How to Make Eye Contact

Choose a neutral zone to train your eye contact skills. For example, a party would be perfect. Crowded spaces make the interlocutor feel safe. And they must always feel in control of the situation.

Also, don’t insist if the other person doesn’t answer.

Think about something to say before you reach out to talk to them. And learn to distinguish between different types of eye contact.

• If they squeeze their eyes, they study you. 
• If their pupils enlarge, they enjoy spending time with you.
• And if their forehead wrinkles, they might find your presence inappropriate or uncomfortable.
