Whenever I talked to him he never looked at my face, always somewhere else. My friend said that he was looking at my feet but I (not to sound pervy or anything) always thought he was looking at my chest, which kind of sickened me. But he’s not that kind of guy, and that’s what confused me. So I got to thinking about it and this is what I got to thinking…


What if he’s not looking at my chest, or my feet even, for that reason? What if there’s a whole other reason? What if he’s afraid of looking people in the eye because he’s lying to them? He could be lying about anything. He could be lying about being your friend, or liking this school, or even wanting to be talking to you. Maybe he doesn’t want to look you in the eye because he’s afraid that you’ll see. He’s afraid you’ll find what he’s hiding. He doesn’t want you to see his secrets or what he really wants. He wants to be like a diary, locked to everyone but the special person with the key. Who knows who that person with the key even is? I mean, how will they ever know if he won’t even look them in the eye.

But who knows, maybe when he meets that person he will look her in the eye and she’ll see it all. He’ll be transparent to her and she’ll be the same to him. He’ll never put his head down again and everyone will always be able to tell everything about him. I mean, its always a possibility. It could be anything really. He could just really not want to look people in the eye because he doesn’t like any of us, he’s just biding his time until he can escape and run. Maybe he’s not looking at us because it hurts him to see who he’s lied to. And maybe he really just doesn’t want us to see him.

But then again… Maybe he is just looking at my chest.
