Today, I'm a shy guy normally, and when I talk to my friends I don't keep eye contact so I always look down even when I'm listening. My friend asked me why I always look at her boobs. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I realized just how bad my problem with making eye contact is, when I caught myself looking the other way when the singer in a music video looked directly at the camera. FML
Today, I failed an oral speech because "I didn't look up once." The problem was, every time I looked up, my teacher looked down. Every time I looked down, she looked up. FML
Today, I realized just how shy and awkward I really am when I averted my eyes to avoid making eye contact with someone who turned out to be a cardboard cut-out. FML
Today, I went out to lunch with a girl I like and her best friend. We had a good time, even talked for a few hours at the restaurant, but after we left, she stopped talking to me. Her friend told her that I kept staring at her chest; I was trying to see what her pendant was. FML
Today, while looking through pictures of my boyfriend and me on Facebook, I noticed that in practically every single one featuring my best friend, his eyes are directed down her shirt. FML
Today, I decided to step out of my comfort zone and talk to my coworker because people have been saying I’m too shy. I say, "Hey" to a girl and she made fun of my voice. She’s the one who told me to talk more. FML
Today, I had to explain to this really intimidating girl that I wasn't giving her a dirty look, and that it was just my face at rest. FML
Today, I sat next to my crush in class in a very loose, low-hanging shirt in the front (my mother had made me wear it, I didn't want to), and I felt so giddy because he kept staring at me in shock. No, not because I'm so beautiful, but because my boobs were hanging out. FML
Today, I was at the mall blasting music. I was wearing a nice shirt, and had my iPod in my breast pocket. I noticed a cute girl smiling at me, so I smiled back and as she started to walk over, I turned down my music while smiling. It looked like I was rubbing my nipple. FML
Today, I was riding a bus. After having a conversation with my friend, I looked down and saw a little boy looking at me. He asked, "Are you a boy or a girl?" As if that wasn't bad enough, when I responded that I was a girl, he said, "Oh. So, why do you have a boy voice then?" FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I find eye contact awkward and creepy too, I hate the fact that one teacher at my school told me not making eye contact is a sign of a liar or someone who has something to hide and pointed out another student who makes very good eye contact. I'm just shy but since she said that I always feel guilty when I look away now!! And the girl she pointed out happened to be real bitchy and known for bullying her friends! I really dislike that teahcer.

It happens sometimes I try to cut guys a break cause even I zone out sometimes. But eye contact is very important especially in business aspect body language and eye contact says everything about somebody. It's very important in job interviews too. So try to practice that i know it sounds weird but it's something you need. Also you have nothing to be shy about people love outgoing personalities. :)

That sucks. I know it's embarrassing and you should try to explain it to her. That being said, if you're still a teenager, you're going to have to grow out of that. As an adult, it is very rude not to have eye-contact when speaking to each other, both in your personal and business life. You will never get a job no matter how smart and how great your resume is, if you don't learn to look at person's eyes when speaking to them.
