Does it feel uncomfortable to you?
When you're having a one on one conversation with someone

I don't know if it makes a difference if I'm standing up or sitting down
 
I do most of the time. #1. To let them know they have my attention. #2. To see if I can freak them out.
 
Dawg what type of soft thread is this, it shows respect when you look someone in the eye

Yeah I do. I don't know about it showing respect but it definitely shows you're interested in the conversation.

Just a tip, always do it with girls you're interested in.

It's 2015 and cats ain't looking each other in the eyes when they converse?

I'm a grown *** man. If I'm talking to another man. Imma look him up and down, then look him right in the eye and say what I gotta say. Clench ya eyebrows too and clap ya hands after every 2 words to let him know you not for the play play
 
I get people to wear a mirror as a medallion so I can look into my own eyes when I talk to them
 
I was taught early to avoid eye contact as a sign of respect (I'm Filipino). Now I try my best to keep eye contact but its hard to break the habit.
 
nope too nervous

I was raised to not do it out of respect. Not stare but give eye contact. Nigerian culture. I've learned to do it in business settings but it's weird.

You can just look at their forehead or in between the eyes. It's a trick I used.

Eye contact to engage your audience is imperative. I learned that the hard way during my first professional job when my manager called me out on it.

If you're talking to multiple individuals, make contact with each one and shift your attention routinely so no one is left out.
 
If its aman i stare in the eye too show superiority
If a woman i dont to show they can b my superior
 
Typically no. I look at something in their vicinity at their eye level. I'm socially maladjusted.

I think the uncomfortable part comes from not having much to contribute to the conversation

So it becomes more staring into a person's eyes than actual talking
 
What else am I supposed to look at? I give respect and I expect it back. I mean I don't stare at them, I don't want them to be uncomfortable, but they get the feel of my strength and confidence through my eyes and posture.
 
Sometimes it feels weird if someone is staring really hard or won't let you look away. You don't have to stare deep into my eyes the whole time.
