I was listening to this song when it hit me that regardless of attraction and infatuation the only people whose eyes I've zomg hypnotised drowned in were Si-ESTj. Never happened with any other exes or crushes however mutual. And yes, the duals were typed unrelated to this. But is it a coincidence?
Yes, seriously.

To be clear, are you asking if "drowning" in someone else's eyes indicates that they could be a dual partner?
If so, perhaps in some cases. Personally, I don't really care/think much about eyes. When speaking to someone else, I maintain eye contact because it is expected social courtesy and ppl seem to appreciate it, but my natural inclination has always been to observe someone's mouth when they are speaking in conversation.
There is only one person whose eyes I've "drowned in," in the sense that thoughts and feelings could be expressed non-verbally, with eye contact alone, and the experience always felt mutual. She was Fi-INFj.
Too bad I'm not Te-LSE.

I prefer the Si-ISTps too, they generally strike me as nice and genuine people. Te-ISTps are dicks.

Yup, that's what I'm asking.
What I'm thinking of is when your eyes are drawn to the other's and you can't look away and get the energy kick of your life. Gulp.
There is communication with your eyes only, but that's not sufficient to constitute drowning to me, because my eyes are annoyingly revealing. (I tear up for nothing eg.) The unspoken communication is "louder" than in other cases though, so maybe we're talking about the same thing, if you're not an eye-looker.
Hmm, at least your activity partner has the same most prominent functions as your dual, so there could be something to it. They're the easiest to read. When I meet the eyes of someone else I have an interest in, it's mainly been
egos, it's like I'm looking for that sharpness and focus of my dual's gaze. Since it's not there, I'll keep looking without getting the same relaxation. When looking into the eyes of a dual I'm not interested in, it's still relaxing and if we're talking or I have some other reason to keep looking I'll sort of see, eh, the state of our relationship. Wow, that's wacky.

Yeah, I know that sensation as well. It seems entirely autonomic to me when it happens; I can't inhibit the reactions I'm having nor anticipate them. They occur spontaneously in response to that person with or without my consent.

By day the hot sun fermented us; and we were dizzied by the beating wind. At night we were stained by dew, and shamed into pettiness by the innumerable silences of stars. We were a self-centered army without parade or gesture, devoted to freedom, the second of man's creeds, a purpose so ravenous that it devoured all our strength, a hope so transcendent that our earlier ambitions faded in its glare.” —T.E.

Only seems to happen w/ my duals so far.

this has only happened to me once, when i met my boyfriend (after a long period of time, we knew each other as kids). along with it came this premonition that we would end up together, which i blew off as silly immediately after the eye contact broke...but about a year or so later we ended up running into each other again.
he's my activity partner. Si-SLI.

I thought this would be a thread by tcaud talking about how he could diagnose a person's dual type by the look in their eyes as he held their head underwater.
But, for a certainty, back then,
We loved so many, yet hated so much,
We hurt others and were hurt ourselves...
Yet even then, we ran like the wind,
Whilst our laughter echoed,
Under cerulean skies...

The more times you interpret angst as anger, the more times I think u has emotional iq of 12.

Yes I'm aware im posting to a thread thats like over a year old but nobody else is saying anything interesting. =p
anyways, uh, that song has too much of a sad undercurrent to me to think its love.
Yeah love is subjective blah blah blah and I don't want to post that fefe dobson song again for the billionth time but nothing ever relates to the feeling of love to me more than that song, at least for me. Love to me doesn't feel like drowning its the opposite in fact. I finally feel like I'm coming up for air after being in prison for so long. Or like that pure shores song goes 'im coming not drowning swimming closer to you' for once in my life I have this clear concrete plan and like all these good Se ish things I can hold on to.
I hate being in that misty watery mess.

So did I..just in a 'seriously, it's so diff to find duals, that the only way is reminiscent of the Salem Witch Trial thing, which means you lose your dual once you prove their personality by trial,' but I'm ILI and warped by my own ideas too much to be in touch with the more normal take on this.
