Do eyes really convey a message?
The other day I was talking to a friend of mine and for the 2nd or 3rd time ever, he was looking at me in this way that seemed like he adored me. There was just this look. If I didn't know any better, I'd think he was in love with me. So have you ever been looked at this way and did that person actually have feelings for you? And do you believe that the way someone's eyes look can express their feelings toward you?

The vast majority of communication is actually non-verbal. We get so much from visual and audio cues. Without body language or prosody, it can be hard to discern sarcasm, interest (or lack thereof) mood, sincerity, or even whether what the person said is a statement or a question.
We are, so to speak, programmed to both transmit and receive these cues instinctively. While misunderstandings and deceptions are always possible, our instincts on these matters are usually correct.
In short, if you get the sense that someone likes you, they probably do.
I don't think so, but only from this story from my childhood.
Back in Jr high I was slow dancing with this girl I didn't like, she was just a cool person, but after the dance it was like she fell in love with me.
She would follow me around and try to put her arms around me in the hallways, she would flirt with me all the time, kiss my neck etc. One day I asked her why, and she said "The way you were staring deep into my eyes at the dance."
I was just looking into her eyes, as I do with everyone, it shows respect to look people in their eyes and I was raised to always do so. I didn't mean anything by it, but she took it as having some deep meaning to it.
I felt horrible when she realized I had no feelings for her.
Do eyes really convey a message? I believe it shows respect, nothing further.
I believe that eyes can convey a message. I've had similar experiences, but with a girl lol
sometimes looking in someones eyes can tell you if they are lying or not, but its pretty easy to get it wrong too
i guess it just takes practice
Eyes definitely convey a message. They can even tell you who is saved and who is not. Start looking at the eyes of those people you know that have not given their hearts to Jesus and then look at those you know definitely have and are living like they are. You will be surprised because it looks like they have no soul when they don't have Jesus and it looks like their eyes are vibrant and full of life if they do. Also, take a look sometime at a drunk or someone on heavy drugs. Look at someone that is really angry. You will see hate right in their eyes. Look at the eyes of someone that has had a good laugh. They look like they are dancing. Eyes definitely tell the story of the person who has them. Scripture says the eyes are the candle of the soul. How true.
yeah not paying attention
