Squint-eye

I had a temporary shift to some other building.
Well thats work, what can one do.
That one has a lot more employees than my
curent one.

Also had the pleasure of being introduced
to many new people. Now here came the
problem.

How should I talk to squint-eyed people?
I met two such people this week and
we exchanged pleasantries while passing
later on.

But I found it impossible to judge which
eye I am supposed to look into.
Maintaining eye contact is a good
practice but this completely baffled me.

I am sure it was embarrasing to the other
person also, if he has not already got used to it.
My eyes were literally moving to and fro
from his one eye to other.

Unable to decide, I grew frustated.
When you make eye contact with someone
who does not has this problem, each of your
eyes looks at the mirror opposite one.

But somehow here, I was staring at
one of the eyes only.
My other eye, meeting blank also shifted
its gaze to the one which got eye contact.

If the other person had only one eye
then I would have concentrated
on only one eye of his.
I thought of asking someone to be sure.

But even that seemed embarrasing to me.
So does my reader know how to react
in such a situation without making
a fool of myself?
