the better aspects to keeping eye contact is that you can most definitely show that you are interested in your date. This is not generally something you have control over. If, however, a special spark is there for your date, keeping eye contact is a must so that they know you really enjoy their company.

What lies behind those eyes?

As the eyes are the windows to the sole using them to create a bit of mystery is a way to draw your date in. Working your eyes so that your date sees a little mystery in them is a great way to keep them guessing. If you don’t have the eye contact, it will be a bit difficult to get this across.

Reveal the fire within

A sultry, pouting or “puppy dog” eye glance is sometimes all you need to convey an allure that most dates will find difficult to ignore. Grab their attention with a sultry look and hold their attention. If you are looking for something that will stay in the mind of your date a pouty look is a good way to do it.

Show them your depth

Somebody with dark black eyes is often said to have deep limpid pools of thought and emotion. If you can make contact with these eyes you are half way home to making a positive date a reality. Often all you will need is one good deep contact and your eyes will hold your date spell bound for hours.

Work at it

In most instances, using eye contact as an element in your dating hand bag is something that is learned. Sure, it comes easier to some then others but practicing a bit never hurts. One thing is for sure, if you do not keep eye contact you will lose your date’s interest and the ability to impact them in a meaningful way. Practice on a friend (opposite sex is best) but always keep eye contact even if they start to glaze over.
