It depends on the moment.
Generally, definitely eye contact.
During certain roleplay, then not.
Like our first threesome, and been repeated, Mrs A was blindfold and it really added to the excitement. |

I am autistic and struggle with eye contact in general. During sex, it is way too intense and makes me panic. |

Eye contact is essential as it always ramps up the intensity...especially when you are seeing the intensity in their eyes.
Although if C’s blindfolded then the intensity gets created through her other senses

Depends who I'm with. I need to be really comfortable and confident with someone for eye contact during sex.
With my fwb I love it. He looks me in the eyes then I see that smile that tells me he knows exactly what he's doing to me and how he's making me feel. |

Depends on the person your withs preference I think - you quickly pick up if it’s something they are looking for or something that they feel uncomfortable with. Some couples want the eye contact between them while playing - so I guess it depends on the situation - but I like it / it intensifies the connection for me. |

Without eye contact sex will be incomplete, he/she might have cum but fun and orgasm will be missing.
I prefer while oral, foreplay and chit chat while you are fucking, make intense move while you are inside and ask her how was the move |

"Went with a couple once and he spent the whole time shagging me but looking at his girl ... it was hard work especially when he’s on top of you ... I need eye contact ... not even eye contact... I guess just not the idea of just being used as a hole to fuck so it feels a bit more enjoyable
Not a nice experience! "
It was afterwards that they said they’d agreed to do that between them.... aye but how does that make the other people feel... that you don’t like them and just doing it for the sake of it ... Nevermind you live and learn lol |
