👁 When You Can’t Hide It, Your Eyes Speak Loudest
They say the eyes are the window to the soul. Mine? They’re more like high-definition emotional billboards. If I’m overwhelmed, exhausted, delighted, plotting revenge—or fresh off an ugly cry—my eyes are the first to tell the truth.
And I’ve learned, over time, that sometimes you don’t need to say a thing. The look you give, or can’t quite hide, says it all. Especially when you’re trying to hold it together at a pageant after crying backstage because your baby finally got crowned… and you’ve been running on three hours of sleep and one too many hairspray fumes.
💬 What Are Your Eyes Saying?
Here’s what people often pick up from your eyes (even if they don’t know they’re picking it up):
- Fatigue: Puffiness, dark circles, that “why did I agree to this” stare
- Stress: Tension around the brows, dryness, inflammation
- Love or attraction: Softness, dilated pupils, sparkle (yes, that’s real)
- Fear or anxiety: Darting glances, wide eyes, lack of eye contact
- Confidence: Direct gaze, lifted lids, zero flinch
Your eyes tell on you. Every time.
😏 Eyes Wide Shut: The Moments I Pretended Not to See It
You know what I’m talking about. That subtle head tilt. The long blink of denial. The telepathic scream through your retinas that says, “Oh no they didn’t.”
Here are a few of my personal greatest hits:
💬 The moment I saw someone texting mid-convo…
While nodding like they were fully listening. You weren’t slick, Brenda.
💬 That time I caught someone checking me out at the gas pump…
And they did the “look away, then back again” move like this was a rom-com. Spoiler: It was 92 degrees and I was sweating through my eyeliner.
💬 Looking into my own reflection and realizing…
That wasn’t mascara. That was a full shadow of exhaustion under my eyes. I fixed it with concealer and delusion, obviously.
