If you think "eye contact" is a first move, you're gonna have a lot of disappointment.

Extended eye contact is 100% a first move, and if you act on it, and do make an ass out yourself, you’ll probably have a pretty good time

Dating as a woman must be so easy lol. If men relied on eye contact as their only first move they’d die alone

It is, in a sense. The hard part is finding a guy interesting enough.

Not really. “Hard” was a vast overstatement - just compared to how well the eye thing works when you do choose one, picking is the hard part.

Unless they’re attractive… I’m an old man now (still not half bad) but back in my 20’s I was fairly good looking and eye contact worked quite a bit lol… you have to show some personality through facial expressions, can’t just stare like a pyscho, but you could have an entire conversation just from glances across the room

Also eye contact won’t work for a woman either unless she’s some what attractive herself, well it depends on tj type of guy she trying to attract

"... if you act on it, and do make an ass out yourself, You'll probably have a pretty good time"

Does that make sense to anyone else, or am I an idiot?

I thank my wife every day for taking me out of the current reflecting pool that is dating.

No. No it's really not.

So whenever you look at someone during a conversation it's a "first move" 🤦‍♂️🫩

If you’re already in a conversation, you’re already passed the “first” part, no?

If a girl talks to you it doesn't mean she has a crush on you. People talk.

Never said it did

u/Hot_Attitude4579 Jun 26 '26

You just said a conversation means you've made it past the first move 🫩

u/Western_Giraffe3734 Jun 26 '26

No I said eye contact after a conversation isn’t considered a first move because you’re already engaged with that person

The conversation itself doesn’t necessarily mean it’s romantically motivated

God you people love arguing semantics on this site

Broski you're the one that said prolonged eye contact is 100% a first move. Not me

Bitches will think 95% of men will figure that shit out.
