When I talk to a person I need to have an eye contact with him. But he never looks at me. He always looks away

Without question! The night I met her the amount of respect and attention she afforded me was awe inspiring. Even more so as it still rings true today!

Sometimes I do t think he does. It's like I'm talking but sometimes he won't respond or go off in another subject.

My partner and I actually trouble shoot together. We listen.

I think he listens at times but he doesn't hear me.
