Do you have trouble making eye contact during conversation with an attractive stranger?

My answer is: "No, I don't have any trouble."

This morning I was thinking about this and I realized that I'm really good at having a conversation with a beautiful girl and looking her in the eyes off and on during it. I don't just stare at her eyes because that would be awkward, but I'm good at looking away at the right times and looking back at the right times. I build a false confidence that she's not that hot and I'm just as good as her, which isn't so much false... because I usually am as good as her.

I think eye contact is important sometimes, like at job interviews and whatnot. I went through times in my life where I was kind of skitzofrenic and I could barely look anyone in the eyes at all, but over the years I became an expert at it.

Around a pretty girl I can do it just fine because I know for a fact that I'm usually as cool as she is pretty... if not cooler. So I usually do just fine. Besides... just because a girl is pretty doesn't mean I like her.

Actually yes, when I am talking to a stranger in general (not just someone I find attractive, but that does make it harder) I find it difficult to look into their eyes because I am shy. I have actually noticed this as a bad habit of mine, lately I've been trying to look at people more often so they don't think I'm blowing them off when I'm having a conversation with them.

I do have trouble, because I find directly looking into someone's eyes scary, since I'm a pretty timid and shy person.

I'm actually both. If the guy is someone I like, I tend to look away or dart my eyes around. If the guy was someone I hated or flamed me, I have no problem staring into their eyes to the end of time in hate.

not really. I have a tendency to look straight at people, and people don't like that, they think I am staring at them and being a creeper... but I'm just being polite and giving them my full attention =/

For regular conversations, I'm usually fine with it. If I feel like I might be attracted to them, it gets awkward. I guess I get nervous about how the conversation will go, so I just avoid it altogether.

One of the skills you need to make it in this world is eye contact. I keep eye contact with everyone I speak with no matter their level of attractiveness.

I'm generally fine with this unless it's someone that I don't like. If that's the case, then I try my hardest to look away. Usually though I prefer to be unnoticed so I won't look at anyone.

I look them right in the eye. But I have this thing where my stare is INTENSE. I mean like they think I tell them I love them when I look at them. I just have a really intense face and really "deep" eyes. So people usually have their eyes darting around especially because I am also quite the charmer.

I am a tremendous flirt and I make all sorts of eye contact. I'm also in sales and I am required to meet new strangers all the time. I pay attention to what they say and I listen and engage them. This requires eye contact.

I would practice just saying hello to pretty girls on the street for no reason. I got comfortable and used to just talking to strangers. Now it's the easiest thing in the world.

Yeah, I do. I guess its because I think my breath stank and I don't want to ruin it for me. But sometimes I do have eye contact.

No way doesn't matter how attractive they are or what they do. They are your equal so there is no reason to be shy. Look them in the eye and make a strong first impression. After all you know what they say about first impressions.

Unless I am quite familiar with people I am quite meek in nature and will avoid eye contact a lot.
Even when I get to know people it's difficult.
So I guess it would apply to attractive strangers as well.

Usually if it's a complete stranger I look at their eyes most of the time, or just past their face (as to seem I'm looking at them). Mainly because looking at someone's face/eyes is supposedly more professional (so they told us once) so I don't want to seem ultimately distracted/not paying attention to what the stranger is saying.
