| Post subject: | Eye Contact with Jokes? |
Just curious what the best advice is regarding eye contact when making a joke around a woman- should it be done or not? I ask because I notice that I'm pretty good at making eye contact with women while meeting them, during the rapport stage, and even when negging, but if I make a general situational joke I'm usually looking straight ahead at nothing in particular- especially if I'm in a group. I know that eye contact shows confidence, which is important, but I've also wondered if doing it when making a joke makes you appear too needy (i.e., could be construed as you watching her to make sure she laughs). Also, I make sure to have a confident tone behind my jokes- they're said with force, with the knowledge that what I say will be funny, and are always audible- but I rarely make eye contact while saying them. Any thoughts? And would there be any differences between one-on-one and group conversation with this issue? |

Like any kind of body communication, it's how you make eye contact that matters. Make confident eye contact. Don't ask me how, just do it. "Your body can do a lot," if you don't think so hard about it. |

Do you think eye contact should be held during the entire joke then? If it's in a group, with whom, your target? |

I hold eye contact with everybody, straight into their eyes. Shows my dominance and control. |
