If eye contact during sex has felt like a test, it is because the night was a grade. Magnetism is a climate, not an exam.

Eyes open can be intimacy or a test. Eyes closed can be sensation or a disappearance. Neither is more evolved. Magnetism is choosing, not defaulting to hide or to stare. If a step requires someone to be less free, skip it. That was never magnetism.

If you cannot ever look, you may be avoiding being seen. If you cannot ever close, you may be policing.
