Not reacting to a manipulator’s intense, darting, or “locked-in” gaze requires emotional detachment and specific, non-defensive behaviors. A manipulator uses this tactic to provoke anxiety, fear, or submission, aiming to make you doubt your reality or feel pressured.

• Neutral Face: Keep your expression entirely neutral—no raised eyebrows, no slight smile, no furrowed brow.
• Avoid Emotional Reactions: If they are trying to provoke anger, fear, or sympathy, intentionally withhold that reaction.
• Brief, Vague Responses: Use one-word answers like “Noted,” “Okay,” or “I see,” keeping your tone flat and unimpressed. 

• Soften Your Gaze: Instead of playing a staring contest, soften your gaze by looking slightly past them or unfocusing your eyes, which signals to your own brain to stay calm.
• Look at the “Triangle”: If you must maintain eye contact, shift your focus between their eyes and mouth (the “triangle technique”) every 5–10 seconds to avoid looking intimidated.
• The “Dead-Eyed” Stare: If they are trying to stare you down, look back with a neutral, expressionless face and let them break contact first.

• Detach Physically: If possible, take a step back or change your positioning to put distance between you.
• Engage in Another Action: If they are staring, calmly look at your phone, a notebook, or a clock to signal that their behavior is not capturing your attention.
• Check Your Posture: Keep your shoulders back and maintain an open but firm posture to convey that you are not intimidated, rather than slouching or appearing shy. 

• Mirroring/Silence: Use silence to make them uncomfortable. Let them sit in their own energy without you filling the void.
• Ask “What do you mean by that?”: If they are staring during a conversation, ask this question calmly to put the focus back on their intent rather than your reaction.
• Set Boundaries: Clearly state boundaries, such as “I cannot continue this conversation if I feel pressured,” and then follow through by walking away.

• Do not look away quickly: This can signal fear or submission.
• Do not get defensive: Arguing validates their tactics.
• Do not show emotion: Anger or fear is the “fuel” they are trying to get.
