7 Ways To Tell If Someone’s Lying To You
IMPORTANT.
1. Fidgeting
Might seem obvious, but most people aren’t aware enough to recognize their own nervous habits and then consciously fight to conceal them.
2. Sweating
Yes, we know, this feels like it’s out of a bad mob movie, but it’s still one of most common signs of raised stress levels.
3. Failure To Make Eye Contact
A very common indicator of deceit or guilt.
4. Dilated Pupils
And it they can manage to look you in the eye, check for this sign of high stress levels.
5. Elongated Pauses
If someone has to lie on the spot, they’ll usually take an extra second or two longer than normal to collect their thoughts. Listen for multiple pauses.
6. Rise In Vocal Pitch
Another sign of increased stress levels the studies have found to be more common in liars than truth tellers.
7. Will Protest Too Much
In normal conversation, if your companion uses qualifiers like ‘to be honest’ or ‘I swear’ it implies that they don’t expect to be believed or trusted. Implication of lie is higher.
Congratulations, you are now officially an expert!
And will never ever ever (probably) fall for a lie ever again.

The thing about eye contact is bull; liars often make MORE eye contact than usual to compensate and to try and make a connection to the person they’re lying to.
(The rest of this article is sketchy too, but the eye contact thing is the biggest thing) -

LOTS of people. If you’re a frequent emotional bully, you’ll find EVERYONE doing this to you every time you accuse them of something.
