Do your eyes sting when you look at other people in the eyes?

??? mines do!

If you are uncomfortable about eye contact then focus on their nose instead. It gives the same impression without the freaky feeling :3

mine feel like they're going to water when i look at other people

I have never heard of this. I don't really have a problem making eye contact. I actually feel really rude if I don't look people in the eyes.

Others do, that's why they seek advice.

my eyes water when i'm going through large crowds, i.e. the mall.

I can emphatise with that. Are there any specific observations which make your eyes water? Usually, I won't bother with looking at people at all unless they get in my way, and focus on my destination instead.

It might help...

no, just makes me extremely uncomfortable.

Do you get out much? Maybe it's because of the different air conditions in certain environments which is causing your eyes to dry out and hurt?

it doesn't literally feel like my eyes are stinging, but figuratively speaking this is a good analogy. it's like staring into the sun too long.

No, I don't really get out much. Maybe I'm just allergic to people? lol.

oh god i used to get it all the time...

i thought it was allergies it makes you look like you're crying ur eyes just water and it tingles a bit...

its embarrassing though

Just imaging someone is looking at me sometimes makes my eyes water. I'm very strange.

YES!!! i dont know why it makes but usally when im alone and im at the store/mall.

I get the same thing, doesn't really sting,but I always get the watery eye thing.

I get the watery eye feeling, and I think thats because I am focused so much on TRYING to make eye contact that I don't blink enough and my eyes start to water. Sometimes I even worry that they will notice if I blink to much, or some outrageous thing like that.

Same for me.

I think it has happened to me a few times though I usually not even look people in the eyes because it freaks me out and makes me feel like I'm staring.

Yep, same here.

That actually makes sense. This happens to me when walking between classes in the halls, or when I'm very stressed about being visible, etc. My eyes feel like when you stick your head out of a car and the wind blows on them. I think I squint a bit too, which in retrospect must look pretty weird.

It's such a weird feeling. It's like blushing in the sense that it sometimes comes without an tangible feeling of anxiety, and it's not something you can just stop. I don't think it lasts long though.
