Do you close your eyes while kissing?

I had one boyfriend who, for some reason, always kept his eyes open when we kissed. I’d get this strange feeling that I was being watched while we made out, only to open my eyes briefly to find him staring back at me. Not only was it disconcerting as hell, but it made me self-conscious. Was he picking apart my moves? Did I make some kind of funny face I wasn’t aware of? I’d be completely thrown for the rest of the night. I never received his calls again from then......it was a first kiss imagine heheheeeeeeeee!
What about you? Do you close your eyes? or do you prefer your partner to close or open eyes while kissing.

Hi Kwenge,
I keep my eyes closed from the start to the finish
I feel more private and also the eyelids droop down themselves when the pleasure is just too much (sigh)
But my hubby keeps his eyes open and insist that I do the same (arrrgh…) according to him, eye contact intensifies the bonding and makes it more forceful.

i close my eyes while kissing too. so that I don't know whether my partner's closing her eyes or not. It is said that when we close our eyes, we close our sense of sight, so that we can have more sensibility on the other senses, include there the lips. That is why I think kissing and close the eyes is more comforting than kissing and open the eyes

Yes I do and I would want my partner to do it as well. Its really disconcerting. I mean, how can one kiss opening his eyes. Doesnt it feel so odd!

i normally close my eyes when i kiss my boyfriend because it is hard to kiss when you on a cross-eyed position. haha. and you feel more pationate when you do it with your eyes closed. it is more sweet and romantic.. but sometimes i peek to see if he looks at me or closes his eyes too. haha!

I have never looked at a guy while kissing! if i want to keep my eyes then the lights should be off. Its nice to look at my eyes yes and infact deep in my eyes but not while kissing heheheeeeeeeee I fear that. Tell me, have you ever kissed someone then looking at him you find him staring? heheheeeeee!
Thanks alot for your response.

Hello, Kwenge.
I do close my eyes, except when I hear noises or something like that, then I keep on kissing and open to check them. My girlfriend has the not so good "hobby" of calling our friends with her hands (like touching them) so they turn and see us kissing and say: "Oh, no, not again". Then she stops kissing me to start arguing (not a real arguing, just in a kidding way) about what is so wrong. Well, I have to say that sometimes I wish she didn't move aswell, lol.
Respectfully,
Munhozmib.

i find it sensual when kissing while my eyes are open. if it's close, i find it boring -- too serious. hehehe.. i always, if not all, open my eyes when kissing my partner. i like it, i feel more like into it. 
i don't mind big time if my partner prefers to close his eyes or open it while we're into it. as long as we're both enjoying the moment hehehe..

I close my eyes. I don't like looking at anything that close. It hurts my eyes.

Haha, no I just try to focus on something too close to my eyes. It strains the muscles controling my eyes.

Everybody does i believe or Im wrong. I mean its not very inviting if you will be kissing someone eyes wide open. You can feel much f the sensation when you close your eyes.

Closing eyes while kissing is the ideal thing to do.
It would be funny to see your partners eyes open
wide..hehehe... Or if your partner want
to open eyes while kissing you can turn off the light.
Much better right,huh.

Maybe because we want to see the expressions on the faces of the women we are kissing. LOL. But actually, I do sometimes close my eyes too.. ^_^

my eyes are normally closed when we kiss.
but i read somewhere that opening them occasionally can be sensual especially when you look into each others eyes while making love.

I definitely keep them closed. It's freaky to leave them open. I want him to keep them closed too. I don't need him gawking at me like that while we kiss. Besides, trying to open them and look at someone from that close up makes you cross-eyed. LOL

closing our eyes are the most intimate part of kissing while we open our eyes just some glance just a glance to his face or to his facial expression is also a part of kissing. i close my eyes to feel the emotion og love.

Yes I always close my eyes. I just thought it was natural to do so lol. I wouldn't like the idea of someone watching me while we were kissing. I'd also feel self conscious and weird.
