A real smile is in the eyes.

I’m a pretty happy person overall. Rarely smile if I’m not happy. My face is SUPER easy to read

I have no control over my smile. I break into a smile at any happy thought, whether I'm alone or with people. Lucky for me, I'm usually happy. But when something is angering me, I simply can not fake a smile. My smile muscles simply won't work when I'm angry. My facial expressions are always a dead giveaway to my emotions at the time.

I read or heard a long time ago that a naturally occurring smile will always produce nose crinkles. And, in my worldly (ha!) travels, I've found that to be true -- especially in photos.

One of my pet peeves is people who have their picture taken and their mouth is "smiling," but their eyes and nose are not.

I am guessing that some people (usually women) think that their more natural smiles show more wrinkles. They DO. And, it is so much more attractive anyway. That's why I prefer candid shots of people. Or catching people while they are cracking up, even when posed.

One of the things that I've been working on in my therapy (I have schizo-affective disorder) I am most of the time freaked out be being around a few people at once. So one of the things I've been doing in baby steps is when I take my long walks to the corner store I'll wave, and smile and say 'Hi" to people coming the other way. It used to be real hard to do that and I found myself having to talk myself into it from pretty far away.
But after some time I've go to be a lot better, and the smile is much easier to give, which not only makes me feel a little better, but it also gives me a sense of progress.

One can smile with ones face at any time or situation but the eyes will betray you.

I smile all the time. When i look up at the sky i smile. When i look at nature i smile. Whenever I see beauty I smile. I even caught myself smiling at the gym today when i was watching the news about protests in England. My profile name says it all.

Look at my profile. I ask you, is that not a genuine smile?

Is the only one I ever had.... 64 years and counting.... unique and genuine to me.

Yes but only because I intend it to look sinister or snarky at least. I have a perpetual smile that rarely gets derailed but when it does my smile definitely bares witness to my dark side.

I am a smiler. I smile a lot. It's genuine. But then sometimes, I just snap.

I got lucky. People think I am angry even when I am smiling. They say my face doesn't change. They fail to look into the eyes to see the difference.

I smile when I’m happy? Apparently I have a resting hate face, but people have complimented my smile.

Try it! You'll like it.

no

No I don't. I think there was a substantial improvement in my smile after I got all my implants in. ?

No

Angry smile, Seen it.

I am occasionally guilty of a sinister smile when theists proudly asserts a profoundly obtuse assertion before I engage in debunking their assertion. - - although, I have learned to try to refrain from that expression because it generally makes the theists run away before I can fully decimate their assertion. - - literally I have had some run away. Occasionally before I can even start debating but usually after they begin to see their argument take on water.

Smile when I don't feel like smiling? Not often, such a smile is it is by definition artificial.

For me smiling is generally an automatic response to positive encounters with good people. . . . Or really good news.

No.

Like some others here, I wear my heart on my sleeve. So when I smile, I TRULY smile. My eyes light up, the whole thing. It's normally when I see a friend, or get a picture I've been trying to get (that normally involves animals and/or Nature).
My only exception to this is when I'm working at the movie theater. It's standard protocol to smile and say "Thank You". My co-workers always crack up 'cause as soon as the customer looks away my "smile" is gone. Those that know me can tell when I'm faking it.

At work, or when I don’t want drama. But I tend to get quiet more than anything.

Occasionally for social purposes. But not very often, I tend to wear my emotions on my sleeve so to speak

i smile when im happy

I smile when I'm pleased etc.My friends can tell my mood by looking at my eyes.

Now that I think about it, I’m not a really smiley person. I laugh a lot more often than I smile.
