There is something that makes you know when you have that direct eye contact with a person, even though they might stand meters away from you and you are surrounded by other people too.
What makes you know when you have that eye contact? Because even if there is someone that is standing almost right behind me I know when someone that is standing let’s say 6 meters away is looking at the other person or when they are looking at me.

I am naturally shy and do not make prolonged eye contact. I grew a beard during lockdown. A magnificent mane if I do say so myself. My wife hated it and asked everyone for their opinion (” Tell him it looks awful”) Most folk think i suited it. Anyway one day one of her friends turns up for a socially distanced walk. I think her friend is quite attractive but I’ve never really flirted or anything because … what’s the point? I go to meet her while my wife is getting ready. I look her in the eyes thinking “Go on – comment on the beard, everyone else does”. I don’t break eye contact. Suddenly everything goes out of focus except her eyes. I can tell from them that she’s smiling. It seems to last for minutes but in reality probably only a few seconds. My wife approaches and breaks the spell. Her friend looks down at the ground, still smiling, and stretches her arms overhead.
That is my eye contact story.
