Psycho
 
Location: that place with the thing
I make eye contact with everybody who impacts my surroundings.

I think most people assume it's because, publicly, I'm very outgoing and extroverted; the reality of the situation is that I do so out of habit. I want to be a clandestine operative or a federal agent, and I think making eye contact allows one to exert some control over every situation, whether it be through intimidation/commanding presence, or merely through obtaining some measure of information about those in your vicinity.

EDIT: And I didn't really imply anything in terms of your particular situation, so I would go ahead and say it's because the guy's intimidated by you. I mean, if he's willing to hit on a girl who's attached - and I'm not saying he is, I'm merely illustrating a point - then he should have the nut to look you in the eye and flash a triumphant smile or two. Perhaps he thinks you'll thrash his ass.. Just a thought.
