eye color

[drydem]

So, I realized something. While I make a lot of eye contact with people, I have a tendency not to actually look at the eyes. I don't know that I could tell you the eye color of 1/10th of my friends. It's not that I'm not looking at the eyes, but I seem to look more at what they are communicating rather than what they look like.

Making eye contact, me thinks...

... is a lot different than creepily staring people in the eyes to discern color.

Ditto here. Eyes are the windows to the soul. When you're sitting looking through windows, the color of the frame isn't what you notice, it's the scene outside.

I agree and well said. I look for expression in someone's eyes and not the external color.

Mine are hazel, they change colors.

I do the same thing. Then I feel bad for not knowing, because it's one of those things you're supposed to notice, especially when you pay attention to eyes as much as I do.

Likewise.

What color are your eyes, anyway?

I'd be interested to know if anyone out there in LJ land knows.

I think they are brown.

Hmmm.

I think I do the same thing. While the first thing I usually notice about someone is his/her eyes, I'll be darned if I can tell you what color they are!
