Struggles All People With Resting Nice Face Can Relate To

Have you ever been asked to help someone with directions multiple times a day? Has a complete stranger ever told you their life story and expected advice or feedback? Do babies, kittens, and old people naturally cling to you? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you may be struggling with the phenomenon known as "Resting Nice Face." You’re all smiles and giggles all the time and probably don’t even notice it. On the inside you’re wishing people would stop talking to you and just leave you alone, but on the outside you probably look like this.

I am sure we are all familiar with Resting Bitch Face. No matter how friendly one of our friends may be, they just cannot help but look like she wants to ax murder every person she comes into contact with. Here are seventeen times Resting Nice Face people probably wish we had Resting Bitch Face.

  1. Men always take your smile as an excuse to flirt.
  2. Salespeople on the street or at mall kiosks LOVE when you walk by. They have been ignored all day, your smiling face is such a refresher.
  3. People assume you're much younger than you actually are.
  4. On the rare occasion that you do appear upset, EVERYONE wants to know what is wrong.
  5. You have to try your very hardest to look effortlessly cool. SO difficult, especially on a campus like mine where everyone is actually cool.
  6. “Sweetie,” “baby,” “cupcake,” and basically any other pet name imaginable... you've have been called it, even by people you don’t know.
  7. “Why are you so happy?” is a common question, as if happiness is odd.
  8. People assume you are more trusting, so they share secrets and belongings with you very frequently.
  9. When you are angry, NO ONE believes you.
  10. Your cheeks hurting from smiling too much is a common ailment.
  11. If you are out eating or doing anything alone, strangers will come and sit with you, whether you want them to or not.
  12. Bus, airplane, DMV, library… no matter where you are, if someone you do not know sits next to you, it is guaranteed that they will chat with you.
  13. “Sexy” is definitely not a word that is used to describe you… usually “cute” or “awkward” do a better job.
  14. Back to unwarranted flirting, men seriously don’t know how to take the hint when you are not interested.
  15. You get mistaken for being simple or ditzy a lot of the time.
  16. No one has actually asked before they hug or touch you, it just happens.
  17. You accidentally make a friend everywhere you go.

In a way, Resting Nice Face is a blessing. People will never think you are mean since they don’t think you are capable of being mean; you can always count on people talking to you; and you most likely, always, have a funny story to tell your friends because strangers are always approaching you…and strangers are hilariously weird. On the bright side, resting nice face isn’t that bad of a thing and you probably are actually a nice person. You go, you!

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
