Since contributing to this thread, I have been, to a certain extent, monitoring myself and I have been surprised just how much I do close my eyes when concentrating on anything that does not actively require me to use the sense of sight.
Like marionk I realised I closed my eyes during my pilates class, once I had checked by looking at the instructor or other class members that I was doing each exercise correctly.
However I do not do it when with other people, in the way Saak and Caroline have described.
What made you fall in love with your OH?
