why does holding eye contact feel rude

[swt]

i avoid doing eye contact not because i cant but because it just feels rude , it feels like theyre gonna think im tryna challenge them in some way

i love challenging people for no reason at all so i guess i just paranoid myself with my own actions

 

[swt]

is it all in my mind or do people actually think youre challenging them

 

[swt]

not that i care anyway, i just got used to not doing it

Idk bro I can’t hold eye contact with anyone except my mom
It’s something I struggled with growing up and still can’t do

It's rude if you hold it too long when outside of a conversation.

I used to stare everybody dead in the eyes when I was younger but eventually stopped doing that because I realized I looked like shit and don't like drawing attention to myself.
Now I avoid eye contact unless I have to talk to someone and hate being looked at. Try to keep to myself as much as possible. Kinda hard to do sometimes, if you're treated like a criminal and interrogated by security staff at the grocery store. Would become invisible if I could to not deal with people.
