recently, i had a teacher tell me, "i like that you smile all the time. It makes you look like you know something we don't know," and then he jokingly continued, "it's kinda starting to scare me." i was kinda surprised at this comment. i've had people say things about my facial expressions before, but nothing like this. alot of times, i make facial expressions without knowing and other people notice that and ask me what's wrong or something like that.
i never paid much attention to my smile. most of the time, i don't. people have told me i seem to have a distant facial expression(it makes me look like i'm daydreaming in another world or tuning out all the sounds around me). i tend to do that alot(not intentionally. it just happens). but anyway, if i ever smile, it's usually a closed smile.
alot of people think i'm shy and i guess i could agree with that. i have a few friends, not alot and most of the time, i'm content with being by myself(i was made fun of alot as a kid so i'm used to being alone alot, but i'm 15 years old now). usually people avoid me and i feel like i don't know how to interact with people cuz i don't do it much. i'm not much of a talker. i'd rather listen to people and comment rather than start a conversation.
i've had a few people say i'm mysterious or that i look stuck up, but once they know me, then they say i'm really sweet and generous
but anyway, what kind of facial expression makes a person look mysterious, shy or even unapproachable?
i usually wear dark makeup(dark blues, grays, purples, black eyeshadows) my eyes look like cateyes(or so i've heard) and my hair is medium length with REALLY sharp layers(the edges of my hair are very pointy). my hair is black, eyes are green, my skin is a beige/orangish color and i have bangs that are very pointy at the edges and cover a bit of my eyes.
do i need to change my appearance to look friendlier or do i just need to work more on my social skills? deep down, i really am a nice person
