After looking back over the last few years (I'm 24) and trying to figure out why my relationships with men fail so quickly, I've come to realize that the main reason that they give seems to ALWAYS be lack of connetion to me/no chemistry. If it was just a couple guys that I heard that from, then I'd think I just simply don't match with those guys. But hearing it over and over makes me think I must have issues connecting emotionally with people. I do tend to be quite shy with guys that I like. But the last one, I wasn't shy with him, we always had good laughs. Our first date we went to the drive in, 2 movies were playing and we didn't even watch the movies because we were too busy talking, laughing and joking around. Yet after a bit he ended it giving me the very familiar reason that "I came to realize that there wasn't a connection"

So, obviously, it's me. Not them. I do know I have issues with making eye contact with people. That's one thing I'll have to try to work on. But does anyone have other tips for connecting with men emotionally? I seem to do well when talking to them over to internet/text but it's the in-person connection I need help with.
