Do you know real happy people smile about 35 – 50 times a day? While the rest smile about 20 times a day.
Though true
frequent smiles will help generate more stronger / positive emotions and that
is why we are excited around children because on the average, they smile about
400 times a day. Smiling can also boost your mood greatly.
In everyday
social relationship, we smile dozens of times per day. Our senses believe they
all mean to convey happiness or all good and positive signal. This could be
false. Smiles are pretty complex. They send varying messages depending on the conveyor.
Smile is a makeover
expression comprised by flexing the muscles of both ends of ones mouth while
showing the front teeth in most cases without vocalization. Smiles are one of
the best ways to communicate in any relationship. A true smile is welcoming, it
shows peace and love.
Understanding the
message behind any type of smile is necessary for a healthy relationship. Although
smiles are typically associated with happiness, we can use smiles in a
variety of ways.
There are different types of smiles and here are the famous ones
1. Duchene or true Smile
A French man
named Duchenne is the son of a pirate and a neurologist. He wanted to know more
about human facial expressions. This smile is often related to genuine or real happiness
and joy. This type of smile is associated with narrowed, happy eyes that leave
wrinkles.
2. Fake Smile
Unlike Duchenne smile that has eye involvement, fake smile lacks
this credibility. You can easily predict the person is faking the smile if you
notice an upturn in the lips either to the right or left. During the time of
faking this smile, the lips may remain closed or sometimes slightly opened. Fake
smile reveals unhappiness in a person or when we a not in the mood to smile but
just have to.
3. Prickly or embarrassed Smile
We feel uncomfortable
or embarrassed when people say inappropriate things or gives gestures we don’t like
they may engage in an embarrassed smile that is intended to cover up their true
feeling of embarrassment. Blushing and the eyebrow is a giveaway here. It will fold
while you smile. Sometimes head dipped down and slightly moved to the left is
another sign.
4. Sad smile
Smiles could do some magic in hiding our true emotions but
with a careful observation, we will be able to tell if it is a smile of sadness.
When we do not want others to know our true state emotionally, we consciously
or not put up this smile. There is a grave look of sadness even when such a
person smile.
5. Flirting smile
People flirt for various reasons. Everything flirting isn’t
really sexual. A flirting smile is easily noticed because it comes with other
gestures like a wink or other body language to communicate with you.
6. Seductive Smile
When people try
to be seductive, they give a slight smile that accompanies direct eye contact,
with a slow glance away, while smiling. Submissive behavior is characterized with
seductive smile.
7. Ironic Smile
The eyes are
easy giveaway here. There is a look of disparagement. It could mean displeasure
or even pleasure.
