Yes, it another anti-social question thread.
The one that tested the ability to judge people's emotions by looking at their eyes got me thinking.
I can't look people in the eyes (for more than a few seconds). And not someone in particular, everybody in general.
I can think of a few reasons why i can't.
1. I'm afraid people might see through my eyes.
2. While growing up, i never wanted to look in my parents eyes too much. I am beter off not seeing their opinion about me all day. (after, let's say 20 years it really starts affecting you) It's a sort of defence mechanism.
Anyway, the thing is, i can't control this thing at all. My eyes involuntarely jump to another spot if i look too long. Forcing myself doesn't work very much. Sometimes it does, but rarely.
I do remember last year i went to a doctor to get a paper saying i can't do P.E. this year. When i got out of his office i thought: "Hey, i looked in his eyes the whole time. How the hell did i do that ? " What's even stranger is the fact that i lied to him almost the whole time. It's just that i had the papers saying what i might have even tho i don't; i'm in treatment and i'll probably never have it.
So, how to change ? How to look in people's eyes ?
