I'm autistic. Yes I hate looking at faces.

Have you been screened for autism because that's a classic sign.

I hate looking at faces. I have autism if that has anything to do with it

I hate looking at faces. For me it is because we do not look the way i think we should. We look wrong.

I dont unless I was talking to them. most people dont

It has to be a conscience effort for me, then I have to not continue to stare at their face in order to not be seen as creepy. It's a constant balancing.

Given where you're posting, the sign that someone is an extrovert is that they look at the other person's shoes instead of their own. /j

I have a tendency to avoid looking at people I think and suspect the habit partly came from the same place as not wanting to see myself.

Yeah usually especially if I'm telling a sad story. I don't like others feeling for me.

Yeah I don't like how strangers want to hold my gaze. Or the things that they think they can read from me by looking at my face. The advent of getting to wear masks in public has been great for me
