    Telling someone they should “smile more” isn’t expressing interest. It’s a very weird demand. If you’d like to express interest in someone please consider a different approach.

      No, it’s the “you look cute” part. As a man, I rarely ever get compliments. A “you look cute” would make my entire day. And I would smile at that!

      “You should smile more” is a subtle way of saying “why are you such a stuck up bitch? Am i not good enough for you?”
