I've heard the inattentive type is more common among women. My wife definitely fits the description. People usually mistake the blank stare for intimidation, but I know better. (⁠っ⁠˘⁠з⁠(•_•⁠ ⁠)

The blank stare isn’t really indicative of daydreaming or thinking about a problem.

Nope - just nothing at all going on in there for a blissfully quiet few minutes.

It definitely looks like RBF though. People always used to think I was mad!

Still waters run deep - or sometimes that's just frozen water.

I've got angry thinking face. That's the best, every time you're at the height of your mental powers some asshole who loves you says "Is everything ok?"
