Everybody lies.  It may only be “white” lies, but everyone tells lies or “omits the truth” sometimes. \n\nWe start lying at around age 4 to 5 when children gain an awareness of the use and power of language.  This first lying is not malicious, but rather to find out, or test, what can manipulated in a child’s environment.  Eventually children begin to use lying to get out of trouble or get something they want. \n\nWhite lies, those concocted to protect someone’s feelings, are not a big deal at all.  The person, however, who seems to feel compelled to lie about both the small and large stuff has a problem. \n\nWe often call these folks pathological liars (which is a description, not a diagnosis).  They lie to protect themselves, look good, gain financially or socially and avoid punishment.  Quite often the person who has been deceived knows that this type of liar has to a certain extent deluded him or herself and is therefore to be somewhat pitied.\n\nA much more troubling group is those who lie a lot — and knowingly — for personal gain. These people may have a diagnosis called antisocial personality disorder, also known as being a sociopath, and often get into scrapes with the law. \n\nLying often gets worse with the passage of time. When you get away with a lie it often impels you to continue your deceptions. Also, liars often find themselves perpetrating more untruths to cover themselves. \n\nWe hold different people to different standards when it comes to telling the truth.  We expect, for example, less honesty from politicians than from scientists.  We have a vision of purity about those who are doing research, while we imagine that politicians will at least shade the truth about themselves in order to get elected. \n\nWhy do we dislike liars, especially sociopaths, so much? It’s a matter of trust.  When a person lies, they have broken a bond – an unspoken agreement to treat others as we would like to be treated.  Serious deception often makes it impossible for us to trust another person again. \n\nBecause the issue of trust is on the line, coming clean about the lie as soon as possible is the best way to mend fences.  If the truth only comes out once it is forced, repair of trust is far less likely. \n\nAs a parent, the most important message you can send your children about lying is that you always — always — want them to come clean with you.  No matter how big a whopper they have told, remind them that you would always rather hear the truth, no matter how bad it is, than be deceived.  Tell them there is really nothing more sacred in your relationship than your trust of each other. \n\nOf course, all this presupposes that we have discovered an untruth — some people are so expert at deception that it often takes a long time to find out that we have been lied to.\n\nHow, then, can we best detect whether we are being misled? There is no foolproof way, but there are often clues you can see in behavior that should make you suspicious:\n\nAvoidance of eye contact: Usually someone makes eye contact at least half the time they are talking to you.  If you notice them avoiding eye contact or looking down during a specific part of a conversation, they may well be lying.\n\nChange of voice: A variation in pitch of voice or rate of speech can be a sign of lying.  So can lots of umms and ahhs.\n\nBody language. Turning your body away, covering your face or mouth, a lot of fidgeting of hands or legs can indicate deception.\n\nContradicting yourself:. Making statements that just don’t hold together should make you suspicious. \n\nIf you lie all the time, even about unimportant things, you are likely to have a problem that will eventually -- if it hasn’t already -- cause you real relationship, financial or legal troubles. Figuring out what is driving you to lie in the first place will help heal this self-destructive behavior. This may mean going into treatment with a therapist to discover why you feel the ne

They will avert their eyes or fidget, They will also have to spend longer thinking about a lie and either provide too much detail of non at all.\nThe best thing to do is to observe them and the way they act while you know they are not lying. Then when they do lie it will be obvious to you.

If you just memorize the Lie I've seen that my friends still accidently have a twitch to the other side so it still looks as if their lying, When they started believing the lie though that is when the shift started going to the memory and sensory side. You have to memorize the lie and begin to convince yourself of it deeply otherwise you can still tell if the person your talking about is still lying to you

When looking for a scam, you need to know what a person does when they are telling the truth. If a person uses their hands when they talk, or their eyes dart around when they are having a comfortable conversation, you can calibrate their mannerisms, voice, tempo and eyes for honesty. Notice their normal mannerisms when you know they are answering the easy questions and telling the truth. This is the most critical part.\nWhen you suspect that someone is lying, you will compare their dishonest response to the way they respond when telling the truth. \nHands, head position, voice level, eye positions, shoulders, everything will be a signal when you know what to look for. \nYou need to make note of the differences in behavior that shows that an internal conflict is happening. When there is a conflict, the brain does not respond normally. It creates signals that make it impossible for the person to keep the same mannerisms, voice tone , head position, all in a congruent state as the lie is told.\nTypical body language that reveals an internal conflict: \nHands over mouth \nHand to nose\nHand to ear\nHands or fingers moving, wringing, tapping\nHead tilt to side\nHead turned away\nBody moving backwards\nBlink rate increases\nPupils contract\nEyes go down to left or right\nEyelids stay closed during the answer\nVoice tone rises\nClearing the throat \n\nDo these things mean a person is lying? Not necessarily. \nIt depends on the calibration. Remember you are looking for the differences- the thing that the body does because there is an internal conflict that causes involuntary "leakage" of the emotional charge.\n\nWords can be a great indicator that a person is about to lie: \n\nAnswering your question with a question\nRepeating the statement, rather than answering\nSay "I am telling you the truth\n"I will not lie to you"\nAccusing "Are you saying I am lying?"\nStammering, stuttering, and pausing before answering\nPointing while answering\n\nThe sound of the voice\n\nVoice raises due to tightness of vocal chords.\nAnxiety makes voice squeaky or raspy\nMumbling\nEyes\n\nEye position\nBlink rate increasing\npupils contracting\nLooking down to left or right (depending on whether the person is right or left handed)\nEye twitch- involuntary \nStaring into your eyes (look for leakage immediately)\n\nThese signals alone do not mean a person is lying. If you have calibrated properly, you will see the immediate and obvious change, or combination of behaviours that mean they are lying. Remember, it is all about the way the person tells the truth, that will tell you when they are lying. \nSome people think that they can lie by looking you right in the eyes. But, guaranteed, something else will give. Even if they have practiced lying there will be a signal somewhere else. \nA face that lacks expression can be covering up the lie- but the lack of expression and the lack of micro muscle movements can be the dead giveaway. \n\nHope this helps!

Ask her a question that is bothering you, and see how she answers you. See if she looks in your eyes when answering, or looks around the room,  at the floor etc. Usually when people are lying, they never look you in the eye.

Great topic!\n\nI am amazed that there are so many adults who do not consider some of the things they say or do not say, as a lie. For instance: sometimes people make up stories and tell it for fun. It may be a hunting story, fishing story, etc. This is done as a fantasy. The important thing to remember is that if you tell the story...you and the others must identify it is not really true....or it is a lie. Another example of a lie people do not always admit as lying is...when someone states something they think is true and then discover later that it is not true. The person really should then rectify the situation and admit they said something and found out it was not the truth. When a purposeful untruth is told, it is an outright lie. It is meant to deceive. This leads to disappointing others, others never really belive you and they eventually stop trusting you.  Then the time may come and you may be telling the truth...but too late...others don't believe you even when you do tell the truth. Some people actually believe that the only way a lie is told is in that manner. Not true! You can lie with your actions. You may cause a person to believe something not true by acting a certain way. (Example; child breaks a vase and throws it out and pretends not to know anything about it.) A lie can be done by being silent. You may cause someone to believe something by saying nothing. (Example: a mother asks the children who broke a window, and all the children know, but no-one tellls anything).The cycle of lying usually continues when one lies. The next thing one knows is they lie to cover another lie and so on. Most intelligent people, know when someone is lying to them. It doesn't change anything...except the credibility of the one who lies. Another form of lying is not telling a complete truth. Any form of not telling a complete truth or an admission of a complete truth in words or actions is a lie. \nI honestly do not intentionally lie. However, about two weeks ago we had company and this person asked me something and I did not want to go into it so I lied. When the company left. my husband said to me ..."why did you lie?" I reallly had to stop and think about it. I am a woman of value. I work hard to practice what I believe in. I am an honest person. I try hard to use tact and not lie. I usually would reply to someone who asked a personal question that I did not feel like answering with something like...why do you ask? I usually try to find an answer that will not offend the other person, but will also allow me to keep my personal life personal without lying. Sometimes, I like everyone find myself in a place I don't like to be. I feel dirty or shamed when I do that. Long story short...I felt guilty and called the person up and explained it. No one is perfect. There is not a sole alive who has not told a lie at one time or another. I can honestly say I do not lie on a daily basis, but sometimes I do find myself bordering the ethical line. I want people to trust me, I strive to be honest and keep integrity....but it is a daily struggle to be in tune with complete and open honesty!

Humans roll their eyes as a reaction to accessing information from the brain. If you are trying to recall visual information from memory, your eyes will roll up and to the left. If you are picturing a new idea typically you will roll your eyes up and to the right. This is because the left and right sides of the brain have different primary functions.

No there is not.\nIn all of my years of lying and being lied to in various walks of life I've learned that everybody lies, everybody gives it away, and detecting a lie is more detective work than "dead give-away".\nYes there are lots of bodily quirks to pick up on when someone lies. These (like the eyes for example) reflexes really do not indicate a person is lying. They rather indicate that a person is nervous. Very often that is because they are lying but sometimes it is for any one of many other reasons. For example a murderer might pass a lie detector and even fool seasoned detectives, but you might fidget and cry and do all sorts of strange things if the cops stop at your door and ask where you were yesterday even if you were home quietly minding your own business.\nThe truth is to get to the bottom of a lie you have to be aware of what a particular person does when they lie. To do this you must be calculated and patient. \n1.)Wait to be told a lie that you know is a lie and begin to note any significant or slightly unusual behaviours (such as body language and voice tone out of the ordinary).\n2.) Engage the liar in a conversation where you request as much detail about the lie as you can. Make careful note of body language etc., and note the details of the conversation. Sound interested and convinced and you should get enough info for later.\n3.) Be patient. Find more proof.\n4.) You have to wait until the "LIE" surfaces a second time. You can elicit this it can be in the same conversation.\n5.) Make sure you heard right, ask them to repeat the lie. Make note of all body language etc.\n6.) Make a note of time date or other significant information at the time so you can remember enough to be certain for yourself that you know they have been caught.\n7.) Now this is where this all pays off. You sit your liar down and YOU initiate the conversation about any suspected lie. This time you start talking like your convinced and get them to repeat the suspected lie yet again. Watch the body laguage the whole time. You do not ever have to confront them.\n\nPLEASE NOTE:\nThis is a little trick meant to find out what a PARTICULAR PERSON does when they lie. It is meant to help determine the DIFFERENCE BETWEEN nervousness due to lying and other nervous behaviour one might exhibit when they are not lying. It is not meant to find out a lie. The liar always gives it away you just have to figure it out for your own liar.\n\nYou need a lie you know is a lie and they must think you believe it. The more you talk about the lie you know the more you have to watch and see. The more lies you do it with the more accurate you will become. This is something you can do dozens of times with a coworker or nieghbor before you confront them. The more often you do it before confrontation (if you choose confrontation) the more likely  you will be accurate. \nIf you make all of this happen (which could be done with someone you know but probably not a single encounter with a stranger) you should have a solid list of reflexes, behaviours, etc, that you can apply to ONLY THAT PERSON\nYou should be able to have no more than 95% odds that you can detect A person lying. If you want to keep your friends and family don't do this to them.\nYou will be surprised (and not too happy) to know who is really lying to you and about what. But I hope this helps and hope the lie is not too big. \nREMEMBER THE HUMAN MIND IS INCREDIBLE AND NOTHING IS FOOL PROOF.

What way would you eexpect them to look. They are the same people only they dress better when not acting

Well you shouldn't be lying in the first place. It has been my experience that the truth alway's comes out. It is the nature of truth to come out and if you have to lie, be prepared when you least expect it, for the truth to come out.

Signs of Deception:\nBody Language of Lies:\n• Physical expression will be limited and stiff, with few arm and hand movements. Hand, arm and leg movement are toward their own body the liar takes up less space.\n\n• A person who is lying to you will avoid making eye contact.\n\n• Hands touching their face, throat & mouth. Touching or scratching the nose or behind their ear. Not likely to touch his chest/heart with an open hand. \n\nEmotional Gestures & Contradiction\n• Timing and duration of emotional gestures and emotions are off a normal pace. The display of emotion is delayed, stays longer it would naturally, then stops suddenly.\n\n• Timing is off between emotions gestures/expressions and words. Example: Someone says "I love it!" when receiving a gift, and then smile after making that statement, rather then at the same time the statement is made.\n\n• Gestures/expressions don’t match the verbal statement, such as frowning when saying “I love you.”\n\n• Expressions are limited to mouth movements when someone is faking emotions (like happy, surprised, sad, awe, )instead of the whole face. For example; when someone smiles naturally their whole face is involved: jaw/cheek movement, eyes and forehead push down, etc.\n\nInteractions and Reactions \n• A guilty person gets defensive. An innocent person will often go on the offensive.\n\n• A liar is uncomfortable facing his questioner/accuser and may turn his head or body away. \n\n• A liar might unconsciously place objects (book, coffee cup, etc.) between themselves and you.\n\nRelated Books:\n\n \nNever be Lied to Again \n\n\n\nBody Language  \nVerbal Context and Content\n• A liar will use your words to make answer a question. When asked, “Did you eat the last cookie?” The liar answers, “No, I did not eat the last cookie.” \n\n•A statement with a contraction is more likely to be truthful: “ I didn't do it” instead of “I did not do it”\n\n• Liars sometimes avoid "lying" by not making direct statements. They imply answers instead of denying something directly.\n\n• The guilty person may speak more than natural, adding unnecessary details to convince you... they are not comfortable with silence or pauses in the conversation.\n\n• A liar may leave out pronouns and speak in a monotonous tone. When a truthful statement is made the pronoun is emphasized as much or more than the rest of the words in a statement.\n\n• Words may be garbled and spoken softly, and syntax and grammar may be off. In other\nwords, his sentences will likely be muddled rather than emphasized.\n\nOther signs of a lie:\n• If you believe someone is lying, then change subject of a conversation quickly, a liar follows along willingly and becomes more relaxed. The guilty wants the subject changed; an innocent person may be confused by the sudden change in topics and will want to back to the previous subject.\n\n• Using humor or sarcasm to avoid a subject.\n\nFinal Notes:\nObviously, just because someone exhibits one or more of these signs does not make them a liar. The above behaviors should be compared to a persons base (normal) behavior whenever possible.\n\nI think your question and the answer can help a lot of people.\nGL
