For example, when I'm at the gym in the middle of my workout, a HB will make EC but I won't be able to smile... if I'm out and a girl looks at me I will be able to :/

Help w/ being able to smile all the time?

The reason you can't smile back is because you're afraid of how she'll react. If you don't overcome that fear then you'll never smile at cute girls when they look at you. It's just approach anxiety in a different form. So go search some stuff on that. Shalom.

What i'm saying is that like, I can't smile unless I am happy/having a good time. However if what you say is true, what do I search in specific to get help for this?

people are naturally happy, your mind is either in the past or in the future, else you would be in the moment and happy

Smile at girls that are NOT hot. Do that every time you can and when you see some good reactions, realize that, hot or not, girls are girls and they're more simliar than they are different. I kinda think that if a 5 likes you then an 8 should at LEAST think you're kinda cute as long as you're a cool guy. Every time I get an IOI from a 6, I think, what's the difference between her and an 8...almost nothing...almost.

yeah I think It's not that deep.It's not like u can never smile but you cant fake smile. Fake smile is different from a genuine smile and people who are good at understanding facial expressions can tell the difference easily. Its like when you see celebrities smile when they get photographed. Anyway just think of something fun you did and you will smile or think of something nice&sexy with the girl you are looking at, something that might happen later that evening.. ;)

I kinda faced a similar dilemma as ppl often would tell me I'm "too serious" or that "I look angry." Anyways, what I did was I began every morning before leaving the house, I'd go on Youtube and watch videos of my favorite comedians, stand-up gigs, or simply pieces from funny shows and get a good laugh going. Then, I began spending some time in front of a mirror getting down my smile, basically getting the feel to it so it doesn't look like a forged smile or fake. anyways, if you don't want to do the comedian/comedy approach another thing that has worked for me is to try and think of something that makes me happy and trust me a smile will come, and not only that, it looks more genuine.
