I wish I had a 'merry' face

I’m the same. I don’t have a smiley face. People think I’m upset/pissed off for no reason.

I've got a "MARY!!!" face.

I had a frau co-worker complain to HR that I was giving her unpleasant looks. I explained to them the concept of resting bitch face.

.....

Smile? Sorry, I don't do tricks on command.

It’s especially bad when you’re not American born but live in America where half the population walk around grinning like Cheshire cats. Fake smiles all around AND I’M THE BITCH? Lol

Same here, even when I’m just relaxing I look angry.

I'm afraid I, too, suffer from RBF.

When people walk up to you and say "Smile! It's not that bad!" tell them you have terminal cancer.

R6 it might be other parts of your personality they are referring to

Evidently.

I've had that happen before too, but the woman ended up just being a homophobe.

Is OP's photo of Kevin O'Conner from "This Old House"? He's hot.

Here's a good example - merry face: Queen Latifah. Angry face: Michelle Obama. Neither is necessarily merry or angry, but their facial features suggest a disposition.

I don't have either, I guess.

Lol ^

Mrs. Gingrich looks like an Angry Bird.

The slightest tension in certain muscles around my eyes and I suddenly look like my beloved dog just died, no matter my actual mood, which is usually pretty good, except when strangers go, "Awwww cheer up! Smile! It's not so bad!"

I get “Are you ill?”

You could get surgery to have the tips of your lips upturn.

I don't understand, I think you look fine. Are you smiling?

Fall into a big vat of acid.

OP, always remember to put on your "yes" face whenever you go out in public.

When I'm answering the door or meeting someone I have to remember to smile so they don't think I hate meeting them.

I do hate meeting them. I guess I'm good as I am then.

I did it before The Joker

I admire your tireless work for the United Face Bank, r23!

Don’t mean mug me!

What's wrong??!! SMILE!!

^^ And by the way, compared to me, you have the joviality of Santa Claus in that OP. Nowadays when people suggest that I "Smile!", I just reply, "Mind your own damn business." It works, they do.

OP, wait 'til I sit on that guy's face.

Kevin O'Connor looks like a Golden Retriever. Happy dog face.

Merry Madame X!
