Hey, What's Wrong With My Eyes?
A coworker wanted to discuss something with me, but she kept losing her train of thought. Finally she said, "I have to look away. I can't concentrate when I look at your eyes."
She is a sweet person who would never intend to offend me, but I can't figure out what she meant. And now, I'm afraid to look at her, because I don't want to upset her.
I've asked other people about this and they just dismiss the subject with the comment that she's Philippino. But it's not like she's never seen a blue eyed person before. We have to work together and I just feel so weird. Is there something wrong with my eyes?

Maybe she's gay. :)
(Not that there's anything wrong with that. ;)
Lol! That never occurred to me. :)
LOL@Dave!
No idea what she meant. I do know that Japanese tend to not look you in the eyes. They don't do it to offend, they do it because it's part of they're culture. Form of polite shyness.
Not that I can tell. Look like eyes to me. But maybe they transmit some hypnotic ray in person that the camera stops.
Michelle, she has no problem looking anybody else in the eyes, just me.
Running2ks, you may have hit the nail on the head. :)
Lisa, I don't want to risk embarassing her. She really is such a sweet person, I'm sure that she meant no offense. She has since given me a necklace, so perhaps that was her way of making amends.
Nice save dk. But my money is on Running2ks theory. There aren't a lot of gay phillipino nurses out there. I know a few but most of the ladies I know are too religious. Melissa would absolutely be their dream girl though, there don't seem to be a lot of tall blonde blue eyed phillipinas.
Does religion stop a person from being attracted to a person of the same sex?
