This is FAR too simplistic. Those who are going through hell can appear aloof or unfriendly but can, in reality, be the kindest of people.
I avoid eye contact because I'm shy! I have aways been this way. It dosen't mean I'm hiding something!
Careful with body language reading. There are people with backpain and other physical issues who can move and sit only in a certain way.
We made this video to give you a fast, science-backed way to “read” people in 10 seconds—eye contact, microexpressions, body language, space, tone, and the power of thin slicing. What’s the first signal you notice when you meet someone—eyes, hands, voice, or distance? Share a real moment when your gut called it right (or hilariously wrong). Quick poll: Do snap judgments help you more than they hurt—Yes or No? I’ll pin the most insightful story and may feature it in a future video. If this helped, consider subscribing and turning on the bell so you don’t miss the next deep dive. —Penman
The very best example you can watch is a Politician. If you’re watching a video clip, watch with sound on, then watch it again with the sound off. Most politicians have tells and if you watch them enough you’ll know when they are telling the truth, exaggerating or lying.
I once applied for a secretarial job. The interviewer said, " We just laid off 3 secretaries, so we really need someone." Told me a number of things: 1. You didnt think it through that you needed secretarial when you laid off all three secretaries. 2. You were looking for one person to do the job of all three people before. 3. You waited some time before it occured to you and then decided to look for someone- meaning you couldnt admit you had made a mistake until the work had piled up. Needless to say, I told the interviewer I was not interested in the job.
I have a habit of putting my hands together behind my back, most likely because it was engrained into us in the military.
Beware of the comments about liitle or no eye contact. The eye contact may not be there because a person is autistic or has a visual impairment, or if they belong to a particular culture. Lack of eye contact in this case does not mean that the person is not friendly or insincere.
I don't take this to heart. I have often been misread, until they get to know me. Once they know me, they come to find out I'm genuine. Sometimes, because I'm honest, I offend people.
With adhd, it’s hard to focus eye contact while talking to someone. I have that problem. I’m not hiding anything.. it’s just hard to focus.
Too much eye contact makes me uncomfortable because it feels like they are invading me.
3:06 I don’t agree with this because people with Autism or just some people in general have extreme difficulty with making and keeping eye contact. I know this because personally I do have a difficulty with making and keeping eye contact especially with new people, so I don’t personally agree with this one.
I have aspergers syndrome which makes me struggle with this twice as much as a regular person
I can't stand it when someone stands so close to me while talking and Ill step back to show you are juuuust a little too close buddy, then they take a step forward, or while walking they damn near walk you off the sidewalk because they walk so close to you. Now if anyone does it, I use my index finger to gently push them back while theyre talking. Some people just can't talk and think at the same time.
I have autism and have a hard time maintaining eye contact, not because I find it uncomfortable, it's just hard, and I spend a lot of energy maintaining eye contact, but it's like they just slip out of focus. At first, when I tried really hard, I would stare at the people I was talking to, but then I found that if I looked at the tip of their nose, I could avoid staring at them, and my gaze became calmer. I could stay focused, and the people I'm talking to feel like I'm making normal eye contact, and both they and I relax more.
The eye contact forgot to mention people might have disabilitys or super shy where eye contact is difficult.. not everyone is hiding something I avoid eye contact because im autistic, its super hard to maintain that eye contact.. If i got to know that person for a long while, the eye contact will get better.. its not always a bad thing
If you apply this in every interaction good luck trying to live
I am polite, honest, and sincere. But I can't focus eye contact.
The tone and first words used in their speech, their body language how it communicates. Those are the first things I see when I meet a person for the first time
Their eyes ~ the windows of their soul .
