One of the reasons it is difficult to maintain eye contact when talking is that your eyes are looking to the part of your brain where facts, feelings or memories are stored. Which is sometimes when I am trying to think of a word on the tip of my tongue I start looking down and left.
Apparently when we visualise we tend to look up. When we are thinking about sounds, our eyes slide towards our ears. When we are thinking about our feelings our eyes tend to look towards the hand we write with and when we talk to ourselves or hear inner voices (not the mad kind), our eyes move down towards our other hand.
So there is the scientific reason behind it. If you find your eyes sliding off it means you are actually thinking before speaking, which is always a good idea.
