In reply to Abhijit Ray. Thank you Abhijit. I agree about the sensitivity of cultural differences. A lot of people come up with questions to make sure they don't hurt believes of people here. I wonder what image we have given to that German Boy for him to come up with that question.

Eye-contact is really important, It’s said that our minds speak through our eyes… :-)

Nice and informative. People abroad take cultural difference and sensitivities seriously. I was once asked by a German boy about to come to India, “will I be beaten up if I look at girls”. It sounds funny now, but he asked it in all earnestness.

I agree.
Eye-contact is important. Even in the Hindi movie Happy New Year, SRK has this dialog- Those who avoid eye-contact are thieves…

Really nice Vidyashree :) Eye contacts are really important during conversations, but then the politeness of your lady is really appreciable :)
