talk to me

recently i've been overly aware of where i look at a person when they talk to me, specifically up close.

when someone is talking to you, where do you look at them? their eyes?

yah, not me.

for some reason, i look at their mouth. is it because i'm trying to read what their lips are saying to me? any more importantly, do they realize that i'm looking at their mouth. oh no! they probably thing that there's something in their teeth.

i'm sure there's some pycho-babble reason that it's hard for me to look at someone in the eyes when they're talking to me. i consciously try to "fix" it and look them in the eyes, but instinct draws me back to their moving mouth.
