Girls is there a difference between the "polite" smile and a flirting smile?

[Anonymous]

I guess some girls smile just to not come off as a bitch. How can you tell the difference? Like if he is a stranger that,you think is cute

i think it has to do a lot with the way that she smiles or smirks you know. If she gives a subtle smile then she is probably being friendly, but if she gives this big smirk that her whole cheeks lift up, then I would consider that as a flirting sign.

Must importantly though, is the eyes, people give away a lot of their secrets because of their eyes. You gotta look into her eyes when she is giving the smile I mentioned above: Can you see if she has that little spark or that blink in her eyes that sort of gives you the shivers? That is a pretty good sign that she is flirting with you. Also if a girl sort of opens her eyes wider than normal, then that is a pretty good sign that she likes you but it is tense and nervous to see you.

A smile is only one indicator of interest. Usually one isn't an indication of attraction, look for other ones, do her pupils dilate when she looks at you, does she play with her hair or try and adjust her appearance. These are two things that she will do with out thinking about it if she is attracted to you.

The polite smile is when just the ends of the lips turn up. She's just smiling with her mouth, that's it and it will quickly go away. Think about how you smile in a "polite" setting...a flirting smile is all in the eyes and face. She will smile, may even show teeth, but you'll see a quint in her eye because she's using more facial muscles. You will just be able to tell the vibe, trust your instincts.

Well, I tend to be very shy and not smile at cute guys, but if I do, I'll typically blush and try to actually look at him. If I'm just smiling at a stranger to be nice, I'll usually smile a "friendly" smile and look away while doing so. Hope that helps :)

Hard question...I think I smile the same no matter if I am interested or just being nice. I keep all of my naughty thoughts up in my head not on my lips.

Oh it's hard to say a difference!For example,I smile to everyone,It's my nature,I smile a lot and guys love it,but sometimes it's really annoying as they think I am flirting...As for you,just feel it or if you would like she'll flirt with you,make her want you lol

I would more or less say that you should pay more attention to her eyes as this is better to tell whether or not she is flirting than a smile

i could have this backwards but fake smiles tend to be bigger on the left side, do a fake smile in the mirrior to confirm. while genuine smiles are bigger on the right side you may also see a sparkle in their eye.

a polite smile only gives.

a flirting smile gives with the intention of receiving.
