I've been reading the starter posts and the "top posts if all time" links and have been trying to look everyone in the eye. I've noticed it's difficult to get anyone to look me in they eye, though. They either look away inmediately or just avoid looking at anyone in general. I always thought I was the only one who wouldn't make eye contact with anyone but there's a weird sense of comfort knowing almost everyone else is like that too. It's made it easier to try and find someone to make and hold eye contact with. Though, it gets frustrating at times, when I'm trying to practice and can't get anyone to make eye contact with :p
