When I try to make eye contact I don’t know what eye to look at and I find myself feeling even more awkward

If you're into manifestation and haven't read Align and Receive by Luna Veyra yet... what are you doing it's unreal.

I learned to comfortably make and break eye contact throughout conversations when I started teaching. The idea was to intentionally make every student feel spoken to by briefly making eye contact with them, so it got me used to it. I find myself starting looking at them, and then looking all around the room immediately after while speaking

when I'm talking to someone my eyes are everywhere but making eye contact with them but when they are talking I make eye contact and I think about it while I do it and make sure to look away periodically to not come off as weird

When I detect a sign of hostility in the person expression I go into mental freeze I understand what you say

I want to say thank you for your videos, you are helping me so much with my granddaughter who has autism. You are a true blessing to so many I'm sure. God bless you for your openness and kindness in sharing.

When I'm upset with someone, I've noticed that I will not look them in the eye at all. I otherwise have no issues with eye contact. Also, I have figured out I enjoy rubbing my bare feet on good carpet as a way to regulate 😆 seems silly but it works for me 🙂

I can definitely relate to the eye contact part! Holding eye contact will distract me where I won't be able to listen and process what's being said.

Thank you for putting this into words. It bothers my boss so bad and he will try to step in front of me or do stuff to make me look at grab my attention but I’m listening by not looking directly at him. I also close my eyes during intimacy. Otherwise I can’t focus. By not looking I’m way more in tune with my body.

flat tone and affect— being told we’re mean and rude when we’re just existing. direct communication— we see clarity as kindness, indirect communication is unclear and confusing which drains mental energy because we have to spend time trying to interpret it.

I have no problem with eye contact, but I tend to stare like that 😳

I’m not allowed to make eye contact. It’s perceived as menacing, so I unmask that behavior and intentionally break eye contact frequently in conversations.

Met an amazing guy on hinge, spoke every single day for 5 weeks straight, thought things were going well. Then we met twice and on the 3rd date, he had an autistic shutdown or something, asked to be alone and i gave him space and left, he then broke up saying something about heart vs paper. I was extremely heartbroken. Then I reached out last week, explaining that I’ve been reflecting, and noticed we communicate differently, and the fact that I valued our time, and appreciate the way he shares his thoughts, still no reply, but he turned on the whatsapp read receipts after turning them off during the break up . Im not sure what that means exactly. Can someone autistic please shed some light on this? I am in love with everything about him and I hope he can see that.
