"What is more difficult: looking into someones eyes when telling how you feel, or looking into someones eyes when they tell you how they feel?" - Anon
I have always had a hard time keeping eye contact with a person. It's not that I'm lying or anything, I just feel very vulnerable looking into peoples eyes unless I'm 100% comfortable with them. It's always been a weird habit of mine. I feel like by looking into their eyes and seeing the truth and emotions that their eyes show but they don't say makes me feel like I'm invading their privacy. It's weird. I've always felt like that too. So it's not something new to me.
As far as which would be easier? I find that It would be easier to look into a persons eyes when they're telling me how they feel. Simply because I would know if they are lying. If I'm face to face with them I can see if they are being genuine with me. It's nice to hear the truth of how they feel, but to also see the truth of how they feel. Whether it's someone expressing undying love, or you're being broken up with, I would want the courtesy of being able to see the truth shining in their eyes.
I would have a much harder time looking them in the eyes while I admitted my feelings. I am pretty closed mouthed with how I feel to begin with. usually I'm the strong person who admits my feelings only to myself and those I really honestly and truly trust. So for me to look into a persons eyes when I'm admitting my feelings to them would make me twice as uncomfortable.
