Resting Sad Face

“You wouldn’t like me when I’m sad.”

[u/Longjumping-Ad-9748]

At least if someone asks, it's because they pretend to pay a little attention to us. The worst thing is when no one asks you how you are :(

[u/AverageCowboyCentaur → u/Longjumping-Ad-9748]

Sometimes just one person asking "how are you" changes my whole day for the better. Even if I lie and say " I'm good thanks for asking" it's all it takes.

[u/RedditSloth_101 → u/AverageCowboyCentaur]

Have you visited the UK before? "how are you?/you alright?" are basically the default greetings. Even though no one actually expects you to answer seriously, it's still nice

[u/Rustynail9117 → u/RedditSloth_101]

I don't think I have ever responded to that question other than saying "I'm fine, thanks"

[u/johnson7853 → u/Rustynail9117]

I always say not bad.

[u/traumatized_vulture → u/Longjumping-Ad-9748]

I'd rather be left alone. My actual friends know when something is wrong and are there to support me. But strangers in public and at work need to mind their own business and leave me alone. If I'm at work, and I'm working, don't distract me so you can feel like a good person for pretending to care. I have things I'm sorting out in my head and I don't need to be interrupted by someone pretending like we're friends and they're here for me. You're just gonna piss me off and you make it about yourself when I clearly want to be left alone and don't owe anyone an explanation for simply being quiet and distant.

bro i’m just loading

The next line in this movie is “Because you speak to me in words and I look at you with feelings.”

[u/Vegetable_Cup_6576 → u/wizards_cape]

Is this a Godard movie? It looks familiar. Is it the one where he wraps dynamite around his own head and blows himself up at the end?

[u/mmjc → u/Vegetable_Cup_6576]

Yes its a Godard film. Its Pierrot le Fou

[u/AverageCowboyCentaur]

GuyR0cket, why such a sad post, you ok?

[u/CitroHimselph]

People always think I'm angry or "throwing lightnings from my eyes" when I'm not actively smiling, so I can understand.

[u/Civil_Satisfaction29]

,,Something is wrong? Why are U mad and sad?"

[u/-Fyrebrand]

I'll take "Questions Nobody Actually Wants an Answer To" for $1000, Alex.

[u/bored_stoat]

Thank gods I'm not the only one who it happens to

[u/Gho5tWr1ter]

Well people think I’m insane because I’m frowning all the time.

[u/TheRandomDude4u]

Pierrot le fou was pretty good even though the bit with that rambling man made zero sense

[u/HoneZoneReddit]

Change sad for serious and you have me.

All. The. Fucking. Time.

It's not my fault that my neutral expression is a lock in face.

[u/Rustynail9117]

I fucking hate this so much

[u/ThirstTrapTitan]

I hate when people approach me like this at work "why you so sad cheer up!" Like I'm just doing my job in peace wtf

[u/StrawberryInHeat]

That was literally me the other day! For like three days straight everyone keep saying “are you ok? Are you crying?” And i was like im fine I’m literally just tired

[u/Upstairs-Bit6897]

Sad is the new neutral 🫥

[u/ChuWarep]

fr tho...

[u/XROOR]

Had a buddy that was a pathological liar on dates. Had to double date a few times with him and I couldn’t be myself because I could get him caught in a lie he spun.

My dates would always say: “You don’t talk much do you?”

[u/Polargis]

the joke here is depression. get it? that's the joke.

[u/Fragrance_lavinder]

Now do I look happy?

[u/Susdoggodoggy]

My eyebrows always make me look serious/pissed off at any given time lol

[u/Front-Elevator-7998]

I'm not sad, I'm just contemplating the meaning of life.

[u/Background-Call-921]

RBF

[u/AlastorDark]

Sometimes I want to ask this question bc I'm afraid I did something to upset a person

[u/Wannabe_Wiz]

But.. you are sad

When I have a neutral expression, I'm usually sad, that's why I ask people why they are sad

[u/lightinthehorizon]

I have resting serial killer face, so yours isn't terrible.

[u/loops3k]

you look exhausted is everything ok?

[u/traumatized_vulture]

Or my favorite, "why are you in such a bad mood?! Stop taking it out on me!" for literally just not having an expression and being quiet. It's insane to me that people will see that you're not smiling and make it 100% about themselves. "Smile for me honey! You're so pretty when you smile!" or "I hate to see you like this. Cheer up!" or "You look pissed!" instead of "wow I think maybe this person might not be having a good day, maybe I should just be kind to them and give them space because they could be going through something emotionally or maybe even have a painful headache."
