I had a girlfriend, many years ago, whose eyes were that color. Her stares could burn holes in your soul. She married my best friend, they have six kids and now she weighs close to 300lbs.
I have green eyes. Also love emeralds. My husband says when I have red bloodshot eyes “it looks like Christmas.” Green eyes are good for a stare-down, I’ll vouch for that. Glad you dodged the 300 pounder!
