Hello everyone! So I was wondering if there is a biological reason why it’s so intense to look into someone’s eyes. Aside from a romantic partner or close friend when you stare at someone and they stare right back into your eyes it always gives a weird physical sensation. I’ve read primates normally avoid eye to eye contact so I wondered if it has anything to do with human behavior too.
