It's as if they're not taking what they're saying seriously. :( |
It's hard for me though.
I can't look at people if I don't really know them, or if I'm nervous and/or embarassed (maybe I don't like what I'm wearing that day, or maybe I have cotton in my hair).

Well, when you look at someone right in the eyes, you show them that you care about them and what they're saying. It's just going to be better for the relationship, it will create good links (at least from my personal experience).
And when they look at you, you know they care. That's how I see it! ^^

I also get nervous looking at people in the eyes. I usually look at them for a second or two, just so they know that I'm paying atention and then keep looking wherever my eyes land. I get a little uncomnfortable when people keep looking at my eyes all the time as well.

OK, I admit, I don't always do that when talking with boys. With girls, it's different I guess! xD

Haha, wow! I did catch on to where you were going by what you said (better for the relationship, create good links), but eh! I can't look at anyone in the eyes for very long - seems too intimite / personal for me. Hell, if I'm looking at a girl in their eyes the whole time in a convo, it's a safe bet I've got a hidden agenda... really though, the look back & forth works fine! Hell, that's how most people do it in my experience - in fact, I can recall all of the few convos I've had with prolonged eye contact!
OT: Ignorance! I can make a massive list on the subject, but it'll probably end up offensive (one may take it anti-Religion), so Ignorance sums it all up - definitely the #1 thing that pisses me off, on a consistent basis. Oh, school pisses me off, too.
