They say the “eyes are the windows to the soul,” but turns out they are also the windows to the heart. There have been many studies on how nonverbal cues from the eyes affect our behavior towards one another. When it comes to finding love, apparently how you communicate with your eyes can make all the difference.

Prolonged eye contact can cause attraction

Eye contact is a powerful stimulator of affection. A study published in the Journal of Research and Personality in which two opposite sex strangers were asked to gaze into each other’s eyes for two minutes found that this was enough in some cases to produce passionate feelings for each other. So much so that one of the couples even got married a year later!

The more dilated your pupils, the more attractive you seem

According to a study by Edinburgh University, women are attracted to the size of a man’s….pupils? The results revealed that women, during the fertile part of their cycle, found pictures of men with enlarged pupils more appealing. This is likely connected to the finding that our pupils dilate when focused on someone we find attractive.

Eye contact makes us feel good and connects us

Prolonged eye contact has been thought to release phenylethylamine, a chemical responsible for feelings of attraction. It has also been thought to release oxytocin, the love chemical most closely associated with longer term bonding and commitment.

Looking at each other’s eyes is a sign of love

Studies by scientists from the University of Chicago’s Departments of Psychiatry and Psychology and the University of Geneva analyzed the visual pattern of college students looking at photos of attractive people. The study found that people tended to fixate on the faces of the images of people that elicited a feeling of romantic love and tended to fixate on the body of those that elicited sexual desire.

Eye contact indicates lasting love

A famous experiment by Harvard psychologist Zick Rubin found that couples who were deeply in love after several years looked at each other 75% of the time while talking versus the average 30-60% of the time. So if you want to make this Valentine’s Day especially romantic, don’t just get chocolates and flowers but gaze into your partner’s eyes for a while. You may be surprised with a sudden passionate connection!

How do you know a guy likes you but is shy?

Shy guys will be more talkative when they can review their responses. Shy guys are usually not all that open in-person where they can't think through everything they want to communicate. If this guy gets a lot better at conversation when you text them or chat over social media, it's a big sign that they're into you.

To know if a shy guy likes you, watch if he's more nervous around you than he is around other people. You should also look at his body language for signs of nerves, like crossed arms or gesturing, which may suggest he’s hiding his feelings. When he’s nearby, watch out of your peripheral vision to see if he steals glances at you when you’re not looking, which will show he’s into you. If you want to find out how he feels towards you, ask him for a small favor, like carrying your heavy bag, since if he goes out of his way to help you he probably likes you. Alternatively, pay him a compliment, such as “Thanks for helping me with that math problem,” and watch for his response. You may notice that he clams up, appears embarrassed, or stammers if he likes you. For tips on how to ask a shy guy out, read on!
