Ever wonder why those first few moments with a new date can feel electric? A recent study published in the Archives of Sexual Behavior reveals that sharing eye-contact during the first five minutes of a speed-date can significantly influence whether you hit it off or not. The study tracked the eye movements of 60 participants (30 men and 30 women) during 240 speed-dates. It found that couples who locked eyes more often were three times more likely to want to see each other again!
While being attractive also played a role, it turns out that receiving eye-contact—rather than just giving it—was a key predictor of attraction. So, next time you’re on a date, make sure you catch your partner looking into your eyes!
The results show that mutual eye-contact is not just a myth but a powerful signal of romantic interest. Women tended to be choosier, with attractiveness playing a slightly bigger role in their decisions. But for everyone, those shared glances were gold.
So, ready to boost your dating game? Remember, sometimes love truly is in the eyes!
