I am with poetic on the make eye contact but don't hold it, thats desperate or creepy, I usually look up, make eye contact for enough time to eyebrow flash(subtle lift of the eye brows,traditionally used in recognition of a person) and enough time for her to see my smile and then break the eye contact so it doesn't look like your staring.
One of the worst habits I had, still kind of have, is that as someone who studies kinesics I tend to want to watch someone closely to read their body language completely but intently watching someone like that comes off as almost stalker staring and that kills your game. Its one of those things I have to self correct constantly.
LOL Yeah, you get past that, everything starts to become automated, you don't think about what they are sending the answer becomes obvious. In fact I can't even think of the small things to look for anymore, I just feel when someone is attracted. I don't observe body language at all anymore. Everything is translated without thought.
A good instance was tonight when I walked over to a friend and she was getting hit on by some guy. She had SOS written all over her body language. Neither of the guys picked up on it. I walked over put my arm around her and she smiled and looked up giving me a big thank you face as she worded it silently to me. I didn't even think about it, I came over and acted got rid of the pest and she was giving me plenty of love for it.
You will get to that point as well. I am not scared to make strong eye contact either, I rarely look away before them. It isn't that I am staring it's that I notice everything about her. I notice her little idiosyncratic behaviors, her personal quirks. I tell them what I see, they love a guy who notices them.
