I'm too much of an anxious mess for something like that. Trying avoiding looking at people in general, and seeing others looking or smiling at me almost gives me a heart attack every time

I'm too ugly

Ugly or not doesn't matter. I've found it can make some others happy. Sometimes you get a nice conversation.

I wish I could be that kind of person who brings joy by smiling at people but I don't think I am. Most people won't smile back and a few even shudder away.
Maybe I will try again? In my doctors notes it even says that my smile reaches my eyes and is a genuine smile. So even if I'm depressed I can still smile for real.

I smile at people just to be polite, usually if I get too close to the other person or I'm trying to pass by, I just smile and politely apologize lolol I don't think people say much but "it's okay" or "no problem" and keep it trucking. I think I smile the best when I'm depressed since I have work harder to seem happier or maybe at work since I have to lie and pretend I don't hate my job lololol

I do sometimes, if someone does something I like.

I do that to annoy them. Works all the time.

I smile when I'm happy, sometimes a stranger happens to stand at the direction of my smile

Can't. If i smile at people, they get the idea that i'm interested in them and it'll tolerate their catcalling (´-﹏-`;)

>>701275 Those aren't people g/u/rl. They're called incels.

>>701326 we have.. we have a lot of incels then.

>>701328 Well, they could be chads as well. Both incels and chads lack the social awareness to understand that someone smiling does not equal them wanting to fuck.

It's pretty difficult for me to just suddenly smile, both physically and psychologically. I really want to learn how to do it, though. But the few times I've tried, I've failed so miserably, I don't think I'll be trying any time soon.

>>701340 The fact that you're overthinking it and "trying" is the problem. It has to happen naturally.

>>701362 Well, it doesn't just happen on its own. So I have to do something.

Not only do I smile, sometimes I'll talk with them.
On rare occasion they don't react or say. nothing.

I remember a year ago I smiled at a random pretty girl in the street for the sake of it and I actually got a smile back. It brightens your day a bit for sure, it's a nice feeling.

>>702289 Yeah! Smiles are super nice! I'm the OP of the "might make a friend" thread, and it makes me feel a lot better every time she smiles at me. It's just wholesome!
