It's a difficult thing to get used to, but if done correctly, you can start to tell how the other person is reacting to what you're saying. You don't have to feel like you have to stare them, just try to relax and it will eventually come to you more natural. I have a hard time with eye contact sometimes, too, but I'm working on fixing that. It seems more polite if you can seem interested in what the other person is saying, even if you aren't interested.
