    I do this with my girlfriend sometimes. Not sure how it started, but once in a while now one of us says “hey, wanna touch eyes?” and then we touch eyes. It’s actually not easy, you have to find the right angles.

      Unhygienic as fuck man. We don’t share eye makeup because you can catch weird stuff from people’s eyes. Stop doing that

        My roommate is always complaining about his contacts drying or running out of new ones, and every time I cringe a little bit because I hate things touching my eyes. Even eye exams freak me out, but I only have to deal with weird things happening to my eyes when I get them. I’ve been trying to convert him back to glasses, but he won’t listen.

          While this is true, I was still grossed out when my wife used to repeatedly borrow my toothbrush… Like yeah, we’d kiss and exchange many more bodily fluids, but it’s not like we’re scraping each other’s teeth and digging between gums and teeth when we’re kissing…

              Fortunately I’ve been to a cardiologist recently and found my heart is fine. Still don’t know what was wrong with me for several months, but it wasn’t that.

    … I am a guy, and apparently I have significantly … thicker, fuller, natural eyelashes than most.

    Or at least this is what several (now ex) gfs have told me, over the course of my roughly two decades of dating… that they are actually jealous of them. One joked about me being an eyelash donor to her, ala being a kidney donor or something like that.

    Also, several of them, independently, as in… different cities, they aren’t in the same social group, come from significantly different backgrounds…

    They would ask me to do what they called ‘butterfly kisses’ which is basically just fluttering your eyelashes together, at not quite as close as this range, but basically just 1 cm further back.

    … Can anyone tell me if this is a thing that happens to other people, or has my life (and love life) just been very weird?
