Let's talk about Resting B Face (RBF). It's that unintentional expression that makes you look perpetually annoyed, even when you're perfectly content. But what *is* RBF, really? It's not about *actually* being angry, it's about the subtle combination of facial features – perhaps a slight downturn of the mouth, a furrowed brow, or a direct, unwavering gaze – that others interpret as displeasure.
The science suggests our brains are wired to quickly assess emotional cues in faces. Sometimes, those cues get misinterpreted! Factors like fatigue, concentration, or even just having strong, defined features can contribute to an RBF.
Embrace it! RBF doesn't define your personality. It's just a facial expression, and it can even be empowering! You may appear unapproachable to some, but you might also project confidence and competence. Ultimately, let your actions and true personality shine through, and don't let RBF get in the way of authentic connection.
