I have trouble maintaining direct #EyeContact, but I have no problem with photographs of people looking directly at the camera or drawings of people looking at the viewer.
Do people really have this level of problem with it? Do you?
I find pictures of faces looking into the camera very distracting. I find it really hard to focus on reading if they come up on my timeline. I wouldn’t call it disturbing but I’m always grateful for a cw on pictures like that. (moving gifs are the worst)
In real life, I’m not keen on eye contact. I’ll look at you while I listen, but I’ll look elsewhere when I speak.

If it's any comfort, I think most NTs look away when they speak. Staring at the person you're talking to would be a power move, and not a comfortable one. So I think you can be relaxed about that. 🙂
