To ask do you close your eyes?

About 90% of the time while dtd I have my eyes closed. I can look at the various goings on, but if I were to lock eyes with DP I either feel like I'm a porn star or start laughing.

I wondered if it's just me that does it?

Sorry .... Tdt .... Errrrr What's that then?

Iwannalaylikethisforever · 20/01/2014 20:52

Doing the dance - sexual intercourse Grin

AnyFucker · 20/01/2014 20:52

Only when kissing and erm, finishing Grin

Iwannalaylikethisforever · 20/01/2014 21:02

Ohhhh ... Erm it's normally dark!!!! No eyes needed, however if dh happens to come home for lunch then, (just thinking) do feel alittle silly but eyes open ... I think. Oh I will have to pay more attention next time.

Let me see if i can remember that far back... Grin

Yes. And with kissing.

I hate making close eye contact. It is so uncomfortable it is almost physically painful.

Alisvolatpropiis · 20/01/2014 21:14

Eyes almost always closed.

There is no need for staring when both parties are pulling their most unattractive faces.

Kissing with eyes open freaks me out. It's like watching someone sleep. Weird.

I thought DTD stood for "doing the deed"

BaronessBomburst · 20/01/2014 21:29

Agree with DaisyChain01. Otherwise it's getting a bit to close to baby-dancing and we don't have any of that sort of shenanigans here. This is a respectable website. sometimes

everydayaschoolday · 21/01/2014 09:56

Blush my mistake in all my excitement Grin

formerbabe · 21/01/2014 09:58

I also thought it stood for 'doing the deed'.

'Doing the dance'?! How twee...are we not grown women living in the 21st century?!

RawShark · 21/01/2014 09:58

I opened mine the other day cos it suddenly occurred to me he might think I was blocking him out trying to think of someone else. Went ok, he seemed to appreciate it !!

UriGeller · 21/01/2014 09:59

I keep them closed. I think it makes me appear more 'into' it.
"You never close your eyes any more, when I kiss your liiiiiiips"

(Sometimes I am into it, but sometimes I feel a bit put out that dtd eats into my sleeping time)

PenguinDancer · 21/01/2014 10:03

We quite like it. DP esp comments on how much he loves catching my eye :o

It was uncomfortable for me at first but I've got the hang of it now.

Iwanna you do it in the dark?! but then you're missing seeing all the good stuff. I'm not as into dark shagging. Only in the winter mornings.

everydayaschoolday · 21/01/2014 10:03

it does show both alternatives in the MN acronyms list at the hyperlink above. Apologies if my 'twee-ness' has offended Hmm

PenguinDancer · 21/01/2014 10:04

agree it's 'doing the deed' though I do hate the term. Makes it sound like a repulsive chore.

KatnipEvergreen · 21/01/2014 10:05

Marital botheration.

CatAmongThePigeons · 21/01/2014 10:08

I always keep my eyes firmly shut, there's only so much closeness I can handle and eyes open goes beyond that.

Indeed Babe but in that case should we jsut call it shagging/fucking/whatevs, rather than reducing it to initials?? Grin

EauPea · 21/01/2014 10:26

I would end up cross eyed trying to focus on his eyes / face that closely Grin

CuntyBunty · 21/01/2014 10:30

I like to brazenly look him in the eye, while we go at it like knivesGrin

When kissing and "finishing", eyes closed. I hope DH doesn't look at my "orgasm face", I must say.

LividofLondon · 21/01/2014 13:36

I like lights on, eyes open when I'm fucking my blokey because I get a thrill from looking at his lovely body Grin But eyes shut when kissing (because it just feels odd if they're open) and when close to orgasm (I need to concentrate on the physical sensations and can get distracted otherwise).
