I do that too! I always look at them in the eyes and they prolly think I'm hitting on them especially since most Asians are known not to look at people's eyes when talking to them.
Really?? I always look people in the eye. I thought it's rude not to. Just as long as I don't stare
If you don't look at people in the eye when talking... what do you look at? Their nose?

🤣 Some keep switching their gaze or look on their hands or on the floor or something.
I stare though, 'cause I like looking at other people's eyes, I can't help it! But then I'll remember that it's rude to stare so I'll look at something else.

What's the difference between looking at and staring? it's not like your eyes switch modes and suddenly start emitting X rays. You're just looking in the same direction. And I'm accused of staring and of being intimidating (mostly because I also don't smile that much). But seriously I can't help it. I can't just smile "on command".

the other day someone at work stared at me for a full minute without saying anything, after I asked him if he had any questions. Then I asked if everything was OK and he stared at me for another 30 seconds before saying "yes, everything is fine." Then he walked away. [shudder]

Because staring is opening the eyes very wide and then looking straight into them!! (and then you don't move your eyes) Glaring is also bad...
Looking at is different! It's like the eyes are "clicking" with each other (whenever they meet, they click!) And when they click, it makes the other person know you're talking to them directly.... I feel.
Then again, I can't stop smiling (even now LOL) so I guess people don't feel intimated when I look at their eyes.

I don't talk that much at school, I only talk to people I know so they don't care if I don't look at them [img]http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc261/fjgs19/sig/72fcb355.gif[/img]

PFFFFT LOL HAHAHA
I'd laugh at him... "so,... my eyes are that ugly?" Maybe he was thinking whether he should ask this dumb question he has in his head.... or maybe not. Maybe he should! Oh no... what if she thinks he's stupid? But he should ask... No, he can ask somebody he knows. Okay... "yes, everything is fine" 🤣
I have sensative skin or whatever. So I rub my face all the time. Even if there is something in my hand (i.e. paint). This is also I reason I don't wear make-up.

hmm... gurls who don't wear make ups. really rare to see here.
Let's get Kickin' ...whatever that means
I'm OCD about certain things.
Every book, movie, anime, cd, video game, etc that I own is in alphabetical order. I'm OCD to the point that I get angry if its not. Also, I'm sort of a clean freak. I clean my room at weird and random times of the night. I used to have a messy room because I knew where everything was, but other people would clean it, and I would lose stuff, so I just got so angry I started doing it myself.
I also crack my neck and knuckles and toes. It's not really the bone thats cracking, it's Cartilage, so it's not really something to be too worried about.
Although if ya crack your neck to hard, you may throw it of its axis, which I have been told hurts alot.

Woah, is that what will happen to me? 🤣
My room is like an excavation site where
only I do not get lost.
Oh, and I have a habit of taking different
grips from the mouse/controller/whatever.
It feels like nothing
fits to my hand so I change my grip all
the time, sometimes when I play games
the most of my time goes to reassembling
my hands... My carpals make me go crazy. @_@

true! I find not wearing it weird =D but I am old and wrinkling, unlike the little children who wakes up so pretty.
