Not sure what you would call it but i dont mask my reactions very well. If I'm disgusted it shows on my face, if I'm angry it shows, if im happy it shows. The only thing I can do to conceal my emotion is to hold a neutral face which is interpreted as disinterest or boredom.
It's good because I don't have to try hide anything I just do what I do and go through life answering any questions people have. But it's bad when I know I shouldn't react in a way and everyone can tell my reaction. Example someone died in my workplace and everyone was looking sad but I was smiling because I didn't know the guy and we were getting half a day off work paid. Or my girlfriend was overly upset about something I thought was trivial and she said I look like I don't care and I said yes I don't care.
The amount of times I've been in a serious conversation and had someone ask me "what's funny about that" and I have to tell myself don't answer that.
Yeah i’m really bad at hiding my responses too. people take it as insult, because it’s so easy for them they’d never let that through except on purpose. But I can’t help it.
I feel this. People can read my emotions so easily it's a problem in my life. And my neutral face doesn't help too. I'm cursed.
