to look with pleasure


Explanation:
Sevgi ve askin soz konusu oldugu durumlarda muhabbetle bakmanin kullanildigini zannetmiyorum. Ancak bazi durumlarda politik davranip, memnuniyetsizliginizi maskelemek veya ekstra sempati toplamak icin basvurulan (veya zorunda birakilan) bir davranis bence. Bir arkadasim "bir devlet dairesine gittiginde muhabbetle bakmazsan, isin %50 olmaz" deyip duruyordu. Bence en guzel ornek :))
