Can't smile if we make eye contact

[DamHE]

Hi,

I have trouble smiling once I make eye contact with a girl because she usually looks away pretty quickly or I am just too nervous. I've been trying to smile at them if they keep looking but I always overthink it, like "if I smile too big it's weird but if I don't smile at all it's still weird". So I was thinking, what if you were smiling as you set your eyes on hers? Would this still be effective or do I need to force myself to not be nervous when making eye contact?

If you have no idea what I'm talking about but have any tips that is fine too.

Thanks.

well.. I fu*cking suck at eye contact AND smiling, but...
smile before you look at them. like when they notice you, you're already smiling.

this probably will work every time if you don't have a creepy smile!

I disagree with the above user actually. Smiling before her looking at you would mean that your smile is not directed at her. You should mantain eye contact for maybe 1-2 seconds, then give a warm genuine smile. And after that dont stop there. Open her if she smiles back. If she turns away, make fun about it. So far i've never experience a girl turning away when i smile at her genuinely.

You know smile isn't the only option you can look at her with suprise look, show her your tongue, blink one eye, etc
