Is smiling contagious?

I think smiling is contagious. What do you think?

I think it is. That's why I like smiling at random people so that they can smile and feel good even if it's just for a second.

I think smiling is very contagious .It's like laughter. It dosn't cost anything and can change someones day.
It takes more muscles to frown than smile. So smile and make someones day!

I believe it is...if it is interupted correctly. If it looks like a sneer or a sarcastic smile it can actually turn the person in a negative mood.

Yes I think so. I know when I leave a store and the cashier was super friendly that I am smiling and feel happy. Lately I have been coming across the rude ones though. boo!  I used to be a cashier so I can understand their frustration, but I always pretended to be having a good day for the customers.

Yes, I think smiling is contagious sometimes when I don't have a smile on my face and someone smiles
at me I quickly put on a smile right away  and I feel at ease.

I think it is!!! when someone is looking like  and having an awful day and people are just mean to them and you smile at them they then look like  because you just made them hate the world a little less

Generally it is, though I do get annoyed when it's a day when I'm in pain, either due to time of the month or other issues, and people try to force you to smile.  However, if people aren't dealing with any issues like that, then yes, smiling at others tends to cause them to smile.

I don't know about smiling but laughing sure is.  Sometimes I can laugh so hard that it hurts and I cry....

Yes, just like yawning, smiling IS contagious.  I'm smiling right now just thinking about it.

Smiling is supposed to be contagious, but there are certain people whom you meet in grocery stores, who will never reciprocate with a smile. Hmmm, may be they thought that it costs to smile!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I believe a smile is just as contagious as a yawn.  So take a smile out of petty cash and pass it on.

I think the same, smiling is just as contagious the way yawning and sneezing is contagious.
