In my opinion I think that when a man is having a conversation with a woman and he keeps constant eye contact with her then it must mean that he is actualy paying attention to the conversation, however some pals of mine argue that it really means that the guy is either A:interested in the woman or B: not really paying attention.
Well?
I know of a couple of guys that carry pretty good eye contact with me and I just assume that they are paying attention to what I say which I find to be good, honest, and respects that they are not looking elsewhere.

Good eye contact is great, but paying attention is not all about good eye contact. Would you rather have a conversation with someone who gives great eye contact, but has no insight into what you are relaying to them? Or, would you rather talk to someone who might look around a bit, but who listens well and gives great advice. I think a good conversationalist has the ability to put themselves in the talker's position and come up with helpful solutions to problems. Personally, too much eye contact is intimidating for me, and I am a guy. You can't just be looking at someone's eyes during the ENTIRE conversation. I think it is okay to look around just a little bit.

In my opinion, eye contact is key when talking with women. It shows interest. I don't think it has to be constant. But I think you should have good eye contact during conversation.

Maintaining good eye contact is important, but it can be challenging. That's why I wear my shades.
