Scorpios, is your poker face something that you wear automatically or do you consciously show some emotions and suppress others. I mean do you choose which emotions you're gonna allow others to see? For example, do you wait until someone shows you some emotions before you show them yours?

Usually when walking around I'm quite expressionless, yes. I've been told that I always look angry, or like I'm glaring at everyone around me. However, this only occurs when I'm in a stressful place or around an extremely large group of people where everyone is just a blur, and I can't even begin to process the situation without feeling nauseated. When I'm in comfortable situations, from what I've heard my stare makes me actually look quite innocent- I've been compared to a trembling fawn. Looks can be deceiving- both of these expressions are involuntary 🙂.

I would love to think that I choose which emotions I let people see, I'm very adept at controlling them but unfortunately they all play out with my uncontrollable, sometimes comically obvious facial expressions. My boyfriend told me out of the blue yesterday that I have sad eyes and a happy smile..hm. When meeting someone new, I don't necessarily even feel comfortable being emotional around them until I've known them for at least...six months I'd say.
