When the old couple started to smile at one another, it was the cutest thing ever

[GreenUptowner]

"I do look at your eye sometimes 'cause I am checking your blood sugar." Too cute!

[Veralusia]

I loved the couple with the guy who said he loved looking at his wife without having to talk about work or anything else. That made me cry. You can tell how much he loves her. So powerful!

[Richard__Cranium]

So all I have to do is awkwardly stare at someone for 4 minutes and we'll fall in love? Dope.

"Should've peed first." Quote of my life :')

[ndnUnplanned]

There was so much love in the black guy's eyes :') they were so cute

[WoahhTeamJacob]

The old couple literally almost made me bawl my eyes out. Sometimes I feel like marriage isn't real. I have lived my life around broken marriages & relationships so I forget that it is possible to find someone who is truly meant for you & to stay with them till death.

Omg i know its awkward but i felt so calm when the couples start to look into each other eyes this feeling is so relaxing and it doesn't have anything to do with me but feels good 💗

this black man made me smile every time i saw his face :D

[BreetiveBEing]

This small video just grew my heart 3 sizes bigger! Eye contact is a huge thing for me. I have an eye turn (or lazy eye), and I used to get teased about it a lot. As a result, I conditioned myself not to look directly into anyone's eyes. Slowly I am growing out of that instinct, but after seeing this video I will be more intentional with my eye contact.

It was truly beautiful to witness the couples truly SEE each other. It's pretty cliche, but I guess the eyes really are the window to the soul. And mine were pretty watery after watching this. Thanks a lot Soul Pancake. No really, thanks a lot! You guys add so much value to my life!

i keep replaying the scene at 1:56 ... i loved the way the husband looked at his wife... my heart melted <33

[EazyDuz]

did this with a dog and it got angry and attacked me

[ma-ddge]

Didn't work. She called the police.

[Snomo]

Honestly the best part about this for me is how you can see the different stages of intimacy happening as time goes on.
When they start, they find it uncomfortable, strange, and even try not to laugh. But by the time they reached the end they look completely entranced in the other person. They're able to keep a straight face and stay quiet, without breaking the eye contact. It's incredible to me, and I hope one day I can experience a moment of connection like this and FEEL it. 💙

[MinecraftCutiepie]

With my social anxiety I would be TERRIFIED

[AdrianneCurry-Rhode]

the connection between the two ladies and the older couple was stunning

[rgonzales]

A performance artist named Marina Abramovich did this. People lined up to look her in the eyes for as long as they can and it had the same effect. People started crying. Perhaps the eyes are truly the windows to the soul. :')

[NareHovakimyan]

SoulPancake, you've outdone yourself. There was so much emotion in this that I found myself crying from happiness just by watching the silent love between these beautiful souls. Thank you!

[Abby]

I'd love to do this with somebody some day

[gapkurlsbeauty]

"Looking at at you, I realize how much I need you." That made me cry because i'm a women with a lot of feelings lol and also, because I feel that way about my boyfriend and my friends and my family. People need other people, whether you're driving each other crazy and making each other inconceivably happy. You need them. All you need is love.
