the other day i was introduced to a mutual friend of mine. i’d never met him before, but was actually able to look at him a bit.

this sounds weird, i know. the reason i was thinking about this is that i’m very neurodivergent, and I’m typically super uncomfortable with eye contact longer than a few seconds. i found it surprising how easy it was to look at him, especially when i had no connection or anything to make me more comfortable. even my friend said she had noticed i was able to look at him and was proud of me.

it got me thinking…why was i more comfortable looking at him especially when i rarely look at others?

is there a psychological reason for only being comfortable making eye contact with certain people? especially since i had not known this man prior?
