For deaf people it's different but so many so called normal people want eye contact for no reason. I always say I have ears I can hear. I hear it's because that's how they know you are listening and if you don't look at them, it means you are being dishonest, hiding something, or you don't like them. Talk about paranoia. I don't think that way. Then I have also heard too much eye contact means you're lying so this is all confusing. I know people look away as they speak and look back at the person.
