This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

To them, you can hold eye contact, so it's working as they prefer.

Exactly. They want someone with the force of character, however small, to maintain eye contact. It isn’t an inherently positive trait, it’s simply a trait.

Right but the point being made is that some woman who want this, who say they want this... can't do it themselves, can't reciprocate it.

Huh. I always believed eye contact was simply looking people in the eyes, regardless of the direction of their gaze. They might have made the same mistake.
