I keep misreading this post because of the Canadian election

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago

Well I am now.

Look, normally eye don't object to ob-seen images, but it's damaging my vision...

[–] [email protected] 9 points 5 days ago (5 children)

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.

Blocked.

Jk

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

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.

I mean… no.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago

Just don't lick the eye ball for at least an hour after eating cake.

Couples share spit and other bodily fluids, so...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

There’s legitimate eye diseases you can spread.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

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...

You can get heart disease from this just FYI

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

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.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago

I'm into it

[–] [email protected] 11 points 5 days ago

Why can you just peg each other like a normal couple?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 days ago

An ex of mine would 'tickle me with her eyelashes'. Similar concept but no eye touching. Would've probably evolved into that had we stayed together. My other ex would look at me dramatically with one eye (as if recoiling from something shocking) then switch the eyes and moving closer too. Ended up with her deep in my face sometimes.

... 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?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 days ago

If you think butterfly kisses are weird, me and my friends actually touched eyeballs every now and then just like the image.

Being weird is fun lol

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 days ago

I am a guy and have been told my whole life that girls are sooooooo jealous of my eyelashes.

Yes, they want butterfly kisses. It's totally a thing

[–] [email protected] 9 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Butterfly kisses are a thing.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

Ok, rhat's ... good...?

I've mentioned this to other people before over the years, and ... basically 99% of other people have never heard of this concept/practice.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 5 days ago (2 children)

I've heard of butterfly kisses, done by one person to the other person's cheek or neck, it tickles. Reciprocal ones, lash to lash, is new to me.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Letting the eyeballs touch is the French kissing of butterfly kisses? If I understand the analogy correctly.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

Butterfly snogging.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 days ago (1 children)

That's so sweet, it lets your eyelash mites and your partner's visit a new face!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 days ago (1 children)

... and TIL about eyelash mites.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago (1 children)

The cure for loneliness was staring us in the eyes all along!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago

I'm... I'm sorry clay. It's not your fault.

Our mites, they just... they're not compatible.

=(

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago

I always do this to make sure there's no little people operating the other person.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 5 days ago

Corneal knowledge.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Yes.

Where's the eye bleach?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

On my eye, here I can share a little 👁️

I’d hide this post but I don’t want to be able to easily find it ever again in my hidden posts

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago

I don't get why neorotypics rave about making eye contact.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago
[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago

I guess we just don't see eye to eye.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 5 days ago (3 children)

This isn't real right? Right?!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago

It was passé when Man Ray did it.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 days ago

I had a girlfriend who did this. It feels weird

[–] [email protected] 12 points 5 days ago

This is the internet, you prolly don't really want to know.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 5 days ago

What if we kissed with our corneas? Like, if we'd both bawl generating oxytocin rich tears we could swap them and both be happy

[–] [email protected] 16 points 5 days ago

Conjunctivitis has entered the meme

[–] [email protected] 21 points 5 days ago

And here I was thinking I'd seen it all, god damnit.
