I was thinking of this on my way home from work, and was reminded of it due to another poster's comment.
While leaving work, I nearly ran into a man walking on the street. I made eye contact because I wanted to apologize and he told me that I should smile. Not the joking kind of comment, but more of the "hey baby, you should be smiling" type of comment. I scowled and walked away.
I was taught that making eye contact and expressing a greeting is simply being polite. I feel like I am being rude but it has gotten to the point that I no longer make eye contact or give a polite smile when I see a single middle aged man walking down the street.
I thought there was a three glance rule that indicated interest in someone.

I don't make eye contact because it usually pisses off the other person and I end up defending myself in a physical way.

Maybe instead of over analyzing this you SHOULD just smile more often
This may be indicative that you have a problem. Maybe your eye contact is of the wrong kind, or your body language is threatening, or something.
Unless maybe he lives in a foreign country? I know in some countries making eye contact can get you in trouble. Man I'm glad to live in America!
