It is believed that a look can not only tell a lot about a person. If you look closely, you can understand how he feels, what kind of attitude he has towards his interlocutor, and what he is worried about. But this is a very subtle psychology. In order to learn to "read" a person by the eyes, it is necessary to take into account the direction of the gaze, the size of the pupil and the dynamics of its change, the position of the eyelids, the duration of eye contact, etc. These are very individual moments. However, there are views that are common to most. And their meaning is easier to interpret. And now I would like to tell you about a look familiar to everyone. Its highlight is a narrowed eye.
Concentration
Surely everyone knows how a focused person looks. His eyebrows frown, and his eyes are unknowingly fixed at a certain point in space. At this moment, a person is busy with his own thoughts, and it is better not to disturb him with information from the outside world. If at this moment one narrowed eye is noticeable (or both at once), then, most likely, it is most focused on any idea.
It is also important to consider behavior. If at the moment of his concentration a person was not calm, but looked away, as if he was unknowingly playing facial expressions, he experiences an impatient expectation.
Emotions
It is important to note that the squinted eye is often interpreted as a sign of secret explanation. Typically, this technique is used by representatives of the beautiful half of humanity, who love to flirt and flirt. Often, the head bends slightly to one side, and the corners of the lips slightly rise, forming a charming smile.
However, the squinted eye can be accompanied by other facial expressions - a raised eyebrow, frowning frontal muscles. It immediately becomes clear that this view expresses incredulity, aggressiveness, negative intentions or even a threat.
You can also express contempt with narrowed eyes. It is aimed at the interlocutor from top to bottom. And this can be done, even being below it. The gaze, directed from the bottom up, reflect a person’s desire to please his interlocutor. And many people involuntarily squint their eyes when they secretly follow someone or observe, not wanting to get caught.
Circumstances
If you want to interpret the look of the interlocutor, then you need to take into account the situation in which he appeared. The interlocutor narrowed his eyes at the moment when a person told him something? This means that he is really interested in the story and at the same time reflects on it, perhaps even formulates questions.
Is the gaze directed through the opponent? Thus, he shows his disrespect and demonstrates a lack of interest in him. And he does it on purpose. Most often, such a gaze is directed not above the head of the interlocutor, but below the chest. Such a "landmark" emphasizes its low authority for man.
But the narrowed gaze directed past the interlocutor is even worse. This look suggests that the person will not even try to create the appearance of interest in relation to the opponent. This characterizes him as an egocentric, self-directed person.
Directivity
I would like to talk about her a little more. The eyes are the mirror of the soul, and even the direction of the gaze can tell about the personality characteristics of a person.
Is your gaze fixed somewhere in infinity? This means that his interests and thoughts are concentrated on that which is very far from the subject of discussion. Most likely, speculative-abstract thinking, long meditations and the so-called self-digging are characteristic of this person.
A look through the opponent’s eyes indicates his high irritability. With this look, he emphasizes his disrespect for the interlocutor. If a person’s eyes look past an opponent at any particular point, then most likely he is an introvert. He is used to internal conversations with himself and very rarely comes into contact with someone, even if others are trying to talk to him.
But people who are characterized by a centered look, are distinguished by increased observation, specific thinking and practical attitude in life. Their eyes are almost always narrowed slightly, because almost every conversation, situation or incident is food for thought for them.
Eye movements
The look is really a mirror of the soul. If it is firm and unshakable, then the person who possesses it is characterized by determination and self-confidence.
However, too hard a look says something else. This gaze is peculiar to unceremonious, insightful, secretive, incredulous and aggressive people. Having come into contact with such a person, you can even notice how their range of view is narrowing. Such a gaze, often called piercing, is characteristic of forensics, investigators and prosecutors. It is accompanied by a sober-icy expression on his face, designed to demonstrate soullessness and composure.
Also, narrowed gaze in some situations may be characteristic of conspiracy. When a person has something in mind and wants to share his thoughts with his neighbor, he often demonstrates this with his whole appearance: he leans closer, narrows his eyes, and switches to lowered tones.
Another narrowed gaze may be wandering. A person who has narrowed his eyes and “scans” them with an interlocutor tries to give him an assessment, thus showing interest.
Male gaze
So, above we talked about the direction of the gaze and other features that can help determine some personal characteristics of a person. Finally, it's worth talking about the men's gaze. Indeed, many girls are interested in knowing how to determine mutual sympathy from it.
If a guy looks confidently, straight in the eye, then the young lady is interesting to him. And he counts on her attention. The more “predatory” the squint seems, the stronger is his desire to get a girl. Does he glance at her sideways? So, he wants to study it in as much detail as possible. And the look, set aside, suggests that he has not yet decided on his intentions. Or he has some secrets.
But this is not the full meaning of a man’s look. In addition to the above, it is worth remembering: if the squint is accompanied by a frowning eyebrow, then, most likely, the girl’s behavior does not suit the girl.
