I dunno if this really goes here cause I don't know if it's bad manners or not...

But am I the only person that can't make eye contact with someone for more than a couple of seconds?

I look at someone's eyes then I have to look elsewhere like 2 seconds later. It freaks the crap outta me!

hahaha yeah. i have a hard time with it..

a couple years ago my friends dad told her i never can make eye contact with him and it makes him nervous. So now every time i see him i try to make eye contact and it is that much harder

Lol eyes can be a really scary part of someone to look at...
I find if i am not attracted to someone i can look them in the eye but if there's attraction there i turn to jelly and do anything i can to look the other way. lol

I have the same problem! If I don't fancy someone I am ok but if there is attraction there I get all concious

I find continual eye contact quite offensive...specially from a man.

I sometimes have a problem with it but it depends on who I am looking at. It does get to a point though where it becomes really unconfortable.

Ha!! I usually tend to intimidate people Cause I look at them Directly in the eye and they turn and look all around my face except my eyes.

I with make eye contact with people, but lets face it, you can't look at there eyes for the whole converstaion - they will think you are a nut job.

I just look away, and flick my eyes back to their's every now and then
