Hi fellow redditors! I'm a long time lurker of /r/seduction and first of all I wanted to thank you all for your wisdom.

Now I just wanted to tell you a short story/FR on keeping eye contact, and how it's a powerful and maybe underrated tool.

I've been on a trade fair for 2 weeks now, and i've been improving on my eye contact in this event, I used to be the kind of person that avoided it, but now I'm loving it and practising every day. It's still hard but i'm getting to the point where people are "un-locking" their eyes first.

Of course, I'm focusing only on girls, and I came to the realization in 2 special moments that this really works:

1st moment: I lock my eyes in a girl that is walking through the hall, I think of this as the most epic eye contact battle i've ever had, i think the girl walked almost 10 meters, and as she was almost getting to the point where she was going to give me her back, she smiled in a very peculiar and friendly way, it felt good.

2nd moment: Two girls come close to the booth next to mine to ask for something, I constantly try to keep direct eye contact with both, until I notice that one of them is slightly smiling when I look at her, I immediately lock my eyes into her, and a couple of seconds later, she gives me this full smile, whispers something to her friend and they both come to me, 2 minutes later I'm # closing the girl that gave me the smile.

So, that's all I wanted to tell about my little quest into keeping eye contact, it might not be the best story ever, but it might an eye opener or just a reminder for fellow sedditors.

PD.: Please share your stories about eye contact. thanks!
