Argh, I have trouble smiling!

[Vice]

I've noticed that I don't smile that often! I have trouble doing it when I look at girls, it's like we make eye contact, and then I break it because I realize that I didn't smile.

I have really white teeth (i whiten them) and every once in a while i have people comment on them, but for some reason I have trouble showing off one of my best assets

Anyone else ever experience a similar problem?

Depends on my inner game level. If I am fresh and fit and feel awesome, I usually smile a lot. But on other days, not so much.

Truth is, all people aren't social. Many won't smile back when you do. Many like being left alone.

Maybe you should try to genuinely feel happy when you see someone nice, and just convey that with your smile. You might have to force yourself before you get used to it.

There is a grocery store I go to, and the old security guard ALWAYS smiles at EVERYONE and says a BIG hello. I learned a lot from noticing that.

Pleasant to have you in particular answer this question.

I suppose you're right; if I'm feeling fresh and fit I'll probably be in a fantastic mood!

So I'm going to go exercise a bit before I go out; lift some weights, swim, run, and take a cold shower and be on my way!

And the idea of being genuinely interested and happy is great. Thank you

Dam man I've been having the same problem lately. It's kind of weird, like I can't break this serious look on my face. Things can get real awkward when talking to people. When I force out a smile it feels even more awkward. I'm have no idea why this happens to me sometimes, but it seems to last for a period of time. Eventually I just don't think about it and it goes back to normal.

I hate it, and don't know why it happens. It may have to do with lack of happiness or it may just be anxiety and being self-conscious.

Think of something that makes you smile (if you can't think of anything, just observe yourself for a few days until something comes up), and keep it in the back of your mind. Whenever you find you aren't smiling enough, just conjure that image in the back of your mind, and that will get you smiling. Also, remember to smile with your eyes and not just your mouth.

"I want to fuvk you in the ass like you owe me money"
