If you have a problem, look at their forehead. Tips from my high school drama class.

No.

Most people get over it in after their teens so don't sweat it if you do.

Though the major back when I did military service had a hard time with that. How does that work?
I wouldn´t call him stupid, but let´s just say he´s unlucky when thinking...

I have a problem but it doesn't sound as bad as what the OP is describing. I tend to suck at conversations in general so I have to concentrate quite hard to think up the right words to use, and whenever I do this I tend to look down or away, brekaing eye contact. If I'm talking to my friends or whatever then I don't have this problem because I don't have to think as much but yeah.

No problem here.

It does sound like a confidence issue which you need to fix, especially if you talk to girls. They love eye contact.

some girls like it when you make eye contact continuously because it's not a typical trait and it looks like you're really paying attention.

I give eye contact or I stare at their face, not necessarily into their eyes though.
Can you dig it?

eye contact with drop dead gorgeous girls is sooo difficult for me =(
Yea that looks just like Kang Min... amazing game sense... and uses mind games well, but has the micro of a washed up progamer.

don't have a particular problem with it.
you shouldn't stare at people 100% of the time anyway.

This use to be my problem... I got it fixed! Just have lots of staring contests, trust me, it works. I now creep girls out because I stare at them in the eyes, even when not talking to them. They say my eyes sparkle so they keep looking

;D

I can easily maintain eye contact for longs periods of time, but if the other person starts wandering his/her eyes off, i take it as a hit they dont want to be looked in the eyes anymore. I break eye-contact then.

Some girls get nervous (in the good way) when i look at them though : )

Im a banker.. so pretty much no.. and I'd say that It's prolly the best way I have for flirting with a girl is by looking at her eyes... kinda like saying "I wanna $@&!(@$ that thang all night baby"

But yeah, Eyecontact is really really important.. have ur friends help u outwith it .. it isnt that hard, all u have to concentrate on is by ACTUALLY paying attention/listening to the person ur tryin to look at..

i send my overwhelmingly warm, positive, loving, and comforting vibe towards them through my eyes. and they receive it with there's. all the words that are exchanging is just background.

Just be confident in yourself. I used to be shy back in the day and people don't even believe me when I tell them that. Try beginning conversations with people you don't know and just talk to them about bullshit.
