Sometimes I just don’t want to look at faces. Sometimes not even my own— I have to force myself to meet my own eyes. In public it’s either no eye contact or just a furtive glance. At work I catch myself accidentally drifting my eyes somewhere else like the floor or a random tool bag.

I know we’re all put together differently but this seems to be something a lot of people now have.

I hate looking at faces. For me it is because we do not look the way i think we should. We look wrong.

Do cartoon faces look more right?

No they are about the same. Except for anime, which is way worse, mostly because of the eyes being exaggerated.
