Why do some people have a more intimidating face than others?

[lovelyautumtrees]

Just today a random lady told me I seem so sweet and innocent looking. That was a nice compliment but I remember many people told me that before and took advantage of me and would bully me. What makes up a mean face, and how would one make their face look meaner?

I think it has to do with your facial features
For example, slanting eyebrows, a heavy brow, a creased forehead, deep set or squinting eyes, or a naturally intense gaze can all make someone look angrier than they are. Large eyes can make people look more worried and startled. Naturally downturned lips can cause a person look like they're frowning. Some people have an RBF, so they might look annoyed or frustrated, when they actually aren't.

In my opinion, you should not you not care about what other people think, or try to change yourself for the sake of others. If people are that shallow to make assumptions about you, based on their looks, then it's their loss

They might be afraid to show it, or they feel embarrassed.
