Do you have an expressive face?

Post Reply New Topic

I can make a lot of weird and silly faces, i have a lot of expressions even to the point that its super easy to read my mood by just looking at my face, so i don't think you're unusual, i mean every person is different right :D?

Well have a nice day :o

I often think that I'm giving people a big smile but then they say "SMILE!" and I wonder what's going wrong

I have this!

Hahahaha! I know, right? School pictures were a pain. I ALWAYS had retakes.

Yes, but the expressions on my face have nothing to do with what I am feeling inside. But most of the time my face is impassive with a bored and lost look.

yes but allegedly or apparently they are the wrong expressions. oh well.

I'm usually pretty readable, but I have the same facial expression when I'm tired and sad. Sometimes I mimic people's expressions without realizing it when I'm very tired

Wow, I'm surprised by the poll results. I put sometimes because it's only when I drop my defences around people I know well that I find myself smiling or frowning or generally reacting in an "organic" way, if that makes sense. The rest of the time I feel like I'm forcing fake expressions.

I thought my facial expressions were normal until a girl I worked with said "I could watch you talking all day, all the weird faces you make! " Now I'm quite self conscious about it and try and be aware of it!

I am typically stone faced expressionless, and I am occasionally told to smile even though I'm happy on the inside. I could absolutely detest the presence of a person and they would never know it because I'm not really sure how to show it.

I have learned to emulate others and over exaggerate many of my facial expressions because it helps other people understand me better. Anybody else develop any coping skills like this?

Someone once told me that my smile looked creepy, since then i never smile. Usually i just look Enraged or stoney faced.

Much of the time I have a facial expression quite similar to my avatar. I have been told by one person that I have "a Hannibal Lecter stare" (an impudent assertion!), but never having watched that movie, I don't know.

I wish more people knew about this and understood it. I remember my year 10 year advisor Mr Reid would walk past me and say something as he passed me like "Cheer up Daniel, the world's not coming to an end" and I'd be left standing there like



Here's one place we differ ray. People I don't like get the hint because for some reason I just can't talk to them. It might seem mean and some outsiders might think I'm being the nasty one but I literally can't help it! I can be talking with people I like then when someone who insults me or makes me feel bad or has done something to me walks into the room I just shut down and can't speak. Unfortunately I'm pretty shy generally speaking anyway so I'm constantly worried that the people I do like think I don't like them because I'm quiet.

I had a prostitute tell me to "smile more" when I was walking down the street once. Wtf.

I've been told that I am very expressive and have a very emotional face, but I still have a blank face quite often when I'm not interacting. A lot of the time, though, I use the wrong facial expressions. People misread me, apparently.
