Or do you not look at her and look elsewhere? If he isn't looking at you when he talks does that mean that he is not interested in what you have to say when you are talking to him or that he is not interested in you at all and just there...I had a date last night and he didn't look at me at all when he was talking to me but when I was talking to him he glanced at me but most of the time he was looking else where and all around? What the heels?

Oh one minor detail its not like we are teenagers....he is 32 and I am 25...weird for a 32 yr old..I asked him if he was a shy person and he said he wasn't...but continued the no eye contact..yeah....when I left the date I was thinking and wanted to say "NEXT!"

Well I am shy when first getting to know a guy but at least I make an effort to look directly at a man while he is talking and vice versa! When dating, you suppose to make a good impression on the person you're with (in this case you) and that means having direct eye contact.
I don't know what his problem is but if I were you, I wouldn't wait around trying to figure out what it is. It might be time looking elsewhere... if you were to get serious with him, you could constantly have to deal with his non eye contact issues. I think you said it best. NEXT!

In good communication it is expected that you look into the eyes of the other person.
The eyes are the way to the soul.
Eyes that drift...have tendency to reveal whether a person is telling the truth or lying.
A shy person has trouble looking into the eyes of the other person sometimes.
A person with low self esteem also can't look into the eyes of the other person.
The eyes tell on us.
If you are trying to find out about someone, it is common practice to look into the eyes and to watch the body language of the other person. Sometimes our body language is speaking louder for us than our words do.
Confront the person while in communication with them. Honesty from the get go is just as important as it is during the relationship.
Let your wishes be known up front, before you ask the world. In the dating scene, what you get from the start tends to last a lifetime.
Men always ask what it is that a woman wants...so women, let them know from the start.
Don't hold back. It takes the guess work out of things and lets a person know another person at the onset...instead of having to find out later, when there might be heart break to contend with.
Eye contact in conversation is crucial. Watch the body language also.

He was most likely nervous and that is why he tried to avoid eye contact. I'm sure as time goes on and you get to know eachother better that he will begin to make more eye contact. However, if he continues to not make eye contact after a while just say something to him in a jokingly manner because he may not notice he does it.
Good luck!

When we look at the person (as our mothers taught us to do) we show respect, show interest in what the person is speaking about, show we care about that individual and their opinions
Of course this does not mean stare at the other person and if you are out in a very distracting place say like a night club or something like that they may look elsewhere
How many times have we been told eye contact is crucial in a job interview? having our children pay attention to what we are asking them to do?
Even my pet will look at me when I talk to her
Geez- he was a heel

There's something about people that don't look at you when they're talking to you that suggests that they're untruthful.
I guess it would depend on his age, whether or not he was interested. If he's real young and has wanted to go out with you for awhile, he's probably just nervous. If he's older, he's probably immature and scoping the area for new prospects
Depending on his age, it could be that he was just extremely nervous. If you liked him and would like to go out with him again,

Eye contact while talking or listening is a key sign of good communication; if the man is not interested he will often divert his attention elsewhere.

i could say shave and according to possibility get a hair decrease, yet different than for that, your visual charm shouldn't scare them away. attempt being outgoing, i've got infrequently met a woman who made the 1st flow or chased me down, it somewhat is often any different way around. So purely look beneficial, outgoing, and friendly. I assure you will see consequences.

Maybe he was nervous, that's the only thing I could think of. I have always believe that the only way you know if someone is paying attention to you is threw eye contact.

It is proper behavior to make eye contact when you talk to someone. Some of us feel unworthy. We should be encouraged politely to look at who we are talking to. It's especially important when we are bringing up our children. We are all equals.
