Look at Me When You Talk

There’s something she can’t stand and that is a man who wants her attention but can’t hold her gaze.
Not because he’s shy.
Not because he’s nervous.
Not because he’s soft.

No because lets be honest, she sees right through that.
The real issue is that he wants her energy without offering his presence.

And Soft Dom Tess?
She isn’t interested in half-engaged men who mumble their thoughts while looking at the floor, their phone, or the wall behind her. If he can’t meet her eyes, he’s not ready for the version of connection she brings.

So she says it,  low, steady, and sharp enough to freeze him in place:

“Look at me when you talk.”

Not loud.
Not aggressive.
Controlled, intentional, dominant in that quiet, devastating way she carries herself.

Because meeting her gaze isn’t just about eye contact babe it’s about accountability.
Presence.
Focus.
Respect.

If he can’t look her in the eyes, he can’t understand her.
If he can’t hold her gaze, he can’t handle her intensity.
If he can’t stay steady under that softness-laced-with-authority, he’s not ready for anything deeper.

She wants a man who doesn’t hide in conversation.
A man who doesn’t deflect with sarcasm or look everywhere but at her.
A man who understands that her gaze is an invitation , and one that requires courage, not excuses.

When she says “Look at me,” she’s telling him:

Be present.
Be honest.
Be grounded.
Be here,  fully here.

She’s not interested in conversations where he’s half-distracted and half-committed.
She’s not dealing with men who only listen when it’s convenient.
She’s not entertaining emotional drive-by energy.

Look at her when you talk
because she’s giving you her attention,
her presence,
her softness,
her authority.

And a woman like her doesn’t offer those lightly.

If you want her, you better show up like you mean it.
Meet her eyes.
Match her energy.
Hold her attention the way she naturally holds a room.

Because when she asks for eye contact, she’s asking for connection.
When she asks you to focus, she’s asking for depth.
When she commands your gaze, she’s testing your ability to stay grounded under pressure.

And here’s the thing:

A man who can look her in the eyes when her tone shifts?
When she leans closer?
When she gives that quiet, dominant instruction?

He’s a man who can handle her.
Not just the soft parts but the intensity, the depth, the emotional gravity that comes with her.

Eye contact is the first step.
Presence is the real requirement.
And if he can’t hold her gaze, he’s not ready to hold anything else.

Final Thought: Parting Command

If you want her attention, offer your presence. Meet her eyes, match her energy, and speak with intention. Look at her when you talk or she’ll find someone who can.
