Many have noticed that when kissing, their eyes close by themselves. Often this feature can be seen in feature films, when the faces of the actors are shown in close-ups. Why is this happening? This question has interested psychologists, as a result of which several theories have emerged to explain this phenomenon.
Instructions
Step 1
Professor from Singapore Yau Che gives several reasons why the eyelids spontaneously close during a kiss. He believes that this is a protective reaction of the body, protecting the brain from emotional shock by eliminating external stimuli.
Step 2
The second reason, according to Yau Che, is the too small distance between partners, at which the eye cannot see the three-dimensional image, and the facial features of a loved one blur. To avoid such an unsightly sight, a person instinctively closes his eyes.
Step 3
The scientist makes a third assumption: natural human modesty. Covering their eyes, both partners seem to allow each other not to control their emotions and facial expressions.
Step 4
But there is another theory as well. According to her, closing his eyes, a person enhances the feeling of pleasure that he gets from the kiss of a loved one. He subconsciously removes everything that can distract him and completely surrenders to pleasure. This is indirectly confirmed by the fact that with closed eyes, the rest of a person's feelings are instantly exacerbated. Try this experiment - blindfold your eyes with a dark bandage during the daytime. You will feel your hearing, smell and touch sharpen immediately to compensate for your lack of vision.
Step 5
Another reason, according to psychologists, is the feelings that you have for a person. If you completely trust him and your sense of self-preservation just "fell asleep" at this moment, your eyes will close when kissing.
Step 6
Statistical studies that have been carried out have revealed that only 10% of people never close their eyes while kissing. As it turned out, these are people with "hyperresponsibility." They are characterized by such character traits as reliability and authoritarianism. They have a rare ability to control the situation under any, even the most romantic, circumstances. If you do not have such qualities of a real scout, you will kiss with your eyes closed.
