99% of times as to why people don't approach me/find me intimidating is due to my resting bitch face. What do?I see some girls glazing me sometimes, I am physically fit, not tall but handsome. Ex's and female friends would compliment me on my appearance and I'm not a sperg to talk to as I actually listen and don't hold an awkward silence during a convo.RBF is just very natural to me and I find it exhausting to hold a smile non-stop.I'm just very tired of being alone most of my time, one of the best things that have ever happened to me was coming to uni and meeting people that are complete opposites of me. I have the strongest friendships when it's someone else that approaches me and we become friends like that.While I can meet up with people I already know, I'd like to just meet more.oh also kids are scared of me lmao
When you see people looking at you, like girls, just make a goofy face like a chungus and try to be funny. Funny and goofy means you are approachable. You'll have to practice in the mirror or find some TV/Movie chungus to copy. Make sure you don't come off as a face chopper but they probably think that anyways, couldn't be any worse. >Oh wow anon, I was looking at you from across the quad and then you made that goofy chungus face at me, and I laughed so hard I peed a bit. Then I knew I had to come say hi. Tell me a joke anon while I blow you here in public for everyone to see.
>>34639348that actually worked or are you trying to sabo me
>>34639263Don't give up the resting bitch face. The only people I could ever trust in this life were people who had resting bitch face. Because it turned out people who wear performative forced smiles on their face were unsurprisingly two-faced neurotic psychos.Think about it. What kind of person goes out of their way to fake emotions they don't actually feel in that moment? A fucking snake is what. At least resting bitch face is honest and actually realistic. Smiling requires using face muscles to lift the corners of your mouth and your cheeks and often the corners or lids of your eyes. Real smiles are involuntary, and happen as an unconscious reaction to something that floods the person with a genuine emotion. People who force that shit are voluntarily doing that. And they do it out of complete vanity, for optics, to make people think a certain way about them for some social gain. Total fake shit. When the face is at rest none of those muscles are being used, it's a flat expression often seen as "bitch face". And they call it bitch face because these neurotic weirdos think that anyone who doesn't smile at them must be a bad person. That's how entitled these retards are they expect you to smile at them like they are the main character of life. Fuck em bro.
>>34639263how many of the threads will you make before you start wearing sunglasses?
>>34639263If you meditate, you'll eventually have a permanent semi-smile, but im assuming you're not willing to go that far. Simply look in the mirror & try & find an expression that is tolerable & nonthreatening. Your eyebrow & mouth posture will be doing most of the work here, so focus on those. My eyebrows naturally droop & don't "tense" so it gives off a dead-eyed expression in my case, so I have to actively make sure they aren't doing that, but you get used to it & it becomes an unconscious process.>>34639354It works, it basically indicates you're not an insane person, which is the vibe you're giving off currently. It won't work on 100% of people but if they're receptive it's pretty great as it lets you know right away if they're conceited or in a bad mood etc
>>34639439okay, how did you meet them and who initiated the talk first?
>>34639263Silently hum some tune to yourself when joining a group or entering a room. It will relax your face.
>>34639263You dont have to smile, just make the corners of your mouth point up very slightly, thats all you need to give someone the impression that you are not having a rbf.
>>34639439Rbf isn't a bad thing at all. All you gotta do is if you make eye contact with someone, just give a small smile and do the casual hand raise greeting. I got a bit of a rbf and I do this often when I'm too focused or lost in thought.
>>34639263no one will respond to this because it sounds retarded but im at least 80% sure rbf is an actual adaptation not a symptom. everyone knows your facial expressions engrave into your face overtime and show up as wrinkles, the resting face is simply the face which invites the least aggression (hence the name, resting). if you grew up in a shithole or as a good bullying target then that is that and rbf is a low effort defense.
>>34642303no I am not holding up a facade non stop>>34643898probably the best thing I could do>>34643997>if you grew up in a shithole or as a good bullying target then that is that and rbf is a low effort defense.That's... actually correct. Think I could have a greater chance of approaching RBF people and having a successful friendship out of it implying they've been through the same?Personally I would just fucking love for someone to approach me and strike up a conversation, could even smile without controlling it.
