When is the last time you really thought about the eye contact that you’re giving to people?
Chances are, you’re sending off signals you don’t want to.
For example, if you don’t give people enough eye contact you can seem rude. You also make the person feel as if they are boring, and that you aren’t interested - even if that’s not the case.
On the other hand, if you give them too much eye contact it can seem aggressive. They may become intimidated, and quite frankly, think you’re being an ass.
So what is the right amount of eye contact?
Well, it’s honestly a complicated answer. It can change with the culture you are in, as well as the situation.
