I don't, is it because they're thinking of someone else? Why, is there some rule to this?

  • Ancestors use to feed each other mouth to mouth like many animals still do. If you look at those animals they close their eyes when they take bite of something.

    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions

    Pretty much. Back when the planet was a bit more feral/prehistoric, most things eaten were still alive so the eyes closed as a protection mechanism. Those that didn't do this more often suffered eye damage/blindness. Being blind in a dangerous world was to become lunch... selected out.

    During a good kiss, a feeling of pure relaxation occurs.. you know? I'd feel a little odd if my partner stared at me while we kissed... Or visa-versa.

    so, when you kiss and close your eyes you are diving in blindness to find the real love...May be?

    Because I'm thinking of the girl at the Starbucks I go to, and I'm trying to forget that it's really a blow up doll.

    Purely speculating here

    but maybe it has something to do with the old myth

    The Loss Of 1 sense enhances the other remaining senses. ?

    your sense of feeling , connecting on that level might somehow be enhanced.

    That it ain't no sin to be glad you're alive

    And we can´t forget we closed our eyes when dreaming...
  • westsidepiewestsidepie Posts: 627
    Vision is a dominant sense and it take a lot of processing in the brain. With your eyes closed you focus more on the feeling, which becomes more intense because vision is not overshadowing the experience. You know how they say blind people have other senses heightened.

    I agree and for the most part, I kiss with my eyes closed. But there are some instances when having your eyes open and looking directly into the eyes of your significant other can be very, very intense....and heightens everything else that much more.

    for me anyway.......
    believe it or not, we don't "need" anything. that is only the spoiled brat in us trying to fill some temporary solution to an emptyness that does not exist.

    According to meditation research, meditating while staring into the eyes of a partner is very stimulating for brain activity.

    Sometimes one has to squint durning the kiss to see what the other person is doing.... LOL.....
    sometimes you get caught squinting, which really means they were kissing with their eyes open, it usually goes straight to sex at that point!
